Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Clinton literally won a majority of votes.

[–] deft@ttrpg.network 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

holy fuck lmfao

the DNC shoved her in, hence why bernie didn't abdicate which is odd and not something typically done because he knew it was trash.

then she lost to Trump.

so what the fuck are you talking about? she was a "not trump" vote and the DNC forced her win in the primaries.

if she really had a chance she'd run again, she isn't because she won't win because nobody wants her lmfao

the DNC shoved her in

She won by 3 million votes.

No she didn't? You're delusional.

It is like talking to an actual retard lmfao

Bernie won every state Clinton would go on to lose. It is known the DNC ran everything past her campaign during primaries. I have no idea where you get this 3 million number but it's a lie you're the only one buying.

Nobody wanted Clinton, she was carried by the DNC and every state she lost to Trump Bernie bested her in, literally most swing states. The proof is there babe you're arguing with yourself and you know it lol

. Bernie won every state Clinton would go on to los

Bernie lost to Clinton. Full stop. Bernie couldn't even get a plurality of votes in the primary.

Bernie was dead in the water period.

He woulda beat Trump though would've won the states Clinton lost because she was uninspiring hence Jill Stein's great showing as a third party, even Rand Paul did well.

You weren't there though you literally don't know lmfao and now her career is over, why? because nobody likes her
