Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- 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:

- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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!

Who we voting for? Janet Mills?
Are we going to vote for a rapist after all of the yelling about Trump?
It's not too late for him to drop out of the race and be replaced, most likely by Janet Mills. Internal pressure appears to be necessary. Ceding the election to Susan Collins is not a great option. She'll keep doing what she has been doing.
I hope he has the grace to drop out.
I hope you have the grace to not judge him until all the facts are in.
Not judging, just don't wish for a repeat of 2024. Joe Biden prolonging the campaign and bowing too late.
The facts like his contract mercenary work in Afghanistan, his Nazi tattoo, and his other accusations of sexual assault and rape?
Yeah. I'll wait for more of the facts to come in. /s
This is disgusting.
I agree
Not a Mainer (and I bet you aren't either) but I would vote for the policy, not the person.
And that's how we have a child rapist as president.
The end justifies the means, right?
The pre-incumbency personal life:
That's your candidate. That's the guy you want to make one of the 100 most powerful people in the country.
You're out here calling other people 'numbnuts', the fucking gall.
You've convinced me. I'm shilling for Susan Collins 100% now. I see now that it was my nuts that were numb the whole time.
This account is henceforth Pro Trump

At least you're consistent about supporting rapists.

Doing it a second time doesn't make it more clever.
It loops back on the third though, doesnt it?
