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!

Shocker: He's a racist.
Right after Haley denied America was a racist country too. Womp-womp.
She gets what she deserves.
Damn that seems to be unusual lately.
Racists rarely seem to know what racism is. They think if you're not owning slaves you can't possibly be racist. I guess they think it is simply a fact that some groups of people are better than others. Makes me want to slap the everliving shit out of each and every one of them.
He’s obviously racist, but I don’t think this has anything to do with race. He is clearly making an elementary school level joke by working the word nimrod into her name, as they begin with the same syllable.
Conservatives seem to love doing this to people they dislike, seemingly because they aren’t smart enough to come up with actual attacks based on facts and logic.
Yeah it’s like the Desanctimonious thing.
Though you get it from the left too when you see people referring to Trump by his ancestral name Drumpf.
That's not what he's doing. He's trying to highlight the fact that she isn't white to his audience, who would be less likely to support a non-white candidate. This may even force her to comment on the issue, and whichever way she answers would decrease her chances of being selected as front-runner even further.
