    Lol. They apparently didn’t run his poll numbers. The fraction of young voters who align with GOP psycho bullshit is minimal. Vance himself is hated in his own state.

      Well I hope you’re right, but I’ve met plenty of the younger demographic that are more than willing to sacrifice their own rights in order to take away someone else’s

      How do you know if he’s hated? There’s not usually opinion polling on senators.

        A “normal” campaign would canvas and poll in such a case before a selection is made. Happens all the time.

        There’s plenty of articles out there on people in Ohio hating him. This is pretty recent and sums up a fair amount: https://www.dispatch.com/story/opinion/2024/07/15/ohio-critical-vance-trump-vice-president/74366261007/

          That’s just a list of a few people’s opinions? I still don’t see anything backing your claim that he’s unpopular. I can get a few people to write an article on how much they hate pretty much any politician in the world. Doesn’t mean they are unpopular

      I truly don’t understand people who get into/stay in relationships with people who are prejudiced. Don’t fuck Nazis, they don’t love you. Why does it need to be said?

    Donnie should probably drop out right now since he’s so old. Many people are saying it.

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!
