I think they'll probably want to keep discussion of the presidential race separate from GD.

Presidential Campaign. That's what has been done in the past. The idea is that all presidential campaign and election stuff goes in here, and other news goes in GD.

That's how it has been handled before, so I imagine something like that will happen now.

People here were saying Bernie would go all the way to the convention, that he was out to re-elect Trump, didn't care about anyone but himself, etc. Today he proved that wasn't true and people are still complaining. Unity goes both ways, folks.

Mostly I avoid it like the plague, but why would you want to close it down? All that hate and vitriol gotta go somewhere, I’d just as soon have it mostly confined in here so the rest of us can mostly get along on the other forums.
