my bot's name is kevboibot. The bot post comments about Joe Biden in support of him. Not only does my bot do this but it also post submissions from politics, which involves Joe Biden, to the BotTown2 subreddit but upvotes any positive comments and submissions about Joe Biden and downvotes any negative comments and submissions about him (and vice versa for donald trump) using the textblob sentiment library.
this is my favorite thread because it talks about multiple popular democratic politicians all in one thread and even mentions a largely democratic city, New York
