"It’s a good thing that Vance hasn’t murdered defenseless animals like South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem,"

brutal phrasing!!

(my mother has never written for a living nor even as a hobby really, but she was always quick to correct me for leaving out the distinguishing "has/have" at the end of those ...

"Vance has no relevant foreign policy experience, either, unlike Nikki Haley, Tim Scott, or Marco Rubio,"

Frankly I would prefer no experience to the experience those three bring.

JD is stiff and disconnected! I am not sure he is human! He comes across as an adroit.

Four years? This asshole is going to Richard the III the orange blimp first opportunity and try to become king.

Imagine Peter Thiel sitting in the White House as they exchange his entire blood supply through hemobiosis as he directs lil JD on what he wants him to do next.

If Trump wins, Vance will pull a very fast disappearing act.

There are categories of violence. "His face makes me think of the Tango man, but I want him on the receiving end" doesn't really qualify.

SER writing about Vance “he resents the “elites” but also wants to be part of them. “

Same as Trump

Is there trouble in MAGAt paradise? That Fuentes guy and other particularly loathsome cretins of that vile GQP subset apparently weren’t aware that Vance’s wife is one of those brown people, and their children are of mixed, not totally pure-white, racial origin. Which makes me wonder, irresponsibly, if Donnie’s would-be assassin belonged to that MAGAt subset? Fissures in the party, is what I’m just asking questions about. That’d be a real shame.

keep in mind, the position of the wife in the "traditional family" (as a concept in the regressive authoritarian social hierarchy) is as "property" and to be "won" by the most alpha of the group. I'm guessing the racial purity trolls are suspicious, but ultimately consider it no different than any conquest/spoils of the "lesser races" and just one step above Asian mail order bride.

I would really love to see Trae Crowder’s latest take on JD Vance’s Hillbilly-ism get more exposure.

(Ex.: On drinking at a bar w/ JD: “It was like pounding beers with a spreadsheet.”) The Biden campaign could pick up on some of Trae’s first-person experiences with the guy.

And he’s flying straight to Milwaukee for an appearance at the RNC tonight. I wonder if he’ll speak on the topic of prison reform, since that’s what he’s declared will be his new mission?

"Prison Reform" == "Republicans cannot be sent to prison, ever."

I’m wondering if I’m the only one who, when reading that JD Vance has a son named Vivek, immediately thought of Ethel Mertz?

Chuck Todd thinks Vance is a 1984 Democrat.

As Obama famously said, "Fuck you, Chuck Todd."

1984 Democrat; these assholes just play in our faces because people keep giving them clicks and clout.

Welp. I’m convinced. Biden hasn’t done enough for union workers so I am going to vote for this populist Vance guy…

I can’t stand looking at Vance either. That baby face trying to look like an adult by growing a beard is just creepy. Even creepier is all the misogyny and hate filled rhetoric. It won’t go well for him trying to out trump Trump.

Also, Vance is one of the fakest Senators after Fake Cornpone Kennedy. He brings nothing to the ticket.

You also know that the assholes would be voting for him despite him being a venture capitalist because it is NOT about the economy. It never was about the economy. It's about their racial position. Because venture capital is half the reason the big industrial jobs they lionize in the Rust Belt were taken away.

And only one candidate has actually been bringing them back, it's Joe Biden. So folks need to start sharing those clips where he talks about that.

Really, Vance/Senator Butt Hair Sculpture brings NOTHING to the fascist ticket except his being a willing footsoldier. And of course if he screws up he'll be discarded just like Pence was.
