    “This should be a monument to American greatness,” he said, later adding: “We do not have to live like this.”

    Saying the right thing for the wrong reason.

    I should remind Couch Fucker Baby Man that protestors at Kent State started with chants and ended with throwing rocks before the National Guard shot 30 people. This will only end with innocent people getting hurt.

    JD Vance maybe dyed his hair to escape a life of crime? To be safe maybe we shouldn’t let him near burgers, couches, or political offices.

    Hot Take: If someone was calling you a couch-fucker, would you care? You’ve never fucked a couch. Some guy on the internet said that one time, and the rest of the Libs latched on. Whatever, rolls right off.

    Now, if instead you called him a rapist supporter, or pedophile adjacent, it might carry some weight. The couch-fucker thing doesn’t phase him, because it’s childish and likely untrue. Lets change the discourse.

      I care more about what it does to his support. Couch fucker highlights that there’s something really off about him. Meanwhile his supporters don’t care if he supports rapists and pedophiles or they wouldn’t be Republicans. Just call him both

      Yes. I would care. I’m a piece of shit conservative who lives and dies by optics. I’m trying to be president. The moment I’m seen as just a silly little couch fucker I will be ripped apart by the mob.

      That’s why me and my fellow conservatives are so obviously unaffected. We think about how others will perceive us. We think about it and then we do a little dance so others know we’re above it all.

      Even if I don’t care I can’t afford to let people think I do. Trump may be a successful child rapist but this is still a country full of people who will drop you for… seeming excited, or looking silly in a tank, or denying you are a crook.

      (I imagined I was Vance. Normal people wouldn’t care. A maga vice president is not like your coworkers and neighbors though.)

    It doesn’t matter. They know they aren’t liked. They aren’t afraid so they will continue. Booing them won’t change anything. We are officially at the part in history where the guillotines come out.

      It won’t change Jizzedina Davenport Vance’s mind. It will embolden others to do the same and eventually maybe he gets a proper crowd-sourced spa treatment.

    James Donald Bowman is a mental midget with the IQ of a fence post.

    And I will deadname him in every thread that he’s mentioned in.
