      ✔️ - couch fucker
      ✔️ - dolphin porn connoisseur
      ✔️ - vice-presidential / presidential candidate stalker

      JD sure is stacking up those bona fides

        Jd is a creepy weirdo, but the couch story was made up.

        Not directed at you (unless you already knew it was fake, I guess) - I fucking hate it when people feel the need to make up stuff about someone who already has plenty of real red flags that need attention.

          Beating them at their own dishonest game has worked much better than trying to fact check them, and getting completely outpaced, ever did.

            From an outside perspective on the other side of the world, I disagree. Any lie, once uncovered, makes it so much easier for even the the worst positions to be defended. ‘See, they have to make shit up about us, they have nothing’. Bam, now even all the other factual points are discredited in the eyes of many people who may have been on the fence.

                Really? You haven’t seen a rise in facts being deemed false? Or maybe news being deemed fake? Maybe there’s even been a new term created for it that is being thrown around a lot by one side in particular.

                Doesn’t seem like a good idea to give them more examples they can point to when they want to discredit your facts

                  That’s not at all the assertion you made.

                  What I haven’t seen was any effective debunking that moved the needle.

              Okay you get on stage and make a salient point about how you did infact not fuck a couch.

            Because you can’t prove something like that happened or didn’t so they wanted to protect their image and stick with only things that can actually be fact checked.

            It can be proven that the quote from his book is fake, but it can’t be proven that he doesn’t fuck soft, plum couches

    He’s following Harris around because Trump is literally too old and tired to do Harris’ level of campaigning. And in a few hours Harris will have a VP also running around. Best of luck JD. Harris has been flying to several states a day.

    This part is amazing:

    Vance needled Harris on Monday for not being more accessible to reporters herself.

    “This moment could set off a real economic calamity around the globe,” he wrote on X. “It requires steady leadership—the kind President Trump delivered for four years. Kamala Harris is too afraid to answer media questions and cannot lead us in these troubled times.”

    Things are dire! We need leadership! Why isn’t the vice president giving press conferences?
