The best part is that it seems like the more people get to know him, the more gross they find him. Couch jokes aside, the guy's actual positions and beliefs are fucking abhorrent.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

It was reported ^[1] he had lower favorability ratings in his home state than nationwide. The better you know him the more you hate him.
Given that Trump is from New York, you could also say the same about him.
Ashcroft, before getting appointed to the W cabinet or attorney general or whatever, lost a vote in his home state to a dead man. No joke. I only know because David Cross talked about it on Shut Up You Fucking Baby.
Reminds me of the time most of Paul Gosar's siblings* appeared in his opponents campaign ad to try and warn people about how awful he is.
*the other 3 decided to stay out of it, making him 0 for 9 when it comes to endorsements from his own freakishly large crowd of brothers and sisters.
The fact that he was disliked immediately makes it wild that people only dislike him more as time goes on.
The couch stuff tames him.
Yeah, ever seen a My Pillow ad pic? There's NO way he doesn't fuck those pillows.
He likes 'em lumpy
Are they attacks? Or are they just reporting on the weird shit he says and does? Seems like Vance is his own worst enemy.
I guess it depends on how it's couched.
Sofa, so good.
They put out a news article stating that he is normal.
I cannot think of a less normal thing to do.
Like Ted Cruz, Jorkin Depeanus Vance (his real name, people are telling me) is definitely a real normal human being. Definitely neither one is a collection of organisms wearing a skin suit.
*Jance Dance Vance.
I've seen his long- form birth certificate.
This is all entirely false. He was born James Donald Bowman.
He changed it to Jorkin Depeanux Vance.
De-peanus?
Of dicks?
It's pronounced De-paynus.
Ah 🧐
It's almost funnier than Frank providing a certificate that he doesn't have "Donkey Brains" in It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TT4vVLvvb2U
It's like writing a song about not diddling kids, to get people to think you don't diddle kids.
New polling shared exclusively with Semafor shows Democrats’ attacks on JD Vance’s views on abortion, divorce and “childless cat ladies” are sticking with voters.
I mean, "democratic attacks" is not the right description when it's JD that's the problem and the "attacks" are pointing out that he's neither a good guy nor a good candidate.
JFC, a guy fucks a couch and can’t run for veep. I guess times are changing.
That's what I likes about yous.
"YOUR SISTER'S HOT, WAYNE! There! I said it!"
Dude is just a genuinely weird guy. I'm not even trying to lean into the weird thing, he just is.
