Usha #Vance told friends #Trump appalled her. Now she’s working to elect him.

The potential second lady found Trump’s actions on #Jan6 “deeply disturbing,” a friend said. But #ambition & devotion to her husband ultimately drove her to a place in the campaign.

Good point.

As #Scaramucci said, how many Scaramuccis will he last?

#Vance seems to be in self-destruct mode, despite having written a bestselling book and being politically experienced.


JD #Vance is perfect: he says the same stupid shit #Trump says, but somehow breaks the spell.

If Trump talked about never fucking a couch or racist Diet Mountain Dew or childless cat ladies, no one would bat an eye.

Vance does it and suddenly people are like "wait, uh..."

Vance is actually too "on-brand." Trump needed a Pence -- someone who looked "normal" to the disengaged middle


Via Aaron Rupar:

It's fun to think about #Trump dropping #Vance, but I can't imagine it happens. Admitting an error like that is just not something Trump does. And it would look extra bad since Trump needed a new running mate in the first place bc he tried to have the old one killed. He's stuck.


Nine years ago, Hillary said around half of Trump's supporters were bigots of various stripes and despite that being a generous estimate, the right hasn't stopped whining about it since--and they convinced the press that it was a consequential slur.

This will be forgotten in 2 days...

For unspeakable reasons there is suddenly a lot of talk about couch fucking on my timeline.

I have (a photo of) the perfect couch for it:

The weasel the failed old felon picked to run at his side “wrote” an awful* book.
His book was gifted to victims to signal stupidity or bought to inflate numbers but - so it seems - not to be actually read.
You can “find” anything remotely plausible in it because nobody really knows.

* AFAIK noone admits to reading it. It may be full of very strange, yet plausible, invented stories about his life. We can only guess…


"Associated Press deletes fact-check debunking story about J.D. Vance and the couch"

https://www.rawstory.com/jd-vance-couch-story/

"The Associated Press produced a fact-check with the headline, 'No, JD Vance did not have sex with a couch.'

Hours later, the AP rewrote the headline.

'Posts spread baseless rumors about GOP vice presidential pick J.D. Vance having sex with a couch,' was the new headline Wednesday night."

Via Andrew Weissmann:

JD #Vance didn't just write the forward for the Heritage President's new book, he wrote a promotional blurb about weoponizing the Heritage ideas.

Vance: “We are now all realizing that it’s time to circle the wagons and load the muskets,” Vance raves in the blurb. “In the fights that lay ahead, these ideas are an essential weapon.”


Via Ron Filipkowski:

The architect of #Project2025 has a new book coming out where he outlines his plans in greater detail, and it just so happens that JD #Vance is the author of the Forward, he wrote a glowing review, and urged people to buy it on Twitter last month.


🧵 Via Tim Wise: 1/...

When JD #Vance says Kamala #Harris isn't "grateful" enough for America, he is repeating same trope racist white folks have always offered: Black people aren't grateful enough for all they've been "given" in this country. I have thoughts.

1st, folks of color haven't been "given" anything by America. Had it been up to most of "America" & esp most white folks they wouldn't have gotten freedom or right to vote, etc. They fought for & earned those things. They weren't gifts


Where J.D. Vance Gets His Weird, Terrifying Techno-Authoritarian Ideas.

Yes, Peter Thiel was the senator’s benefactor. But they’re both inspired by an obscure software developer who has some truly frightening thoughts about reordering society. His name is Curtis Yarvin who also goes by the pseudonym “Mencius Moldbug”.

Desperate stuff from #Vance and the #Republicans completely caught on the hop by #Biden not putting himself forward to be the #Democrat nominee.

If they knew their US history they would know Biden is not the 1st, 2nd or even 3rd president to do this…he’s the 6th! The first being erm, George Washington. The last LBJ.

Their legal bills are actually their advertising budget.

This statement from #Vance is false:

“There’s a constitutional process, the 25th amendment. If Joe Biden can’t run for president, he can’t serve as president and if they want to take him down because he’s mentally incapable of serving, invoke the 25th amendment.”

No one has declared that Biden is unfit to serve, Biden has just chosen not to put himself forward as the Democrat nominee. These are separate issues as Vance knows. And as I said, Biden is the 6th president to take this course.

Ron Filipkowski:

JD #Vance says women who haven’t given birth like Kamala #Harris are “childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives,” and have “no direct stake” in America.

"#Vance’s oration is an important phase in the ongoing evolution of right-wing #Trumpism. With his nomination, the slapdash and xenophobic excesses of Trump’s prior two campaigns are becoming refined and sharpened into a potent, albeit bastardized, brand of pseudo-populist nationalism." - #ChrisLehmann

#JDVance is suddenly worried about his extreme anti-abortion stance.

He still *is* a crusader who wants to "eliminate abortion" no matter the circumstances; he just doesn't want voters to *know* it. Because it turns out, forcing 10-year-old kids to have their rapist's baby isn't very popular!
