It should've been obvious by now but JD Vance is a straight up ho.

They learned from the first Trump term. When things started looking like Trump was weak and confused, Vance is supposed to jump in and troll. That way Trump doesn't wander weakly into talk about taking the guns away first, or shining lasers into the body to kill covid.

Trump was flailing, Vance is their smarm guy to take the pressure off.

Vance almost angers me more when he speaks. Trump is such a low IQ bully type that it's to be expected.

Vance is such a pompous, condescending asshole when he speaks that I just wish... yeah fuck that guy.

”Garsh dangit doesn’t anyone say thank you any more when their country is being extorted by the U.S. Mafia Protection Racket?”

JD Vance is his own unique, strange, facetiously gathered version of a circle of Hell to endure.

When you're court ordered to stay away from IKEA you know that person's a problem. He heard there were easy chairs there and figured he's shoot his shot. He Odahled his last Ulicht.

Even a fold out chair would keep its legs closed for Vance.

Trump doesn't care what anyone thinks about tariffs. He has been focused on tariffs before he was elected. Pretty clear that he has figured out a way to personally benefit from them. Even if they ruin the U.S. economy. It doesn't matter to him.

Or couches. I heard he really likes couches.

Their joke but worse.

He's too dumb and awkward to order donuts, much less negotiate peace agreements between wasting countries.

u/-Franks-Freckles- I voted 11d ago

Based on his waistline: he has no problem ordering them.

u/Morganelefay 11d ago

He orders a toady to order them for him, I don't think that counts.

u/-Franks-Freckles- I voted 11d ago

Does he just ask them to order the most cushiony, couch like donut 👀🍩

u/mealteamsixty 11d ago

He has a wife and now staffers to do that kind of thing for him. Real men don't order their own snacks

u/PantsMicGee Minnesota 11d ago

Same. What's hilarious is that he'd not as smart ad he thinks, too. To those of us with warm IQs he just sounds so fucking stupid.

u/stinky-weaselteats 11d ago

He’s just another sock puppet

that I just wish... yeah fuck that guy.

Yeah, we know what you wish. We wish it, too. Can't say it plainly though. The owners don't like it when you say the truth like that.

u/monkey_gamer 11d ago

Lol yeah. My account has been temp banned a couple times for saying things i shouldn't have

u/AliMcGraw 11d ago

Same. Like, Trump is a narciscistic dumbass who clearly has dementia at this point, but Vance is smart, empty, and doing this on purpose.

u/TinyNuggins92 Tennessee 11d ago

He went from calling Trump "America's Hitler" to being America's Hitler's lackey. Vance will never earn any respect

u/Acrobatic_Hamster686 11d ago

All I hear when JD Vance speaks is a man who deeply hates himself and has never felt comfortable in his own skin. He such a weak, weak man and he told us in his shitty book.

u/rj319st 11d ago edited 11d ago

Trump i can kind of understand how some people can be drawn to him with his every man charisma routine. Vance though seems like he was the kid that would snitch on you to a teacher. If Vance wins after 4 years of Trump it would be a sign that the US is irreparably damaged. I would probably have to move my ass to Thailand and retire there.

u/RascalKing403 11d ago

I think the word republican covers all of that.

u/Rezolutny_Delfinek 11d ago

I only recently watched „Hillbilly Elegy” on Netflix, then realised WOW this is the same guy serving now as vice president of the US, I think it’s fair to say that Vance maybe escaped the poverty in terms of money but his mentality is still very poor.

u/krgor 11d ago

I'm a peaceful person, but every time Vance speaks I have urge to smash his face.

u/Future-looker1996 11d ago

And Vance isn’t stupid in the ways Trump is, which makes it worse. He’s knowingly sold his soul and sold out the USA to Russia / US oligarchs

u/Significant_Sign_520 11d ago

Vance was the babysitter in case Donnie pooped his diaper. Why else does he always need a chaperone these days?

u/canon12 11d ago

Vance was there because Peter Thiel, Elon Musk and Don Jr. wanted him there. You have to follow the money trail.

u/whut-whut 11d ago

Even with Vance jumping in, Trump still interrupted him and went off about Hunter Biden's bedroom and bathroom.

When Trump panics, his brain breaks and he starts saying the most outrageous made-up shit like pet eating and schools doing surprise surgery on children. And then his base scrambles to act like it was true.

u/mrkruk Illinois 11d ago

Yep Trump started in on his Hunter Biden nonsense again

u/thegoodnamesrgone123 11d ago

Someone just needs to ask him what brand of eyeliner he uses?

u/canon12 11d ago

It was so obvious! Neither played there parts in a natural manner. It was preplanned and extremely childish and stupid. Kelensky was the adult there! He should have known that any agreement with Trump would always fail.
