Walz’ couch line was brilliant and a clear message that despite his humble midwestern folksiness, he’s not afraid to take shots and throw punches (even the odd low blow). Trump has thrived on being a bully - nothing shuts a bully up like a guy punching them across the face.

It makes the simps like FireItUp look extra cringe

Peoples opinion on abortion differ in various states and this seems like the only logical solution.
Except most red states don't vote outside the chambers they let the bible thumping white guys do the voting, polls show 2/3 of Americans support abortions and even in bat crazy Alabama it was 58% last year.

Governments should never have the right to tell women what to do with their body...period.

I definitely wasn't, but she's not a minor. She was born in 2001.

What the Dems want you to think.

Trumps actual stance on abortion.

So if a Republican Congress passes a nationwide abortion ban Trump is vetoing it? Pull the other leg.

Oh. You and your facts. She seemed about 16 in the vid.

Still, she is not a public figure so don't go after her. Scumbags.

She’s a vegetarian.

Now the rant by Ted Cruz about his steaks being taken by Kamala make sense.

As someone with no dog in this fight, I gotta say, Harris is just a chucklehead and a puppet. Watching these Republications lose it on Reddit/Instagram is pretty hilarious tho.

Let me know when you win elections to four different (and increasingly prestigious) positions.

A "puppet".

I feel the need to post this lest a certain someone comes back claiming misinformation.

Quote:
The false rumor began after an X user made up that Vance's 2016 memoir, Hillbilly Elegy, included a passage about having sex with an "inside-out latex glove shoved between two couch cushions." There is no such mention in Vance's book. But the joke, which was posted on July 15, included a fake citation with page numbers, leading many to believe it was an authentic anecdote.

I’m sure most get that it’s a joke, and a very funny one too.

I’m not sure it matters whether people know it’s a joke or not.

Once you’ve hit a point where you can’t tell if people are joking you ####ed a couch or people actually think it’s true… you’re the joke. And there’s no coming back.

JD Vance will now forever be associated with couches in the same way that Rick Santorum is associated with, uh, santorum.
