Yeah, it was so devastating for trump to mock vets. Completely lost that demographic. Cost him the election. Oh, wait.

He’s not under fire for anything. “Liberal” media wants you to think this is gonna be something. Don’t believe the lie. Zero things will happen to him.

FuglyDuck@lemmy.world · 31 pts · 217d

He might get his junk snagged on another loose couch spring again. He really needs to get that fixed.

Vance knows better. His pre-VP quotes and his education show as much. Vance is a special kind of evil. He traded his conscience for power.

He’s also not Trump. The cultists won’t follow him to the same depths of depravity.

The mediocrity of Shady's existence will get him nowhere once he is no longer attached to the weird orange god that he prays to.

His real god is the weird red one (theil)

Like pedo, like couch fucker.

NoForwadSlashS@piefed.social · 17 pts · 216d (5 replies)

I'm starting to think he has been ok with the couch fucking jokes because nobody is labelling him a pedo.

It's not safe for young couches

I don't imagine old cracked leather would feel so good

A little bit of lube and even the crustiest gaping maw seems warm and inviting?

“All publicity is good publicity”? No one is going to forget his name

Redditsux@lemmy.world · 24 pts · 217d

Vance is just another spineless asshole with no values. Typical lawyer.

inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world · 24 pts · 216d

Under fire...

Republicans mock veterans every day and veterans and others who put stupid bumper stickers on their cars still vote for Republicans in droves.

None of this matters to then because he's got the hard R.

PapaStevesy@lemmy.world · 18 pts · 216d (5 replies)

Call me when he's on fire

MehBlah@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 216d (4 replies)

I don't wish him dead. I wish him powerless and punished for his crimes.

PapaStevesy@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 215d (1 reply)

Who said anything about dead

MehBlah@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 215d

Very few people who are on fire live long. Wishing someone on fire or dead is something he does daily. I have no urge to be anything like him.

ayyy@sh.itjust.works · 5 pts · 216d (1 reply)

I wish for him to be treated the same way he treats others. And right now he’s doing a lot of anbducting and murdering.

MehBlah@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 216d

I don't want to be like him.

What, he thinks he can get away with it like Trump did?

melsaskca@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 215d

Mirroring the boss is a corporate thing. Completely normal. /s

modus@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 215d

I'm sure his career is over.

Eat my ass you irredeemable cunt

Hypnotoad_@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 215d

He's not worthy of your ass being eaten. Fucking pond scum

MAGA doesn't care. They have found their prince.

chaogomu@lemmy.world · 19 pts · 216d

It's nice that you think that, Vance has zero charisma. Without Peter Thiel, Vance would still be a nobody in Ohio with a different name, but still fucking couches.

Vance might be next in line if Trump dies, but that's literally the only way for him to sit in the big chair.

He's just as disposable to Trump as Pence was, and Trump who is jealous of power, has actually put in effort to keep anyone from being named heir apparent, because that would mean sharing even a scrap of power.

No, Trump will keep pitting his followers against each other until he dies, at which point he doesn't care if the world ends.

It's the reason his kids aren't involved in the administration this time around. If Trump is unwilling to share power with his own children, what chance does a spineless sack like Vance have?

?

Maga hates Vance.

TrickDacy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 216d (2 replies)

.....says who? Literally never heard of one Republican criticizing him.

foggy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 216d (1 reply)

Literally all of them.

He's married to an Indian Hindu woman. MAGA isn't okay with that.

They constantly call him a race mixer. And worse.

TrickDacy@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 216d

By this logic, MAGA now is anti-trump because he's threatened to take their guns multiple times now.

Disabled combat veteran had nothing to do with it, he just called her stupid.

The article is more demeaning than the quote.

USians can't use archive.is anymore.

BakedCatboy@lemmy.ml · 6 pts · 217d (1 reply)

Why not?

Maeve@kbin.earth · 6 pts · 217d

We're all probably already on watchlists and the owner is running a botnet for reasons.

Works fine for my USian self.

Maeve@kbin.earth · 0 pts · 217d

I really didn't care about being a part of that person's bonnet either, assuming their stated reasoning, for my own reasons; but if you're going to be on the watchlists and get locked up or killed, there are worthy protests about, if you are near any.

Someonelol@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 216d (1 reply)

What an odd name for those from the US. Sounds like you're calling us citizens from the fictional country of Usea.

Maeve@kbin.earth · 2 pts · 216d

America is more than the USA

chaogomu@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 216d

Which is fine, archive.org is better since the people running it aren't running a botnet.

It also has the way back machine that is also better.
