Come on folks. Many of us fell for the Twitter joke concerning Vance and a couch.
IT DID NOT HAPPEN!
If we want politics to be a more honorable and humane endeavor, WE must stop passing along lies too. Our credibility suffers the longer this continues
There is certainly enough fodder to exploit whenever J.D. Vance opens his mouth.

RandomNumbers
(19,019 posts)(whichever exact type it was)
is SO equivalent to "joking" about someone running a pedophile ring or having someone killed, or claiming that an actual mass murder was staged for political effect.
Right?
I personally lean toward not spreading either kind of dis-information, but I can recognize the difference in severity between the two, and can readily accept that many can include in the "joke" category, questionable personal, non-criminal* behaviors that don't affect others; while considering false accusations of reprehensible crimes to be a different thing entirely, and completely unacceptable.
( *keeping in mind that the so called freedom lovers of the GQP would like to make LOTS of personal behaviors criminal, which sort of adds to the effect of this particular attack, I suppose)

Johnson, it's said, wanted to spread the story that his opponent liked to have sex with barnyard animals. One of LBJ's aides said, "We can't prove he's a pig f----r."
"I know that," replied Johnson. "I just want to hear him deny it."

one of the major reasons our ticket is such a kamalanomenon is because we're finally in attack mode.
we're finally hitting back.
sure it would be nice if BOTH sides played nice, but given that donnie is constantly fighting dirty AND the media constantly helps him in that regard, we HAVE to fight back.
and no, our credibility is not affected because we're not insisting it's true. it's just a humorous jab, that's all.
that fact that it isn't true and yet resonates actually helps make it all the more amusing and effective.

I'd far rather see a win than a loss with gentility. I would suggest that your priorities are out of order.
I think that we actually gain credibility by punching back. I've heard a lot of times that people won't vote Democratic because they won't vote for punching bags who think they're so high-and-mighty noble that they're "above it all. We need to own these sons of bitches everywhere. High and low.
No one actually thinks that we're in earnest about the couch jokes. However, I think a whole lot of people are really enjoying seeing the bully smacked around a bit.

Too many years of it. Can't stand it.
I've never liked people who hurt other people.
That is what these people do.
One of our posters sister was demeaned - made to feel less because she couldn't have kids. It hurt her.
They're calling to have AOC's citizenship revoked and having her kicked out of the country.
Ditto for Ilhan Omar. All racially based hatred.
I drift back to Obama .. that they had most of the GOP believing was a Muslim Kenyan to hurt him. Smearing a nice man like that. Making monkey jokes about Michelle.
They try to smear Joe Biden, one of the most honest politicians I've ever encountered into looking like he's a crook.
Both sides of my family served for generations. They didn't all get a fair shake Some died. Many suffered.
Demeaning John McCain's service .... "suckers" and "losers"
What they were doing to Tim Walz's military record really, really bothered me.
They're a bunch of ruthless, heartless, immoral, dishonest pigs.
Their whole movement is built on a mountain of lies.
Not for the good of the country but to cling to power at any cost.

(9,148 posts)Fuck Vance! He deserves it! Its high time these GQP motherfuckers had a taste of their own medicine!
Weve taken the high road for 44 years and were on the precipice of losing our democracy because we havent had the stomach to fight dirty like the right. Enough is enough! Pull no punches!

(1,284 posts)It is too much fun. Nobody is being harmed by this particular meme-ing. It is truly light hearted, if a bit sectional
It sheds a ton of hilarious light on the lies and liars of the gop too
Everybody is in on the joke too
It isnt like we are people are saying, anonymous sourcing here.
It demonstrates that Mr Trump and his Mr Vance are sorely lacking in a sense of humor.

(1,736 posts)Oh, we're Democrats, we're better than that. Okay. Sure. You stop using it. But don't step on my rights, or expect any of us to do shut up about something you don't like.
I tell you what. When they stop lying, when Vance stops impugning the service of others, from his vast experience writing press releases behind the lines, I'll stop. I don't expect any of that will happen, but I vow today, this minute, that when they stop, I'll stop.
Until then, the couch fucker can whine like the fake hillbilly po' boy he is pretending to be.

(4,728 posts)sex-with-animals memes, specifically chickens and sheep.
I've had Appalachians tell me those Baron Munchhausen type stories, hoping someone would fall for them. Also fart-sniffing stories: the same one from three widely separated sources. I can really picture Vance in the starring role.
As T.E. Lawrence said (in the movie): No prisoners!

But I've heard the chicken, sheep and sniffing stories from multiple sources over the years. This means that they're in the folklore and will resonate.

Grabbed a few too many, is it time to discuss?
Oh yeah 34 felonies and time to pay!
Hurrah it is time for him to go away!
What a relief they will all say!
And to all his billionaire donors please fuck off!

(71,457 posts)"Despite clearly being a jokeand featuring a claim easily debunked by thumbing a copy of Hillbilly Elegythe post gained traction online. On Sunday, Oliver shared some theories as to why. I think the reason it spread so fast might be that a) nobody read that fucking book, and b) it was incredibly easy to believe, he said. Then the comedian let it rip, absolutely roasting Vance and his seemingly upholstery-loving face. If you ask me to draw a man that fucks his couch, 10 times out of 10, Im drawing this guy, quipped Oliver. If you ask me to play two truths and a lie with this man, before hed even open his mouth, Id shout, The truth is he fucks his couch.

This is funny, harmless and is WORKING.

Keep pointing out how weird they are.
Keep pointing out how ridiculous they are.
And hey, I didnt hear the couchfucker deny it.
So, no.

(71,457 posts)We all know it was a joke now. But when I heard it at first I considered it might be true...Vance is a strange bird. And now another couch joke...Vance's Couch is about to write a tell-all about the pain of being replaced with a loveseat. He should have had an NDA.

(10,650 posts)I don't know. I think it should be talked about some more!
Example: What if he's elected and then Trump is committed for dementia and he becomes President? He get that 3 o'clock phone call, and it's a face-time. He's all sweaty, and lipstick smeared from humping that couch while his wife is asleep! HE. Can't. Take. The. Call!
Then what?? The call goes to his VP, Majorie Taylor Green, who's busy humping Matt Gaetz?? Still a face-time call???
And so on. If JD Vance/Bowman/Hamel is in fact a couch fucker/homo-sectional/vladimeer futon kinda guy who love to put on make-up like President Cheato, then we need to discuss.

(11,203 posts)He hasn't denied it. We're also aware of several things about JD Vance.
1. The weirdo was born James Donald Bowman. I realize that things happen in life and sometimes names get changed. Then his mother changed his name to James David Hamel. Then he took his grandparents surname Vance when he got married.
2. He's verbally attacked Trump publicly and now he's his VP choice.
3. He posts and says weird shit.

4. He's verbally attacked child-free women.
5. He's now verbally attacking Tim Walz's military service AKA swift-boating.
6. He's attempted to harassed Kamala Harris recently on a tarmac.
I say we keep this momentum against this weirdo. Karma and all that.
