      It’s because JD vance is a fucking weirdo. I didn’t like pushing false stories about people, but he’s just such a smarmy motherfucker it fits so well. He is a detestable person with detestable views.

        No. It’s clearly a stupid thing to do. Being detached from the complex truth of things is 90% of the problem with mankind, as far as politics go. I thought there was substance behind these jokes but it’s all made up.

        I’m sure there’s plenty of real things to underscore what a massive duche Trump VP is. Making things up about him, or anybody else, should be illegal (and it is) for good reasons.

            I don’t know, you tell me. It looks like we are considering those fair game to gain the upper hand on our opposition…

            EDIT: oh you meant the legality? Well, it’s America so the law doesn’t really apply the way one would expect.

              The difference is satire vs disinformation; nobody with any brains actually believes Vance fucked a couch, and every time I’ve seen it queried anywhere it’s always stated as a completely fake dumb joke.

              It’s just fucking funny because fascists are creepy snowflakes, and it gets under their skin.

          It’s great to see what tiny issues resonate with their massive self doubt though, tiny hands or fucking couches

            I didn’t mean to generalyze. You are clearly stupid, since you can’t imagine a world where, I don’t know, Jordan Peterson has hidden in Russia to go on a drug induced coma to fix his drug addiction and there’s some tangential validity to one VP potential pansexual urges.

      The couch is a metaphor for American political discourse. JD, the crude white “Everyman” that has been rawdogging it a la Gingrich for the past several decades. This went over your head?

        Trump never had a mandate from heaven, primarily because heaven does not exists and if it did exist it wouldn’t grant any kind of mandate since the point is to let stuff go any which way and then judge souls after death.

      It’s not at all that. It’s too reflect what the republicans have done for years now. But this story is funny and obviously fake so it’s even more funny when you can see it actually getting under the skin of vance and other republicans. That’s why it gets repeated so often. I understand this and I’m not even American.

        To* reflect?

        So it’s not that it’s wrong it was all about envying them and finally we can engage in the same behaviour too?

          Glenn Beck raped and killed a girl in 1984. JD Vance raped and killed a couch in 2004. When will Americans wake up and stop them?

            I’m concerned that there was a live couch to kill. Did he at least take the leather and uh, upholster a couch with it?
