    Remember the terrorist fist jab? The tan suit fiasco. Obamacare death panels. The pedophile Pizza gate conspiracy?

    And they’re upset about being called weird couch lovers?

    unfortunately, while i can’t stand hasan for being an absolutely insufferable human, he does make a good point here (mostly) ignoring the technicalities (mostly just not being 100% accurate, which, who cares lmao)

    republicans are finally getting a taste of their own medicine, and they do not like it.

    Hey Matt remember how said everyone wants to have sex with children, and the problem with liberals is that they say they don’t so they must be lying about it? Yeah. Now that’s true and fucked up, couch fucking is fairly normal in contrast.

    Sidenote: I hate when people refer to women by their first names and men by their lasts. Would it be so difficult to call it the Harris campaign?

      Politicians are called by their more interesting name, but hundreds of years of male rule have rendered all male given names boring and all female given names exciting

      Actually it would because their whole thing is that a brown woman is undeserving of that respect. She needs to be a Proper Minority Woman - pumping out babies (but not too many, as to not out-reproduce white 'Muricans) and being exploited by corporations while supporting her White Alpha Male cuck husband.

      Personally, I’m inclined to use Kamala Harris’ first name just because it’s fun to say. It has a rhythm and repetition to it. Also, we’ve already had a President Harrison, so it distinguishes her.

      With Hillary Rodham Clinton, I usually used her first name, initials, or full name to distinguish her from her husband. As much as I loath that she was always in his shadow, she was a force to be reckoned with. They may be a power couple, but she deserves her own recognition.

      As for Tim Walz, Tim is just too common and uninteresting. Walz has character and it’s close to waltz.

      That drove me crazy in 2016 and I’ve been pleasantly surprised that, outside of weirdos on Twitter, it’s mostly been called the HARRIS campaign.

      If that’s why people refer to politicians by first name, why does everyone say Bernie instead of Sanders? Or Teddy instead of Roosevelt?

      I think the rule is that you get first name treatment if you’re further left than a neoliberal, or if you have a more famous relative.

      They think Kamala sounds foreign enough to make the racists mad.

      See also “Barack HUSSEIN Obama.” Which Trump uses regularly on his dumb website.

    Couch memes are fine, but I still don’t understand why we’re ignoring his dolphin fetish.

        From https://www.indy100.com/politics/jd-vance-dolphin-search-history:

        Back in February, long before he was a potential vice president, Vance shared a screengrab from a X/Twitter account called ‘Crazy Clips’ which showed a video of a woman getting attacked by a dolphin. The post read ‘woman gets violated by a dolphin and enjoys it.’

        Now apart from the clip being a bit weird, especially for a notable US politician to be sharing, the big thing that people have picked up on is that the words ‘dolphin’ and ‘woman’ were highlighted in the tweet.

        Given how X/Twitter’s search engine works it is therefore likely that Vance, or someone else, had searched for these specific words in order to find the post.

      I mean we’re just asking questions here. It would be very simple for him to unambiguously disavow his couch and dolphin fetish, so by choosing to stay silent it seems as if he is choosing to let us work from our own assumptions.

      The couch one is so much more believable that it sticks better. Like they’re trying to push that Tim walz drinks horse cum but it’s so stupid it hasn’t spread much. Now if they targeted vaush with that rumor…

        The irony is that the dolphin thing isn’t entirely fictional.

    Their crocodile tears just make them look more like the children they detest every day.

    Sidenote: the phrase “your boos mean nothing, I’ve seen what makes you cheer” is getting overused, but like… It’s just so fitting how can you not use it.
