Sofa so bad for JD Vance as Trump’s VP pick faces swirling speculation
It all started with a tweet about a couch. Within hours of Donald Trump announcing the Ohio senator JD Vance as his running mate in the presidential race, a rather lurid accusation cropped up on social media.
The user of a since-deleted X account wrote last month, “can’t say for sure but he might be the first vp pick to have admitted in a ny times bestseller to fucking an inside-out latex glove shoved between two couch cushions (vance, hillbilly elegy, pp. 179-181).”
The fake page citation from Vance’s bestselling memoir Hillbilly Elegy lent credibility to what turned out to be a baseless claim, as detailed in a now-removed fact check from the Associated Press. Soon, the internet was awash in memes mocking Vance’s relationship with various pieces of furniture. “I did not have sectional relations,” one X user joked, paraphrasing Bill Clinton’s infamous quote about his extramarital affair. Another user added: “Who hasn’t been excited by the thrill of the chaise?”
Even Kamala Harris’s newly launched presidential campaign appeared to get in on the fun, tweeting: “JD Vance does not couch his hatred for women.”
If Trump kicks Vance off the ticket, I'd be interested to see who at this point would be willing to throw in with him. You have to think that list is even shorter now than it was a month ago
Yeah, dropping this VP after a such a short time, and trying to have his previous one killed, makes you wonder who would want the job.
Ted Cruz? He seems enough like Grima Wormtongue to do it.
Ted Cruz would do it, he's spineless enough to do anything Trump wanted him to do.
There's plenty of people that want the job. Try to have his previous one killed? When did this happen? You have a source?
How quickly we forget....

Garbage..Three people said? After they say someone told them? Sounds a lot like girl saying Trump lunged for the steering wheel in the presidential limo, lol.
There were gallows and chanting of “hang Mike pence’ when he decided to follow his station’s duty and not allow theft of a rightful election. There’s multiple pieces of footage from 1/6/21 that shows this.

So, how does people chanting that mean that Trump tried to have him killed???
And? Like I told that person, you're pointing to a hearsay article where three people say that another person told them that he seemed to support the idea. It's the same type of story the girl gave about Trump lunging at the Secret Service inside the Presidential limo, which we know to be false now. So I assume that's what you're calling proof?
You have a serious case of confirmation bias, only believing what you wanna believe when it suits you. Your history has plenty to back that assessment ... https://reddthat.com/post/21896576

Ya dumb
There’s plenty of crazy for him to pick from. Vance was probably the least crazy of the crazy.
What a basket of deplorables.
He still has time to go with the puppy murderer.
Tim Scott would do so many terrible things to take that spot. Horrible, degrading things.
