Couch-fucking dolphin porn seeking VP pick is an out-of-control trainwreck.

Who'd a thunk the GOP could score history's greatest own-goal mere days after Kamala caused them to shit their pants?

Didn't they choose this fucker before Kamala became the presumptive nominee? Didn't they consider Vance a victory lap on Biden?

So they chose the chud who called Trump Hitler and heroin and then publicly fellated him harder than the others?

They thought they had it already in their pockets with Trump alone so they went with the Thiel puppet to appeal to silicone valley fratboys (which, judging by Musk, worked).

Now they have two candidates that alienate everybody who's female and/or non-white. Whoopsie!

Print photos of different couches and mail them to any or all of these locations:

https://www.vance.senate.gov/office-locations/

Don’t forget to add little love notes. e.g., “Thinking of you 💋”

I love seeing this in every Vance thread.

I appreciate the encouragement. It’s my attempt at organizing a peaceful protest against Vance.

(I’m sure that’s more than he can say.)

Why is the background of that website dirty? It looks like a smudgy piece of paper.

He fucks couches, not designs websites.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Using an online mail fulfillment service and an AI image generator, you could establish an autonomous pipeline of fresh horny sofas directly to every J.D. Vance office daily.

At this point I'm getting a little suspicious with how obsessed with children he is

I’m out of the loop on the couches, cats and all that. TBH I (naively) thought they’d walk back his nomination after they realized he hated Trump’s guts.

Vance is ideologically flexible. He'll do whatever benefits Thiel, who has paid his bills for years.
