- Senator JD Vance used a viral clip of Caite Upton’s 2007 Miss Teen USA pageant mistake to mock Kamala Harris, sparking backlash.
- Upton criticized Vance’s actions on social media, calling for an end to online bullying, and expressed that the viral clip had previously led to depression and suicidal thoughts.
- Vance stated he was unaware of Upton’s past mental health struggles and refused to apologize, dismissing the incident as a joke.
“Politics has gotten way too lame,” he said, adding, “I’m not going to apologize for posting a joke, but I wish the best for Caitlin.”
Then get out of politics, you fucking weirdo.
This is the time to stop using weirdo and instead just say “piece of shit.”
Nah, they’re resistant to that because their whole engine is fueled with hate. They have persecution and victim complexes. Calling them weird actually seems to affect them because their whole thing is parading around as if they’re the party for “average” aka “normal”(white) Americans.
Calling them weird actually seems to affect them
Not anymore. I think we overused it. We latched on to it because it seemed to hurt them, but now we’ve turned it into just another meaningless insult.
What makes you think that? They still seem awfully defensive IMHO.
Why not weird piece of shit?
JD Vance is a weird-ass,
mothercouch fuckin’ piece of shitNo, he’s a couch fucker, not a mother fucker.
You are absolutely right. I’ve corrected the mistake.
Could be both. He seems to want everyone to think he’s a hillbilly…
No. Fascist WANT to be called pieces of shit. They WANT you to hate them. They can’t STAND being valued weird. That’s why it works. Fascist like being despised, it makes them feel powerful and important.
He literally used a stupid Trump supporter to try to characterize Harris as stupid: “hurr hurr Harris dumb like our voters.” Republicans are literally directly insulting supporters by highlighting their ignorance and it won’t make any difference in Trump’s polling.
Stupid fuck didn’t even check to see if she was a Trump supporter before he did it. And she was. I’m guessing not so much anymore.
I’m sure she will still vote for Trump. They all roll over for him, every one.
That highly depends on whether or not she was true MAGA or just voted party line. Trump is shedding the latter as voters. Much like people on the left with Biden, they’re starting to plan to just sit out the election.
We’ll see. I’ve seen too much blind loyalty to expect that to happen in any significant numbers. This is a turnout game for Democrats, they need to get huge numbers.
Why do you think they need to get huge numbers when many previous elections were literally determined by a few thousand people?
Because Republicans turn out.
Because Republicans have installed corrupt election officials in many locations who will refuse to certify or fuck with ballots.
It needs to be way past 50%+1. Look at what’s happening in Georgia. Look at all the MAGA secretaries of state. This isn’t 2000 any more, we have an active fascist party that’s already tried one coup.
Well it’s not going to be massive. That’s just the reality. If she wins, it will not be by a lot. She will almost certainly win the popular vote though.
Who the fuck cares what this couch-fucking weirdo thinks about ANYTHING?
Are we even surprised he stated he’s “unaware” of a fact? Being unaware is his fucking centerpiece.
JD Vance once again gets caught essentially saying he hates women? Colour me not surprised. I’m very surprised this man has children.
Homie is just jealous that Harris could give a clear and concise interview without going on some sort of weird old dementia ramble like Trump.
She was miss South Carolina back then.
Was she the one who talked about the Africa and such?
And such as, yes. No bullying shall be allowed though, regardless of the comedic value.
He really thinks he can just say whatever he wants, like he is Trump or something. At least they are holding one of them accountable, kind of.
The attack just reeks of “look a woman did a thing, they’re all the same, right?” The misogynistic attacks tended to land more with the public when they were directed towards Hillary, a figure who was viewed unfavorably by a lot of people. But with kamala it feels like “well she’s a woman” is their only attack. I don’t know how the election will turn out but trump’s campaign seems desperate right now.
