    Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has been the foremost practitioner of the “call them weird” campaign strategy, but Harris has deployed it as well. It resonates with normal people, who just want to live their lives and keep the government out of their underwear and have Thanksgiving dinner without their weird uncle starting some weird fight about some weird Fox News talking head who is still obsessed about finishing fifth in a college swim meet many years ago.

    Nailed it

        Are people still talking about JD Vance having sex with a couch? We need to put to bed the idea of JD Vance having sex with a couch. It’s not appropriate for people to think of Vice Presidential candidate JD Vance having sex with a couch. JD Vance has gone on record to deny that he has had bare skin contact with a couch within the last 5 years. It’s absurd that JD Vance was banned from a Cleveland area IKEA after making sweet, passionate love to a KIVIK Sofa Chaise.

        Once again, there is no evidence of JD Vance having sex with a couch. You need to stop calling JD Vance a couchfucker.

          Look, I don’t know if JD Vance had sex with a couch. I don’t even know if JD Vance had sex with couch cushions. But yes, I’ve heard that JD Vance did not WRITE that he had sex with a couch in his book. I don’t know if JD Vance wrote he had sex with a couch somewhere else, though.

          John Oliver called Vance’s staff to ask and they hung up on Oliver, which was reported as ‘not a “no”’, so I had been thinking, ‘ya know? maybe that JD Vance guy really is a couchfucker, who knows?’ But here you’re saying he’s denied it? Or partially denied it? Well I don’t know what to think now, but I guess it is safer to presume JD Vance having sex with a couch is probably more legend than fact. Certainly, JD Vance having sex with a couch isn’t something you’d want to discuss in polite society or political debate because we’ve no proof and a possible denial.

            Has anyone spoken with the couch? Maybe it’s a willing participant in this sexual deviancy. I’m serious, is it even sex if someone uses a latex glove to ejaculate a couch? Do you think he had a name for the couch or was it just a spur of the moment thing? I’m starting to see your point… It was very likely unwanted behavior. Couches are not normally fucked with a latex glove covered cock. It was violated.

            I’m not saying JD Vance fucked a couch but if he did it might have been something more serious than is being discussed.

        Not just a couch, probably some weird sectional with a chaise on one side and maybe a recliner on the other meant for a more “cinematic” experience.

    LOL. At first, I was like “ugh, please don’t editorialize the post title” but then I clicked the link.

        Just goes to show you can be spicy and credible at the same time.

        Also, I don’t think the headlines are typically factored into credibility ratings (I could be wrong on that, though). Otherwise, no media outlet would have a shred of it. I guess that’s just being realistic to the click-bait world we live in.

    Hey look! It’s Dementia Don the racist rapist with 34 felonies that can’t complete a coherent sentence, and his weirdo side kick, couch fucker. You may better know him as the guy that talked shit about Dementia Don, referring to him as Hitler for one fine example.
