    Vance also said he was “outraged at Trump’s rhetoric, and I worry most of all about how welcome Muslim citizens feel in their own country. And there have always been demagogues willing to exploit the people who believe crazy shit. What seems different to me is that the Republican party offers nothing that’s as attractive as the demagogue.”

    Exploit the people who believe crazy shit. Exactly what Vance is doing now that he’s sided with the demagogue.

    Vance is even worse than a narcissist. He knows better and chooses to be evil for his own self-interest. I get why Trump likes him. He understands a life being driven by self-interest. And he knows Vance will burn everything down to advance he and Trump’s interests.

      These people are the worst indeed. They know it’s wrong, they know it’s evil but they’re still doing it and doubling down whenever they can, just to get some power.

      Fucking sociopaths.

      Vance was the liberal heartthrob until he went full MAGA so that he could become a senator.

        As a self-associated ‘liberal,’ I’d never once even heard of the guy before Trump picked him. That said, I’m not from his state, and it seems like literally everyone there hates him, so maybe the two are related.

        Either way, calling him a “heartthrob” might be embellishment.

    I love all this shit talking of Vance’s the press keeps digging up. And there seems to be so much of it! I’d love to see a steady drop of this all the way to Election Day, just to dig at Trump.

    JD Vance claimed he we was “just kidding” after texts saying he hated the police resurfaced after it was revealed he was arrested for breaking into an IKEA and abusing two dozen couches in one night.

    This is how Trump flexes his power. He owns those who once stood against him. To the weak minded- that’s all it takes.

    Trump doesn’t want a VP, he wants a doormat that will never pose a challenge to his power.

    Weird man who ejaculates into inanimate couches calls running mate and fellow sexual deviant Trump, ‘morally reprehensible’

    I don’t think this guy understands morals - I think he was parroting that opinion. He seems to lack any genuine empathy.

    ROFL what an amateur; one the one hand it is sad that this slimy alt-right Silicon Valley can’t even do the bare minimum to deflect negative attention from former president Trump. On the otherhand, I’m ready for all the tea that will be spilt throughout this campaign! As this will hurt Trump in a big way and I truly want to see Kamala Harris win! Trump, that demagogue is deeply undeserving of holding a political office; his presidency, criminal acts, and his speech that incited the failed Jan 6 Insurrection are proof enough that felon needs to be put in a padded cell.

        Eh not really. MBFC is a website ran by some random man from North Carolina. It’s his opinions on what’s biased and what isn’t.

        For example he will rate you lower if you’re critical of Israel. Meanwhile you can be a literal propaganda channel, RFA, and he will rate you highly as unbiased.
