Can't be worse than swapping out the presidentWhat are the protocols/rules for swapping out a VP after the convention?
It is not just the youngest generation. I bought my first house in the late 90's. I was a young engineer making 50K then. But I could barely afford it even though it was a fixer upper starter home. I eventually learned it was first bought in the 1950s by a guy that worked in a local factory who had a homemaker wife and 6 kids. There is no way that high school diploma factory worker could afford that house in the 1990s and definitely not today.The basics: In the 1950s, a high school grad could get a job that paid enough for a house, car, and family. One income, no college or other professional training, bills paid. Such a family today would be homeless. There are more toys and distractions now, but also more homelessness, poverty, college grads with unpayable debt killing themselves, etc.
JD Vance is the gift that keeps on giving....Yesterday the Associated Press debunked the "rumor" that JD Vance once wrote about "fucking his couch" in his paen to white trash Hillbilly Elegy. This morning, the Associated Press retracted their debunking claim.
What happened?
Well if you have a HARDCOVER first edition, you'll see the verbiage clear as day. The ole JD got him the notion to run for public office and worked out a deal with his publisher to remove a single long paragraph from the paperback and ebook editions of his masterpiece.
The Associated Press removes a fact-check claiming JD Vance has not had sex with a couch
Here's a slightly-out-of-focus photograph of the missing verbiage from the first edition

Things are looking bad for Senator Vance.
They might have to get Glamorilla to gin up another deepfake AI video of Kamala Harris.![]()
Trying hard to make Handmaid's Tale real?JD Vance is glowing radioactive tonight, a 2021 clip of him phoning in to a hate radio station advocating a "federal response" if Roe v. Wade is overturned and pregnant Ohio citizens (mostly black, he takes pains to point out) want to board a hypothetical "George Soros* 747 with an arrival destination in a state where abortion is legal".
JD Vance wants to keep 'em barefoot 'n pregnant. Unrestricted travel to other states is solely the right of males and post-menopausal females.
* "George Soros" is MAGA dogwhistle for "filthy fucking Jews", which is not proper to say on radio until Project 2025 becomes law.
Did they not vet this guy at all?"This guy who was sentenced to four years in prison for literally walking around in the Capitol . . . We were taught it was a crazy guy with, like, the bullhorns, you know what I'm talking about? He looked like he’d be a fun guy to have a beer with, right? The Q shaman, that's what they called this guy," Vance says in the clip, which can be seen below.
He's dumber than we thought. The whole point of the fun was the words 'Dolphin' and 'Porn' were highlighted in the search result, showing that's exactly what he looked for.
In the photo, which Vance tweeted on September 11, 2021 without comment, the Hillbilly Elegy author is seen holding his infant child while looking at a table displaying several revolvers of various calibers. One vendor at a nearby table is seen sitting next to framed Nazi memorabilia, including a flag bearing a swastika, and two different Nazi war ensigns known as "Reichskriegsflagge." and a variety of Nazi war medals. One of the guns on the table Vance is standing over is a Luger pistol commonly used by Nazi soldiers during World War II.
"Pretty cool photo of JD shopping for some guns and/or framed swastikas," comedy writer Lon Harris tweeted. "Solid guy, seems like a good pick."
Writer and producer Grant Pardee (known for the 2016 series Nuclear Family) sarcastically observed that Vance was simply being "relatable" by "bringing [his] infant to a gun show" to "browse fetishized Nazi memorabilia." Writer Daisy Gardner (of 30 Rock fame) simply tweeted: "Nazi s—. Literal Nazi s—."
the thing is, those doing the vetting probably didn't see anything amiss with all this shit now re-surfacing... just another weekend for them, right?JD Vance refers to Jan. 6 "QAnon Shaman" as "a fun guy to have a beer with," in resurfaced video

Did they not vet this guy at all?
During her rise through America’s most prestigious schools, law firms and judicial clerkships, Usha Vance rarely — if ever — volunteered her opinions on the nation’s bitterly partisan politics to friends and colleagues.
But she did express revulsion at former president Donald Trump’s actions on Jan. 6, 2021.
Vance told friends she was outraged by Trump’s incitement of the deadly riot at the U.S. Capitol and lamented the social breakdown that fueled his political support, according to one friend, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive conversations.
“Usha found the incursion on the Capitol and Trump’s role in it to be deeply disturbing,” the friend recalled. “She was generally appalled by Trump, from the moment of his first election.”
Principled Republicans are few and far between.
Absolutely astonishing how many Republicans rediscover their moral base after they announce they are not seeking re-election.Principled Republicans are few and far between.
Principled Republicans is an oxymoronPrincipled Republicans are few and far between.
