Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Oh you can definitely be both of those things, you just can't say it out loud publicly. That's the only thing he messed up in Republicans' eyes
I don't know. IMO we'd have to re-run the experiment controlling for the type of pornography to be certain.
I'm curious how many votes he lost for being black and how many for being a nazi. I have a guess which number is greater.
Prolly lost more votes for getting outed as a porn addict rather than being a nazi.
JD Vance is openly looking into zoophilic porn and republicans don't mind it.
he's just trying to get called something other than couchfucker.
unforntunately, couchfucker sticks harder than goatfucker.
Which reminds me of that old joke: "but you fuck one coach..."
Edit: just spotted my typo... I'll leave it in😊
but he hasn't even fucked a couch!
Or so he insists. One doth protest too much, methinks.
I never said anyone did, i was just reminded about a joke describing how some actions overshadows other activities when retold among peers.
Sorry, my joke didn’t quite land- “couchfucker” stuck and he “didn’t even fuck a coach one time.”
(He does protest a bit much though. Maybe he tried it after it came out, or something.)
Made out with a hot dog?? Oh my god, that was ONE TIME!
I wish I knew how to respond to this... but I can't even...
"A good chunk of those sticking by Robinson may only be doing so because he is a Republican."
No. Shit. Lol
When asked whether Vance believes Robinson’s denial that the comments were made by him, Vance said that the situation needed to “play out.”
“I don’t not believe him, I don’t believe him — I just think that you have to let these things sometimes play out in the court of public opinion."
Remember that for Republicans it's not a matter of how despicable a candidate is, it's only a matter of if they're popular or not. Vance came right out and said that the truth doesn't matter, just public opinion. If 50.1% of voters in North Carolina were going to vote for Robinson, the GOP wouldn't care what he said. If that number was 49.9%, it wouldn't matter if he was an amalgamation of Jesus Christ and Captain America, they'd throw him to the curb and claim they'd never heard of him.
They have no principles. The only thing they believe in is power; getting it, and using it against the people they hate. That is their only true ideology.
Democrat Josh Stein up 53% to Robinson’s 36%
JFC, how is it not 95% to 5%?
He's a self-loathing black republican. And a self-described black nazi. He's like a unicorn to Republicans.
Are we sure the public notoriety over his past isn’t his kink?
I want his defeat to be written in history books. I want his name to be remembered in history the way we remember Darwin Awards winners.
This guy is pure lead brains.
