Excuse me, but his book VERY CLEARLY said he used a rubber glove.

Or was he raw dogging another couch while he was cheating on his wife with the couch he definitely wrote about in his book? (Chapter 11, page 180.)

Sofa, I haven’t read any clarifications on the matter. It seems like a story someone should chaise down

Now all I can think of is the my pillow wife comic that I cant fucking find, but instead its couch fucker Vance and the couch he fucks.

That’s what vetting is all about, you moron.

That said, I hope they also asked him when he wasn’t around his wife.

worldwidewave ,

I hope they didn’t, and that surprise is still yet to come

Sounds like somebody’s got a secret family

Yeah, that’s a weird thing to make a press release about. Who tells the press that they were asked if they have a secret family? And why is the weird part, according to him, of this that he was asked with his wife present? I think the weirdest part of all this is that they thought that was weird. But actually, this whole thing is weird. Something about this is off. Weird af 😬

I mean it is sensible for them to ask about it. It is maybe a little foolish of them to do it in front of his wife.

The truly hilarious part about it is that he is so stupid that he thinks (a) it’s something unusual or personal to him, instead of just vetting of candidates like they always do (b) he thinks talking to the media about it is a productive way to react to that perceived unusualness.

All I can do is look upon the GOP and smile and encourage. “Good… good… let the stupidity and incompetence flow through you.”

My “I don’t have a secret family” t-shirt has people asking a lot of questions that are already answered by my shirt.

He was asked by his Mamaw if he wanted to suck dicks. Unfortunately he was too weird to learn from Mamaw

“I’ll never forget the time I convinced myself that I was gay. I was eight or nine, maybe younger, and I stumbled upon a broadcast by some fire-and-brimstone preacher. The man spoke about the evils of homosexuals, how they had infiltrated our society, and how they were all destined for hell absent some serious repenting. At the time, the only thing I knew about gay men was that they preferred men to women. This described me perfectly: I disliked girls, and my best friend in the world was my buddy Bill. Oh no, I’m going to hell.”

When he brought up the issue with his grandmother — known to Vance as “Mamaw” — she replied bluntly: “Don’t be a fucking idiot, how would you know that you’re gay?”

When Vance explained his reasoning, she laughed.

“JD, do you want to suck dicks?” she said, according to the book.

The young Vance, apparently “flabbergasted,” said: “Of course not!”

“Then you’re not gay. And even if you did want to suck dicks, that would be okay,” she replied. “God would still love you.”

LibertyLizard ,

Based Mamaw Vance. If only he was more like her.

If only

The dude didn’t convince himself he was gay. The dude convinced himself that he convinced himself he was gay. To keep it going, he is now trying to convince the public that he convinced himself. “If everyone believes it, it must be true.” He is gay af because he not only remembered that experience, but wrote about it in a book.

To JD Vance:

Come on, bro. Just be gay. Like for real. You’re wasting your life and your wife’s life with the charade. Y’all could be having awesome sex instead of pretending. If you’re still resistant, fine. Just try it once to prove you don’t like it. It’s just once. You’ll probably cum too fast to get it over with and then you can say you didn’t like it or take a 5 min break and do it again to make sure. Haha. Omg, that would be crazy, right?

Ravenson ,

He is having awesome sex. I’m sure that Peter Thiel uses his throat goat regularly.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

Don’t be exclusionary, he might be bi and only want dicks as a sometimes treat.

SeaJ ,

I had to actually check that this was real. Mamaw seems like she was a decent person. What the fuck happened to him?

Cadeillac ,
@Cadeillac@lemmy.world avatar

He is just too weird to be decent

I don’t think that’s it, there’s plenty of decent weirdos out there.

Cadeillac ,
@Cadeillac@lemmy.world avatar

Ah, you are mistaking cool weirdos with conservative weirdos

bradorsomething ,

He’s probably that kind of weird and trying to act like it’s normal.

gedaliyah ,
@gedaliyah@lemmy.world avatar

Would he have answered differently if his wife wasn’t present?

FlyingSquid ,
@FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

I said above that would I hope for their sake that it was both and here is why… if you ask him in private, he might say yes or no whether or not that’s true. If you ask him in front of his wife, you can gauge her reaction to his answer. If he says no and they notice she reacts to that in even a way that shows she is doubting his answer, they should notice. Whether there was something to notice and they noticed it, I don’t know.

TriPolarBearz ,

Lawyer: do you have any secret family?

Vance: no

Wife: pulls out controller and presses X

Omegamanthethird ,
@Omegamanthethird@lemmy.world avatar

Regardless, I wouldn’t consider an answer to that as dependable with his wife present. Similarly if a doctor is asking about sexual activity, I wouldn’t expect them to ask in front of their SO.

If you want an honest answer, make sure it’s in confidence.

Tarquinn2049 ,

Or have a good body-language interpreter behind the glass. Though with his response, may not even need to look to the wife to see how nervous she was about it

jballs ,
@jballs@sh.itjust.works avatar

From the article:

“Oh, by the way, if I did, I’m not going to admit it in front of my wife,” Vance said, laughing.

WatDabney ,

So what was his answer?

norimee ,

Oh no! It seems like he couldn’t answer this question truthfully with his wife present. Now, a secret family isn’t so secret anymore if you tell your wife about it, is it?!

Was the correct answer yes? Judging from Trump’s standard, it wouldn’t surprise me.
