He won't even stand up for his own kids. What a pathetic man

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 53 points 2 months ago

for these people, kids are a means to an end instead of an end in themselves. like those insufferable rich hags who carry around a tiny lapdog everywhere just to show it off. either that, or the kids are "accidents" doomed to neglect. either way, i'm skeptical of the notion that they actually give a fuck

[-] golli@lemm.ee 13 points 2 months ago

Personally I don't understand these kind of people either, who endorse something that directly goes against themselves (e.g. in case of gays in conservative parties) or their children. But I think there also is another way to view this behavior:

Because besides being a father of biracial children, he is one other important thing: rich. And he only gains to get richer from playing towards the maga crowd.

So how much do we actually expect his children to suffer the consequences? They'll probably grow up privileged in good neighborhoods, get great education, own their homes and advance in their careers through connections.

[-] Triasha@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

They will be fine, thanks to the dogged efforts of Vance's political opponents.

Probably.

[-] Zink@programming.dev 3 points 2 months ago

Well he’s made it clear that to him it’s important to have children for appearances and political points.

[-] rayyy@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Shay D Vance is weird.

[-] xc2215x@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

The voters don't want him to.

[-] grte@lemmy.ca 64 points 2 months ago

This is basically like if back in 2015 after Trump insulted Ted Cruz's wife, Cruz became his VP pick and defended the insults, haha. Totally spineless, no limit to how far he will debase himself and his family for a position in the administration.

[-] ThinkBeforeYouPost@lemmy.world 28 points 2 months ago

That's normal. That's what normal people do... Right? Right!?

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 35 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Nope.

That’s what weird people do.

Normal people punch fascists for talking about their kids,

[-] jballs@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

Cruz didn't even become his VP pick though. He just defended his insults because he's a little bitch boy.

[-] Nuke_the_whales@lemmy.world 60 points 2 months ago

This is the kind of man Trump loves. You can call his wife a dog, you can call his children scum, and he'll still suck Trump's toadstool dick.

[-] MagicShel@programming.dev 11 points 2 months ago

That does sound like a weird dick.

[-] Moops@fedia.io 44 points 2 months ago

I mean, that's pretty weird.

[-] someguy3@lemmy.world 34 points 2 months ago

He complained that she is a chameleon that changes whenever it suits her.

The reporter said speaking of chameleons, you used to hate Trump and say you were a never Trumper. At which point I fucking lost it.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Trump's an acquired taste. The closer you are to his inner circle, the tastier he appears.

[-] 242@lemmy.cafe 22 points 2 months ago

It's totally reasonable to assume Vance is a spineless piece of trash who would throw his own kids under the bus to try to appeal to his racist demographic. It's reasonable because it's already happened.

[-] casmael@lemm.ee 22 points 2 months ago

That’s uhhh pretty fucking weird man

[-] misterundercoat@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago

I have a dream that one day my children will not be judged by color of their upholstery but by the comfyness of their cushions.

[-] LEDZeppelin@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

Being a cuck for the orange man is their brand identity. JD is not alone. Look at Turd Cruz - Trump calls his wife ugly and he still gargles trump’s balls twice daily

[-] TheReturnOfPEB@reddthat.com 11 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Has anyone told JD Vance that his kids are not white ?

I mean ... I have no idea what the qualifications for carrying a "white card" is these days ... but don't they generally revoke it if you are "bi" anything ?

[-] ThunderWhiskers@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

So put him on the spot. "State definitely for everyone to hear whether your children are black or white, and don't you dare change your answer ever again. Both, apparently, is not an option."

[-] Soulg@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

Indian or white* but yes completely agree

[-] massacre@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago
[-] casmael@lemm.ee 7 points 2 months ago

So like, not to insult people who are into that but like yeah fucking hell what a cuck sheesh

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social -1 points 2 months ago

I'll insult them. They're generally into that. Worms.

[-] xc2215x@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

He knows the Republican base.

[-] MNByChoice@midwest.social 2 points 2 months ago

FYI, dude is married. Possibility to mother of those children. (Wikipedia didn't say before I got board.)

[-] blarth@thelemmy.club 2 points 2 months ago

My only hope is that JD Vance is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. This can’t be real.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. 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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
