A politician who tells it like it is? A guy you could, God forbid, have a beer with? A veteran even, but with working class cred and a love of video games. A total unknown on the national level, but beloved by his constituents… You couldn’t order a more perfect veep off a menu. It’s almost surreal
What’s even better is that this is really him. Not a character, not adapting to the political race.
Minnesotans are sad to lose him as governor, but he’ll be great as VP and definitely qualified to step in if something happened to Harris.
If it helps save democracy, its a sacrifice we’re willing to wait. Our bisexual, indigenous lieutenant governor will be fine as his replacement.
Here, here!
I wanna have a beer with Walsh and share a joint with Sanders.
Or maybe visa versa. Idk either way sounds like a good time
I gotta say, you write in a very similar way to Anthony Bourdain. The cadence especially. I actually read it in his voice, well done.
It was totally accidental, but that’s one one of the finest compliments I’ve ever been paid. I read Kitchen Confidential at a formative age, so I’m glad to have memorialized him however fleetingly in my dotage.
Didn’t he rape children overseas and that’s why he killed himself? Because you knew it was going to get out?Nope I was WAY off. Don’t believe anything you hear, I should have looked deeper before accepting it as fact
Couldn’t literally be the opposite. His partner Asia Argento, ironically a big proponent in the #metoo movement, got outed by fucking a 17 year old actor on set. Apparently he didn’t want her seeing him, despite being open, but after some posts of them together on social he killed himself a few weeks later.
You gotta source for that? He literally doesn’t have a controversies/scandals page on his wiki.
I hope tourte right.

“the expansion of Israel and its proxies is an absolute, fundamental necessity for the United States to have the steady leadership there”
The average person you meet down the street has less thirst for blood and would make a better politician.
Watch how quickly all these accounts shut the fuck up about Gaza the second the clock strikes 12:01 Jan 20, 2025. I’m honestly kinda disappointed in the extreme low effort the troll farms are putting in this season. It’s like they know Trump is gonna lose, so there’s no fun anymore in it.
Hopefully Putin gives them the ole Window March for failing so spectacularly.
I fucking love waltz. I’m fairly positive on Kamala, but I absolutely love waltz. He may be my favorite politician atm.

Better than that tiny mushroom you’re licking.
Couldn’t hear you with Trump’s tiny cock in your mouth.
I choose not to lick anything and simply follow facts and logic

You “fucking” “absolutely” love waltz so i’m gonna guess you agree with his policies:
“the expansion of Israel and its proxies is an absolute, fundamental necessity for the United States to have the steady leadership there”

Show me the lie.
Give ‘em a break.
Manufacturing stuff is hard, alright? You have to get off the couch and stuff
get off the couch
You think Vance is worried about getting anyone other than himself off?
“It’s not gay if it’s a la-Z-boy.”
I’m, unfortunately, reminded me of this bit from the original Hitch-Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy radio series (which preceded even the books):
In today’s modern Galaxy there is, of course, very little still held to be unspeakable. Many words and expressions which only a matter of decades ago were considered so distastefully explicit that were they merely to be breathed in public, the perpetrator would be shunned, barred from polite society, and, in extreme cases, shot through the lungs, are now thought to be very healthy and proper, and their use in everyday speech is seen as evidence of a well-adjusted, relaxed, and totally unf [bleep!] ked-up personality. So, for instance, when in a recent national speech, the financial minister of the Royal World Estate of Qualvista actually dared to say that due to one thing and another, and the fact that no one had made any food for awhile and the king seemed to have died, and that most of the population had been on holiday now for over three years, the economy had now arrived at what he called, “One whole juju-flop situation,” everyone was so pleased he felt able to come out and say it, that they quite failed to notice that their five-thousand-year-old civilisation had just collapsed overnight. But though even words like “juju-flop,” “swut,” and “turlingdrome” are now perfectly acceptable in common usage, there is one word that is still beyond the pale. The concept it embodies is so revolting that the publication or broadcast of the word is utterly forbidden in all parts of the galaxy except one - where they don’t know what it means. That word is “Belgium” and it is only ever used by loose-tongued people like Zaphod Beeblebrox in situations of dire provocation. Such as…
Also…
The major problem—one of the major problems, for there are several—one of the many major problems with governing people is that of whom you get to do it; or rather of who manages to get people to let them do it to them. To summarize: it is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it. To summarize the summary: anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.
Which reminds me of Boris Johnson’s choice of vocabulary, somehow reducing the impact and perception of the ignorance, cruelty and incompetence of what is being said
He also said it live:
And people start to see why he consistently won positions in Minnesota!
Remember when he celebrated the groundbreaking foxconn boondoggle where land was taken from a small town and given to foxconn who created less jobs than the property taxes of the people who lived there prior would have created?
Honestly, the VPs in this election are better candidates than the presidential candidates. Even if I hate JD.
JD is scary cause he seems boring but he actually has super shady beliefs. And he’s a much easier puppet to control then Trump
And he’s LITERALLY, as in every sense of the word, a puppet. Peter Thiel bought him like a slave straight out of college, and inserted his hand right up his ass. It’s been there ever since.
I know what you mean but JD Vance might be one of the worst VP picks ever, that’s gotta bring down the average. Sarah Palin is the only comparable in my lifetime.
I genuinely don’t get how we live in the same timeline where Micheal Dukakis being so committed to his position against the death penalty (like during his debate, he said he wouldn’t advocate for it if someone raped and killed his wife) - was considered a weakness. JD has no commitment to anything and there are multiple musical remixes of him talking about how much he doesn’t like his running mate.
We executed the Rosenberg’s for far less than what has occurred in the last 20 years.
That was back when we were still a first-world nation.
Admiral Stockdale (Perot 92) should round out the podium, challenge for silver really.
JD is in bed with all the weirdest, and worst people on the planet: Trump, Silicon Valley, Musk, Thiel, Opus Dei, the Heritage Foundation. Vance is the Hillary Clinton of the Republican party.
To be fair, they aren’t really manufacturing most of it themselves either. A lot of it is imported from Russia.
Nature is healing.
And walz knows about manufacturing from all the manufacturing consent he and the dems do!
He has just as much expertise as trump does, which is basically nothing.

Great job bashing the dems while contributing nothing of substance to the conversation. Do you have any points concerning Trump’s or Harris’ manufacturing policies? Also, per your last point, please tell me how that commenters grievances are illegitimate. Is it because they’re trans?
Nobody can escape having to share the planet with right-wing dumbass fuckwits either, but here we are.
Damn, reality really does enrage you simpletons.
