In 2016 and 2017, Vance, then best-known for penning the best-selling book “Hillbilly Elegyâ€* *said Trump was “cultural heroin†and “just another opioid†for Middle America. He told CNN ahead of the 2016 election that he was “definitely not†voting for Trump and he also contemplated voting for Hillary Clinton (he ultimately said he planned to vote for independent candidate Evan McMullin.)
“Fellow Christians, everyone is watching us when we apologize for this man. Lord help us,†he tweeted after the “Access Hollywood†tape was published in 2016.
Vance also liked tweets that said Trump committed “serial sexual assault,†called him “one of USA’s most hated, villainous, douchey celebs,†and harshly criticized Trump’s response to the deadly 2017 White nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.
“There is no moral equivalence between the anti-racist protestors in Charlottesville and the killer (and his ilk),†Vance wrote in a deleted-tweet.
Making a fantastic impression in one of his first campaign events (in the friendly confines of his own hometown high school) he defined awkward with this gem:
“It is the weirdest thing to me: Democrats say that it is racist to believe—well, they say it’s racist to do anything… I had a diet Mountain Dew yesterday, and one today. I’m sure they’re probably gonna call that racist too.â€
Insert crickets chirping…
“It’s good."
More crickets, with perhaps a courtesy laugh or two…

“I certainly would like abortion to be illegal nationally,†Vance said in January 2022 on a podcast when running for Senate.
“This is one of the great tricks that I think the sexual revolution pulled on the American populace, which is the idea that like, ‘well, OK, these marriages were fundamentally, you know, they were maybe even violent, but certainly they were unhappy. And so getting rid of them and making it easier for people to shift spouses like they change their underwear, that’s going to make people happier in the long term,’†Vance said. “And maybe it worked out for the moms and dads, though I’m skeptical. But it really didn’t work out for the kids of those marriages,†Vance continued. “And that’s what I think all of us should be honest about, is we’ve run this experiment in real time. And what we have is a lot of very, very real family dysfunction that’s making our kids unhappy.â€
“The Democrats are talking about giving the vote to 16-year-olds,†Vance noted. “Let’s do this instead. Let’s give votes to all children in this country, but let’s give control over those votes to the parents of the children.†He continued, asking, “Doesn’t this mean that nonparents don’t have as much of a voice as parents? Doesn’t this mean that parents get a bigger say in how democracy functions?â€

Being accused of being a racist has become so bad that even racists don’t want to be labeled as such.

It’s even worse actually watching it. You know Trump is having major doubts, and PredictIt has the gap to Harris narrowing further today.

I’m not sure being a goat fucker was ever socially acceptable, but being racist certainly was and still is in certain circles, just don’t label them racists!

There is likely a strong correlation of racist behavior and goat fucking.
