    It appears no one here has lost a loved one. When you do, the people who show up for you are deeply appreciated. A 3 second hug is hardly an issue when someone has been there to help you reclaim and return your husband’s body.

      Yeah I gave her the benefit of the doubt initially too but watch her intro of Vance prior to this. Didn’t strike me as a person mourning. Especially for her to directly bring up similarities between him and Vance.

        Not explicitly, no, but I wouldn’t consider holding the head of someone I cared about and who had just helped me through a desperately traumatizing event odd. The world needs a little more compassion and empathy and less criticism.

          Lol, the person who had no compassion and empathy for anyone deserves neither. That includes their spouse who mirrors the same ideas and grifts for a living. Fuck your concern trolling.

    They are disappearing people illegally. Who gives a single flying fuck about the interpersonal relationships of these two ghouls? The only relationship they should have is with the other inmates in federal prison.

      I don’t really give a shit about the East Wing either, but whatever catches people’s attention and turns public attention against these losers is useful.

    Wow! That is moving fast. She is luring him in with her black leather pants. She loves power. He loves upholstery. He can’t resist. GOP perversion/hypocrisy at its finest.

      I’d have thought that Vance liked a bit more “cushion for the pushin’” than that. Guess he’ll take what he can get. Which in this case is Charlie Kirk’s professional widow.

    I dunno, seems like a stretch to me. This particular drama probably says more about our touch-averse culture, or starvation for constant political drama.

    So, he has to dump the brown wife, win full custody of his Christian kids, and marry the white widow all by early 2027?

    I’m sure they can do that. We all know evangelicals don’t give a fuck about any of this.

      Those kids are not pure enough for his constituents. He will deliberately lose custody and then whine ahout how the system is biased against fathers.

      Public opinion is irrelevant. There’s not gonna be legitimate elections again, and the oligarchs control the media the 99% consume.

      Only 50% of Americans blame R’s for the shutdown ffs. Wake up! The US is collapsing under the weight of its own corruption.

        Vance will deport his wife and kids as an example to be led by.

        He’ll talk about how it’s a sacrifice that needs to be made and how it’s actually beneficial for them. He’s actually the victim of the success of making America great again. But it’s a sacrifice he is willing to make.

    “No one will ever replace my husband,” she told the crowd. “But I do see some similarities of my husband in JD— in Vice President JD Vance. I do. And that’s why I am so blessed to be able to introduce him tonight.”

    Her husband’s been dead five minutes and he’s married. Gross.

      The hug, I could maybe understand, but that comment is either weird or performative. I’m leaning towards the latter, given her husband’s background as a performative mouthpiece for the right. She seems like she’s basically giving her and her dead husband’s endorsement to this administration. They can’t help themselves from jerking each other off in front of everyone. “It’s ok that we act like this because we’re doing it together.” and “the left is trying to break us apart, if we don’t stick together while we act terrible then we’ll all be alone again.”

      He’s dead, she can move on whenever she wants…

      He, on the other hand, is still married and needs to at least have the balls to divorce his wife before he moves on her.

      She’s garbage but, in this situation, he’s entirely responsible for his actions.
