I don’t like how this article hyperbolizes the amount of booing. Compare the moments of booing to the very end with the mix of cheers/jeers where that sounds like the entire audience giving a reaction.
Yes it’s important that jorkin depeanus vance got booed but misrepresenting the level of heckling from the crowd isn’t journalism that respects its readers.
Thanks for taking that hit for the team. No way I was going to watch that but I was certainly skeptical of the claim.
I’m very sorry about this. But every time I read “jorkin depeanus” a picture of the Swedish chef pops into my head
jorkin depeanus vance
Upvoted just for this.
Well, also for excellent critique of the journalistic integrity.
My favorite so far has been Joe Dirt Vance.
Stolen squalor.
Please use his real name: Jeffrey Dahmer Vance.
wait… are we sure its not Jerkin Dick Vance? Oh shit thats what Jorkin means… jfk I am an idiot
It took me a hot minute… That’s when I decided it needed an updoot.
Yeah that’s the New Republic for you.
Walking out on to speak to a bunch of Boston firefighters with some weird ass jingoist country bullshit playing: immediate boo
You’re JD “Couchfucker” Vance: immediate boo
Your boss a few days before took a shit on the national gravesite of war dead by politicizing the ultimate sacrifice they made: immediate boo.
What a weird group of assholes.
The appropriate intro music when speaking to ANY crowd in Boston is “Shippin’ Up to Boston” by the Dropkick Murphys
They should have just done that!
Oooooh, sorry. You’re way too weird, and they won’t let you.
I’m a sailor peg!
I always thought he said sailor peg.
You are correct, I’ve fixed it.
Either way doesn’t make any sense 😂
Yeah it doesn’t really does it. To be fair though he did lose his leg so that probably makes it a bit tougher to stay coherent.
Oh yeah top sail and whatnot. This pirate is in need of some rum.
No way in hell they’ll let a political party use their music. Especially not Vance’s party
It’s not like that’s stopped them from using licensed music before…
No but can trump afford another lawsuit?
Fuckin savage caption writing.
[clapping] would have been sufficient but they really wanted to let the hearing impaired feel the awkwardness of the moment.He’s beating Jeb! but not in any realistic fashion.
JD couch fucker Vance doesn’t know how to speak to normal people, what an absolute weirdo.
Jorgen Depeanus Vance.
How long have you thought that?
Ok, good.
JD Vance puts mustard on his pizza pass it on
One of Trenton NJ’s specialty pies is a mustard pizza. You won’t believe me but they’re actually good.
Because when you think Pizza, you think Trenton.
Have you ever been to NJ? Literally the entire state is lousy with incredible local pizza joints. If you live in the state and order from a pizza chain, there is something wrong with you mentally.
And yeah, there is a type of tomato pie that is specific to Trenton, and it is known for it around the rest of the state (and PA, and perhaps NY). Google “Trenton Tomato Pie.”
Trenton is a shit city (NJ should do better for their capital city), but people often forget that it has an insanely rich history that goes back to the Revolutionary War. It’s more recent history (early 1900s) includes a ton of Italian immigrants.
That said, I love mustard and I love pizza, but they don’t go together. That’s a travesty.
The Golden Gate Bridge is held up by Trenton steel. The city definitely isn’t what it used to be but the food is still great
Yeah it’s a bummer. I don’t know if it’s a corruption problem, or what, but it’s unfortunate that NJ can’t/hasn’t/won’t fix the city up. It’s still their state capital.
Sounds good still weird though lol
It doesn’t sound good at all but I would absolutely try it. It just sounds too interesting.
fuckin’ jersey
I’m half tempted to put stone ground on some… especially crust
I’ve tried it on pepperoni pizza as that was the only way it made any sense whatsoever in my brain.
It wasn’t gross or anything, it tasted exactly how I expected. Not for me.
Oh, you want FDNY on your fuckin’ ass, too?
In his defense he thought it was lube
I bet he eats his wings with ranch, too
*miracle whip
Bro what?
Dude! You want to start World War III??
“Semper Fi guys,” Vance said, seeming to signpost his background as a Marine to get the hecklers to stop.
“Isn’t this a magic incantation that I can invoke anytime to clear me of ill will?”
Semper Fi
Always loyal
J.D. Vance might be on a generational run for the worst VP pick of all time.
Remember when being unable to spell “potato” was enough to derail a political career?
Howard Dean says “yeeeaaaahhhhh!”
At least Gary Hart got some Monkey Business to torpedo his career.
This was the weirdest thing. That dude had energy, and it tanked his run. One time he did a weird thing and it ruined his chances, now we’re counting the weird things people do daily and it has no effect.
We’re only 16 years off Palin, that’s impressive.
I mean, generations are only ~15ish years apart - so it tracks…
He was speaking to a union in Boston. What did he expect?
The man has sex with furniture, thinking will never be his strong suit.
Well he is basically in a union with his couch, just with less working and more… Working
Hello, Dale! I see that you are a man of culture as well.
Lay off Vance, everyone! The risk of actually showing how stupid and robotic this guy is is that he might get replaced on the VP candidate slot. He’s a terrible choice that’s driving people away, but if he gets replaced literally a bowl of soup would be a better choice.
Nah I think a replacement does worse. Not because the replacement would be worse, but it shows insane weakness/ stupidity/ inability to have a coherent strategy on the part of a Trump campaign. It shows that these guys don’t know what it takes to win an election; and giving your vote to a team that doesn’t know how to win an election is a wasted vote. Its the same as why Biden was struggling; losing charges compound interest because viability is a key component of whether or not people vote for you. If you aren’t perceived as viable because of your polling, it bites double.
This is my feeling as well. For Trump to replace Vance means Trump admitting he made a bad call. He makes horrible calls constantly, but I don’t see him admitting to a single one.
He wouldn’t admit it. He would find something to blame on Vance (probably wouldn’t be a strain) and then “You’re Fired!” and the red hats would chuckle and never miss a beat.
I wonder if Vance then makes the talk show circuit and turns anti-Trump while hyping his new tell-all book
That would be funny as hell, and well frankly probably exactly what would happen.
It also kinda nukes all their bitching about replacing Biden.
Biden was never officially nominated. Vance was. It’s a much bigger deal that shows weakness in the party.
Bruh, he fired like 129% of his cabinet and other higher-ups last time.
…so you’re suggesting some kind of “replacement theory”… Go on…those dumb dumbs would hate if the meaning of that phrase got flipped. lol
Yes, but RFK may or may not be. And at this point trump might put the wrong RFK on his ticket and get the brain worm guy instead of the dead politician.
Hasn’t the filing deadline in most states already passed?
You get into the role of electors, who are supposed to submit the votes for who best represents the state’s choice or something like that. This was written back when it would take weeks to get to DC, so who knows what would be there.
The more I think about it, the more I expect RFK will replace him.
Vance’s team is already attempting to spin his dismal reception, lauding his bravery for stepping into hostile territory.
They can spin it all they want but he wasn’t in a gd firefight ffs.
And they’re firefighters. They lean conservative. Not as much as cops, but they still lean conservative. Yeah, it was a union, but so is the police union.
Proof that fire fighters lean conservative nationally? Because in my experience that’s very much not true.

Stolen Squalor.
Hahaha
To the moon with this coment, LOL.
Sadly I didn’t think of it, but I’m determined to spread it around because it’s so frigging brilliant.
Thank you.
There really needs to be a chefs kiss emoji
Let’s go Apple!
(Edit: yes, I know Lemmy hates Apple, but they’ve been the only one of the five companies - the others are Samsung, Google, Meta, and Microsoft - on the UNICODE board overseeing emojis that have actually bothered to make any new emoji for the past 15 years.)
stop, I need to convince myself that emoji are still new.
Lmao, shit no. They’re not even remotely American, either. They were a big deal in Japan in, like, the 90s while we primitives were still using emoticons like simpletons ;)
And even they, with their kanji, could write superior emoticons thusly ツ
I’m no weeb, but give some credit to Apple for dragging us turds into the 21st century and keeping our texts fresh 😉👍
And Apple gave us the rainbow flag emoji, my personal fav 🏳️🌈 to celebrate marriage quality in the United States.
#🤌
Some folk’ll never fuck a couch,
But then again some folk’ll.
Like JD the fake hillbilly yokel
I feel like I could do a better job than this guy and I am not a public speaker.
It really is kind of inspirational, It makes me feel better about how normal I am in comparison
Step up to the mic, wave and say hello, get off the stage. There, better speech.
Worst place to try and start a dumpster fire.
Couch fucker.
Our VP choices are friendly coach or couch fucker
I enjoy friendly coach, he’s adorable.
