It has been so great to see how horrible Vance is as a VP pick. I would hazard a guess that nobody else would say yes to Trump after he was willing to sacrifice Pence.

The problem, according to the commenters, is that the words "woman" and "dolphin" were highlighted in the image, suggesting that whoever took the screenshot apparently searched for those exact terms.

Seems like a nothing burger blown out of proportion by the press. Stop upvoting garbage pls

But it is a funny nothing burger that shows how out of touch Vance is

More like, it shows that media will leech into anything.

With you here. The title made it sound like a lot more than it actually was.

I'd disagree

It really just demonstrates how cringe republicans are.. And it's important to highlight just how cringe these people are.

I have lots of weird friends (and I'm probably weird myself). I actually prefer to hang with weird people.

But it's important to highlight just how contradictory the anti-porn conservative party acts. It's not weird, its just cringe. And its even worse because they're trying to define what normal is and demanding people follow it
