JD Vance is on the ticket because he wants the government to kill trans people. Vance has been more vocal in his transphobia than just about any other leading VP candidate. That's a deliberate choice by Team Trump.

I’ve made a lot of jokes about the J.D. Vance sparkling water story from Hillbilly Elegy, to the extent that it probably sounds made up, but you owe it to yourself to read the real thing if you haven’t

JD Vance is too chicken shit to go driving through a holler in Breathitt County, he can't last a second outside whatever little safe fashy bubble he's manufactured.

imagine picking a guy who is scared of NYC as your running mate lollllll

The rules of the game: Nothing Republicans say about Democrats, no matter how deranged — such as Mark Robinson saying that “some people need killing” — will be considered out of bounds, yet standard political rhetoric from Democrats will be treated as incitement to violence.

Dr. Disrespect was also calling trans people groomers while solicitng a trans sex worker online, promising her a media partnership in lieu of money for videos, and then blocking her once he was satisfied x.com/leenalovepro...

It's horrible enough that Dr Disrespect calls trans people groomers while being an actual groomers himself but it adds insult to injury that he denies the need for gender affirming care while wearing a wig and a fake mustache all the time
