VP Vance Smears Talarico With Homophobic Lies

We had Trump fantasizing about John Husted's ass and now we get this from JD Vance.

Vance stopped in Texas to stump for Ken Paxton and Republicans for the midterms.

The rally was parked in front of his Boeing C-32.

"Now, before we get started, I love you too, sir, in a totally platonic way, to be clear," Vance said. "I'm the vice president, not James Talarico."

Racism and homophobia define the Republican Party.

Vance sounds like a teenager spewing gay insults in a schoolyard.

Open thread.

JD Vance: "I love you too sir. In a totally platonic way, to be clear. I'm the vice president, not James Talarico."
