Vance called Trump "cultural heroin" and "an opioid of the masses." In October 2016, he called Trump "reprehensible" in a post on Twitter, and called himself a "never-Trump guy." In a private message on Facebook he called Trump "America's Hitler".

Every Republican is a giant pussy, liar, and hypocrite in my opinion. I don't care about your schooling, books written, or anything else about or by Vance.

JD Vance is, according to JD Vance, Hitler's running mate.

Some conservatives may occasionaly seem like they have a spine, but the moment it's measured the wavefunction collapses and the spine disappears.

I think that would be Schrodinger's spine. Schrodinger's Republican would be trump for the 30 second it took to Google the news after hearing he got shot

Every Republican is an amoral self-serving hypocrite.

JD Vance’s call to fame is a self congratulatory piece of garbage “book” where he talks about how he was able to get out of poverty in the Appalachia’s, without ever mentioning the fact that it was right wing playbook shit that put them into poverty in the first place

The social and economic stratification of Appalachia comes largely as the result of classism. Many politicians and businessmen took advantage of the region's natural resource industries, such as mountaintop coal mining. Appalachian laborers were heavily exploited, which prevented the region from developing socially or gaining economic independence.

Coal operators and plantation bosses had discouraged education and civic action, allowing workers to become indebted to plantation stores, live in company housing, and generally make themselves vulnerable to exploitation. Additionally, some employers were known to encourage racial divisions in order to divide workers and pit them against each other, spurring competition and serving to lower wages. Workers also experienced heavy discrimination when seeking employment.

But some of those poor people had cell phones, and since he couldn’t afford one working as a teen at a grocery store, it was their fault not to just pull themselves up by their bootstraps
