On the Couch with Jesse Watters

 

Look, I think it's great that Fox News wants to address this throbbingly important issue of the day, and who better than Watters to do it, but let's not get it twisted. Politics isn't beanbag, and Democrats are not like Republicans. See, Republicans have little "jokes" they want to make about Kamala Harris like she "slept her way to the top" (sexist) or that she's a "DEI hire" (sexist and racist) or that because her parents were both born elsewhere, she isn't really, really a US citizen (Birtherism 2).  Do they believe those things? Maybe, maybe not, but they are mean and dumb and they find it funny to repeat those things in all seriousness even if it's bullshit.

As for Vance and the couch thing, sure, it's bullshit and there are far more substantive things to criticize about him, like being the ideas guy for a future dystopia. But it's also fun to point out that he seems like the kind of funky little creep who waits until someone gets off the couch to go to the bathroom, has his way with the warm spot, and then lets them sit back down and wonder why the spot is still warm. 

Do I really, really believe he's that kind of guy? I dunno. I do think he backs Project 2025 and isn't lying when he says he would do for Trump what Pence wouldn't.  So, let's put it this way--we aren't sharing the sofa.  He can have the fringe.

I will refer to "Vance" by the name he has chosen despite the fact he will not grant other Americans that right, but I do believe he stuck his Weiner in a couch based on his time in the USMC (2003-2007) the year the Chapelle show "F*** Your Couch" skit came out (2004) and the lack of women in the Corps.

Quite probable--one is never so lonely as when one is surrounded, and necessity is the mother of invention. I think it's fascinating though that conservatives might be more upset about discussion of his being a deep-divan diver (harmless, hilarious) than discussing his actual views on women (actively harmful).
