J.D. Vance Booed by Entire Crowd During Dumpster Fire Speech

I don’t like how this article hyperbolizes the amount of booing. Compare the moments of booing to the very end with the mix of cheers/jeers where that sounds like the entire audience giving a reaction.

Yes it’s important that jorkin depeanus vance got booed but misrepresenting the level of heckling from the crowd isn’t journalism that respects its readers.

Thanks for taking that hit for the team. No way I was going to watch that but I was certainly skeptical of the claim.
I'm very sorry about this. But every time I read "jorkin depeanus" a picture of the Swedish chef pops into my head
jorkin depeanus vance

Upvoted just for this.

Well, also for excellent critique of the journalistic integrity.
- My favorite so far has been Joe Dirt Vance.
- wait... are we sure its not Jerkin Dick Vance? Oh shit thats what Jorkin means.... jfk I am an idiot
Yeah that's the New Republic for you.
Well said!

Walking out on to speak to a bunch of Boston firefighters with some weird ass jingoist country bullshit playing: immediate boo

You're JD "Couchfucker" Vance: immediate boo

Your boss a few days before took a shit on the national gravesite of war dead by politicizing the ultimate sacrifice they made: immediate boo.

What a weird group of assholes.

The appropriate intro music when speaking to ANY crowd in Boston is "Shippin' Up to Boston" by the Dropkick Murphys
- They should have just done that!
  
  Oooooh, sorry. You're way too weird, and they won't let you.
- No way in hell they’ll let a political party use their music. Especially not Vance’s party
- I'm a sailor peg!

Fuckin savage caption writing.
[clapping] would have been sufficient but they really wanted to let the hearing impaired feel the awkwardness of the moment.
He's beating Jeb! but not in any realistic fashion.

I'm a union worker and I'm dismayed at the amount of my union brothers who vote for pieces of shit like this. Who buy into their bullshit and actually think that conservatives will help them. Talk about voting against your own interests. If you're in a union, voting for conservatives is just stupid

Union worker myself. I am also baffled by the strong conservative undercurrent in my fellows' views. Don't know how they sustain it.
- Bigotry, selfishness, severe lack of intelligence and or basic reasoning skills. I can keep going.
- Stupidity combined "fuck you, I've got mine."
God, imagine if Biden had backed the railroad unions... Ahh, what might have been.
- The stupidity of that decision still amazes me to this day. "Railroad safety and efficacy during the shipping crisis? No! Let the monopolistic railroads regulate themselves, fuck their workers!"
- He did. After blocking the strikes his administration stepped in to negotiate for the unions and got them most of what they wanted.
I’m dismayed at the amount of my union brothers who vote for pieces of shit like this.

There was a period in the 90s when Democrats took the DLC Neoliberal turn, basically abandoned the labor movement, and made it very easy for Republicans to run as White Nationalist labor-ish sounding candidates.

But ten years ago, you'd get some Joe the Plumber asshole whining about how he can't afford to drive to work because gasoline taxes are too expensive.

Now you've got this Yaley prick telling Boston Firefighters they are the Sad Virgins rather than the Woke Chads, because they don't hate migrants enough.

Karl Rove is rolling in his pile of rent boys right now.
- Reading this was like eating an onion.

I think it's important to note that if you only read headlines here, you might think there was overwhelming disapproval from the firefighters union. If you get your news from right wing rags, you don't hear the boos, you only hear the cheers. I'd say it was pretty mixed listening to the video, in fact more cheers than jeers. Of course that's all meaningless as we have been digitally editing crowd reactions for years now and news agencies cherry pick what they want you to hear.

The point is, go out and vote. Don't you dare think this race is in the bag, it is a hell of a lot closer than articles like this would make you believe and the actual hatred for the right is WAY less than you might imagine.

JD couch fucker Vance doesn't know how to speak to normal people, what an absolute weirdo.

Jorgen Depeanus Vance.
How long have you thought that?

Ok, good.

JD Vance puts mustard on his pizza pass it on

One of Trenton NJ’s specialty pies is a mustard pizza. You won’t believe me but they’re actually good.
- Because when you think Pizza, you think Trenton.
- Sounds good still weird though lol
- Bottoms up in Richmond VA has one called the State Fair: Spicy brown mustard, sausage, caramelized onions and roasted red peppers.
  
  Years ago when I had it I remember it being surprisingly good.
- I'm half tempted to put stone ground on some... especially crust
- fuckin' jersey
Oh, you want FDNY on your fuckin’ ass, too?
I bet he eats his wings with ranch, too
- *miracle whip
- Bro what?
In his defense he thought it was lube
Dude! You want to start World War III??

“Semper Fi guys,” Vance said, seeming to signpost his background as a Marine to get the hecklers to stop.

"Isn't this a magic incantation that I can invoke anytime to clear me of ill will?"

Bitch you spent 6 months in as a reporter; my dad killed people in a war. You are not the same kinds of Marines.
Semper Fi

Always loyal

J.D. Vance might be on a generational run for the worst VP pick of all time.

Remember when being unable to spell “potato” was enough to derail a political career?
- Howard Dean says "yeeeaaaahhhhh!"
We're only 16 years off Palin, that's impressive.
- I mean, generations are only ~15ish years apart - so it tracks..

He was speaking to a union in Boston. What did he expect?

The man has sex with furniture, thinking will never be his strong suit.
- Well he is basically in a union with his couch, just with less working and more... Working
- Hello, Dale! I see that you are a man of culture as well.

Lay off Vance, everyone! The risk of actually showing how stupid and robotic this guy is is that he might get replaced on the VP candidate slot. He's a terrible choice that's driving people away, but if he gets replaced literally a bowl of soup would be a better choice.

Nah I think a replacement does worse. Not because the replacement would be worse, but it shows insane weakness/ stupidity/ inability to have a coherent strategy on the part of a Trump campaign. It shows that these guys don't know what it takes to win an election; and giving your vote to a team that doesn't know how to win an election is a wasted vote. Its the same as why Biden was struggling; losing charges compound interest because viability is a key component of whether or not people vote for you. If you aren't perceived as viable because of your polling, it bites double.
- This is my feeling as well. For Trump to replace Vance means Trump admitting he made a bad call. He makes horrible calls constantly, but I don't see him admitting to a single one.
...so you're suggesting some kind of "replacement theory".... Go on....those dumb dumbs would hate if the meaning of that phrase got flipped. lol
But what if we get the Mooch? How can you deny us the possibility of the Mooch?
- I had not considered the Mooch. That's a great point.
  
  How long as Vance been on the ticket in Mooches?
Yes, but RFK may or may not be. And at this point trump might put the wrong RFK on his ticket and get the brain worm guy instead of the dead politician.
Hasn’t the filing deadline in most states already passed?
- You get into the role of electors, who are supposed to submit the votes for who best represents the state's choice or something like that. This was written back when it would take weeks to get to DC, so who knows what would be there.
The more I think about it, the more I expect RFK will replace him.
What I don't get as an outsider - this guy (like other equally weird persons as for example Mrs. Palin) is in a rather high political position.

How in the world are these people elected? Is it only about being in the preferred party or were their opponents even more incompetent?
- Combination of Peter Thiel’s money and Trumps endorsement.

Vance’s team is already attempting to spin his dismal reception, lauding his bravery for stepping into hostile territory.

They can spin it all they want but he wasn't in a gd firefight ffs.

And they're firefighters. They lean conservative. Not as much as cops, but they still lean conservative. Yeah, it was a union, but so is the police union.
- Proof that fire fighters lean conservative nationally? Because in my experience that's very much not true.

I feel like I could do a better job than this guy and I am not a public speaker.

It really is kind of inspirational, It makes me feel better about how normal I am in comparison
Step up to the mic, wave and say hello, get off the stage. There, better speech.

Do you mean JD Vance as in, "JD Vance, the fake hillbilly yokel?"

Stolen Squalor.
- Hahaha
- To the moon with this coment, LOL.
- Thank you.
- There really needs to be a chefs kiss emoji
  
  Let’s go Apple!
  
  (Edit: yes, I know Lemmy hates Apple, but they’ve been the only one of the five companies - the others are Samsung, Google, Meta, and Microsoft - on the UNICODE board overseeing emojis that have actually bothered to make any new emoji for the past 15 years.)
Some folk’ll never fuck a couch,

But then again some folk’ll.

Like JD the fake hillbilly yokel

Worst place to try and start a dumpster fire.

Couch fucker.

Our VP choices are friendly coach or couch fucker
- I enjoy friendly coach, he's adorable.

Public speaking is hard, even for people who aren't massively awkward lickspittle cretins.

lickspittle

I'm so glad this term is coming back into modern usage. It showed up twice in one episode of HOTD (and a few others) and I was happy to hear it.

Also, how tf has JDV been a politician for this long without the ability to be likeable and/or know his audience for a public speaking event? Holy shit.
- If it matters, I didn't hear it recently at all, and it's not a word I use often - it's just that when I went deep into my lexicon for the best word for him, that's what I came up with. Maybe the lickspittles are the ones bringing it back.
How dare you make excuses for this asshole!

Oof. Homeboy has the presence of a used blood boy.

From urban dictionary:

blood boy

A young man who is a healthy specimen (no drinking, smoking, drugs, possibly vegan) and is hired by an tech billionaire to be a source of youthful, healthy blood for him, via regular transfusions.

I had to look it up, but it's wonderfully accurate. Thank you for teaching me a new term.
- Is this a real thing? I thought it was just a joke from the show Silicon Valley.

It might be time to swap JD for Bobby Brainworm.

You mean ole Whaley McChainsaw?
- You can't use that, it's not even close to the weirdest thing he has done.

What a chucklehead.

Well yeah he’s a fuckin weirdo

Someone pointed it out on a slightly different issue the other day, but we already know how Trump treats workers, because he was president for 4 years. Voters haven't forgotten that.

I mean, some of us haven't, but most voters have the memory span of a goldfish.

That opening music was really cringy

https://x.com/atrupar/status/1829194849293095241

Wicked fucking righteous.

The cover photo they used makes it look like he haasaged 10 years in the last few weeks. Stumbling from embarassing screw up to screw up on the world stage when most people are already against you will really wreck your youthful demeanor.

Good. He deserves this shit.

bro the dem crowd boos in a way that it sounds like the candidates are being booed, i think we should probably just stick with the weird allegations to be honest.
