Vance says Biden is trying to kill MAGA voters: “If you wanted to kill a bunch of MAGA voters in the middle of the heartland, how better to target them and their kids with this fentanyl .. It does look intentional. It’s like Biden wants to punish people who didn’t vote for him.”

This fucker is dangerous.

[blm]

1. Who was killing all those fentanyl users before 2021?

[qazplm135]

2. Hillary

duh!

[canetoad]

3. Obama

Of course.

[AZLD4Candidate]

25. (fill in the blank Democrat that invokes anger in MAGAts)

[Make7]

4. Don't they teach ethics at Yale law school? This guy can't open his mouth without lying. ( n/t )

[Diamond_Dog]

5. Really.

Must be why TFG likes him so much. He’s a prolific liar.

[True Blue American]

19. Who tried to kill

JD’s drug addict Mother? He is beginning to sound as crazy as she was.

[dalton99a]

15. There is a shitload of dangerous lying scumbags that went to elite schools

Ron DeSantis: Yale, Harvard Law

etc, etc.

Not to mention the Bushes, and Trump and his spawn

36. Thank you for this list.

Brett Kavanaugh is another. These people have shown themselves to be completely unethical. I wonder how many of them got "help" from wealthy parents to purchase grades and test scores. In other words, they might not have done any work and certainly didn't learn anything.

[Septua]

6. Where did that come from?

Where did "democrats are pedophiles" come from? Where did "the election was stolen" come from?

I just heard a new phrase for Republican strategy..."Weapons of Mass Distraction". They got no agenda, no ideas for an agenda, no ideas for the problems faced by the country and the world. They just want to be in control.

[ThoughtCriminal]

8. Projection

Normally to find projection this big one must go to an IMAX theatre.

[yardwork]

37. I've seen articles about how just a few trolls or "influencers" start these rumors.

I think it's pretty obvious that this propaganda is part of a well-funded campaign that uses social media to amplify lies. It's cleverly designed to trigger people's fears and resentments.

[DURHAM D]

7. So is he admitting that drug addicts are Republicans? nt

[keithbvadu2]

13. Bingo!

Know your target market.

[yardwork]

38. Part of the strategy is to exploit peoples' sense of victimization.

I didn't read his book, but even the title Hillbilly Elegy implies a feeling of victimization and abandonment. Vance tapped into that resentment. He's still using it to fuel his campaign.

It's like half the country has Borderline Personality Disorder. The rest of us are trying to reason with them but it's like trying to reason with two year olds having a collective meltdown.

[doc03]

9. How can I help nt

[Mad_Machine76]

10. Which totally explains

Why border patrols under Biden are successfully stopping drugs coming over the border. Totally makes sense

[Initech]

11. Nah, MAGA voters are killing themselves by not taking the vaccine.

They don't need any outside intervention.

[llmart]

12. This guy is just trying to out-insane the likes of mtg and hawley.

They know that if they can get the base all riled up it'll get headlines.

Oh, and a little tip for this little punk. Growing a beard isn't going to make you look more "manly". Before the beard, he looked like a baby faced punk and he thinks the MAGAts will like him more if he looks more "backwoodsy".

[Solly Mack]

14. You betcha. Biden even turned your mother into an addict.

I was there! I saw it!

Biden kept telling her, "You don't want none of that".

And your momma kept saying, "I think I do".

Oh, wait. Wrong movie.

[dalton99a]

16. +1. Many people are saying JD fucked his mother

[calimary]

29. Nancy Reagan once admonished Don Regan that "people are talking!"

Nancy didn't like Reagan's Treasury Secretary and thought he was making enough bad moves that he was making her husband look bad. She scolded him and added "people are talking!" Don Regan was fated not to be Treasury Secretary for much longer, after that. The message got sent - you DO NOT cross Nancy Reagan. She could have your head on a plate before lunchtime.

DAYUM, but that stuck with me. I'll NEVER forget that "people are talking!" admonishment.

I suspect she might have been at least one of those "people".

[GoCubsGo]

17. More Republican projection.

His fucking party is the one hindering any attempts to deal with the situation, just as they are with guns, COVID, and anything else that might help the American people.

[onecaliberal]

18. These people need be dragged into court and made to cough up proof or pay a very high price.

[Boomerproud]

20. That's the only way to stop this dangerous situation.

[HardPort]

21. This scourge rips thru red areas where the people they elect care nothing of their woes.

These rubes could be choosing to elect leaders who want to give them health care and resources to fight the scourge of these drugs. Instead, they choose to get worked up over all the bullshit "issues" pitched to them by mentally deranged demagogues. I'm sorry your kids are dying, but folks, this shit is on you.

[ancianita]

22. Piling yet another big lie on the last Big Lie. Piling lies on lies is to confound voters' trust.

We should not take their bait and have to prove a damned thing. We should not spend our time reacting to them such that we get accused that "we" have a "messaging problem." Their shit net is the messaging problem.

JD Vance is not a propagandist. He's a liar. A destroyer of voter trust in government. He would do the very same thing to Democrats if he were president, which is why he projects his menacing mind upon our party leader.

It's not just that Vance is dangerous as a person. His protection racket line is how those hell bent on ending democracy do it with or without trump. New righter managers of fact-free fear and big lies don't need a leader. Just the protection racket game. Vance does what the eliminationist Putin does when he accuses of Ukraine of being Nazi as a pretext for "protecting" it. It's what leaders intent on war and genocide do.

When they're caught in their racket, they flip to patriot victims.


The real solution is us and our candidates sticking to our messaging of what we've accomplished. Only people who've accomplished nothing for locals rely on lies about us.

[Grins]

23. "...how better to target them...with this fentanyl"?

And the stupid MAGA’s are so willing to take it!

Hey, JD. Maybe you can tell us how Biden manages to convince them to take fentanyl.

An ex-Marine and Yale Law. They should both disown him.

[ancianita]

24. "Maybe you can tell us how Biden manages to convince them to take fentanyl." Good one.

Throw in a mocking tone and he's got to move on to some other lie.

[IronLionZion]

26. First I steal their jobs, then Biden punishes them with fentanyl

teachers groom them into Disney characters, or something.

It sounds like MAGA voters must be high to believe this nonsense. Their hero Rush Limbaugh was high as a kite while bloviating his nonsense. Trump likely is high on pills.

MAGA folks seem to be getting punished harder with COVID too.

[AZLD4Candidate]

27. Does this whatever-it-is have any evidence of this?

Inquiring minds would like to know.

[KS Toronado]

28. If Hillary could sneak away to a Pizza basement to play pedophile

without anyone ever seeing her do her dastardly deeds, I'm sure Biden could sneak out of the
White House in his old Corvette and sell fentanyl on the streets.

[Nevilledog]

30. In a pizza place with no basement.

[The Unmitigated Gall]

31. Asshole. Biden wouldn't need to.

They’ve been killing themselves with covid.

[struggle4progress]

32. Who dies? Lots of Amerindian women and Afro-American men

The largest numbers of deaths occur in California

34. Comment from Akron area

We are absolutely bombarded by ads right now. Just saw one where cryingbaldeaglesforfreedom.ru says Vance is a Hollywood liberal.

[Roisin Ni Fiachra]

35. Heck, I'd probably do fentanyl if I were a Republican.

Seems like an easy way to escape the hellish confusion and profound misery of the hopelessness caused by the prevalence of self-deception, and lack of self awareness, that leads to the dishonesty, insatiable greed, and xenophobia that almost universally exists within the individual and collective Republican consciousness.

What a hell on earth it must be, to be so lacking in empathy, so cruel, and so far out of touch with reality.

Vance is just repeating the excuse that conservatives throughout the history of humankind have used, when blaming someone or something else to justify their anti-social, criminal, self destructive, and often sociopathic, behaviors....

"The devil made me do it".

In reality, it's simple supply and demand - fentanyl dealers sell their poison in places where the demand is highest, and the demand is highest among angry, ignorant, semi-literate, Fox news watching, vaccine denying, Trump worshiping MAGAts in Red areas, who need an authoritarian daddy to tell them what to do.

Vance can blame fentanyl deaths on innocent people such as President Biden until the cows come home. It's all part of the their QAnon fantasy. The Republican party is a reality denying cult.

[yardwork]

39. Great rant!

[csziggy]

40. Well, on the good side, if he can convince fentanyl users it's a Democratic plot

Maybe some of them would get off the drugs they have been abusing. On the bad side, they'd quit killing themselves and keeping themselves in a stupor and be more likely to vote.
