He’s a soulless husk who just says what he thinks will make him powerful.

I fully believe he would standby and watch his family deported if it meant he could be president

I agree. But I do believe be would draw the line at deporting his couch

Don’t let him go to Sweden. IKEA may never recover.

We will only be told they've been deported. They will instead be disappeared. Peter thiel is a terrifying man

He truly is, if ever there was a reptile walking amongst us its him. Im just waiting for him to be caught on camera licking his own eyeball after one of his sweaty interviews

Does Peter Thiel still have his blood boy?

Slim ball would change his name and reinvent himself as the sole survivor of a family tradegy.

Yep. He made sense when he said shit a few years ago, but that was when he thought Trump would lose. As soon as he realized he could get on the ticket, he completely flipped and was essentially suckling at Trumps saggy balls.

Some saggy, hairy t*** were involved, I believe. The bitty.

Do you think when his wife sends him to sleep on the couch he is sad or happy?

She is married to JD Vance. She is a loser too.

don’t forget traitor to both her race and gender! btw she clerked under roberts, who was key in reversing roe - so she is a deplorable ghoul who has done a disservice to all american women!

Probably happy. He hid his family away the entire election, going so far as to pose with another man's super white, obviously conservative family. But also because he fucks couches.

Do you think that for JD Vance, an afternoon nap on the couch is his idea of an “afternoon delight” ?

And that’s about the nicest thing you can say about JD Vance or James Donald Bowman, or James David Hamel, or whatever the f*** his name is.

I think the nicest thing you can say is that he’s not Ted Cruz

He was always that.

He’s the equivalent of Peter’s assistant on Family Guy whose job it was to agree to everything he said, I just wish it ended the same way with the head explosion

Hate to tell you all… but whatever John Oliver has done in the past, has generally come true. Project 2025, Elon Musk and RFK jr. I fear this will be true too.. come 2028, JDV will be Republican nominee and will win the presidency. Another extended 4-years of Republican presidency.

A modern Cassandra, then.

Think how awful you have to be if john Oliver can do a whole show about you.

Sounds like someone who doesn’t have a real job.

He has no shame because he is in it for the end goal, supreme leader. It won’t matter what anyone thinks of him.

I feel like you could say the same for Hegseth. Or Trump. Or basically anyone in the administration. Guess that’s technically why it’s an archetype.

That comparison is way too accurate. It feels less like a real person and more like someone whose only role is to agree, which makes the whole thing kind of unbearable after a point.

He has the personality of soggy white bread

He does what he's told.

J.D. Vance is what happens when a soft person is protected too much.

He’s mostly guyliner
