Dems’ “weird” attacks are getting under Trump’s skin. “Of course he’s upset,” a source told Rolling Stone
As Democrats continue their rhetorical strategy of trash-talking Donald Trump, his running mate J.D. Vance, and other “weird” and “creepy” conservative policymakers attempting to thrust the country into the dark ages, the former president has become increasingly furious at the messaging overtaking media outlets and internet memes.
During a Thursday interview with conservative radio host Clay Travis, Trump attempted to reverse the criticism and said that Democrats were “the weird ones.” He insisted, “Nobody’s ever called me weird. I’m a lot of things, but weird I’m not. And I’m upfront. And he’s not either, I will tell you. J.D. is not at all. They are.”
“We’re not weird people,” Trump added. “We’re we’re actually just the opposite.
How weird that they’re so weird about being called “weird”.
But seriously, it seems like Republicans need to think they’re in the majority. “Silent majority” and all that BS. Calling them “weird” makes them confront how much of an outlier they are. Maybe that’s part of the source of their deep insecurity about being called “weird.” Maybe also just the desire to not feel like the unpopular kids in highschool.
Boomers simply can’t handle criticism, especially when it comes from people they openly disdain like minorities, LGBTQ or young people. They can’t handle it. But yeah, being called weird seems to tap into some deep insecurity they have. Nooo, I’m the norm! I’m supposed to be the default experience. You can’t call us weird!
I think this particular jab hits home for Trump a lot harder than anyone else due to the narcissism. It may also apply to conservatives in general but I don’t think it’s necessarily a widely applicable generalization.
Not weird at all. Totally normal human.
He looks like he just witnessed a nuclear weapon go off at close range. Fucking weirdo.
Definitely Looney Toons vibes.
And here I always considered him having just taken his face out of the loot bag the dye-pak just went off in.
So jealous with his weird confused boner for Kamala being bi-racial, he tried to give it a go himself with makeup.
Epic fail, what a creepy freak
The permanent tint from having spaghetti in tupperware just once.
Weird area-man stares at one too many eclipses.
Regular John Q Everyman right there /s
The fact that calling them weird is making them so mad is the funniest shit I’ve seen all week. And they call everyone else snowflakes lmao
I haven’t felt this way since metal gear solid, where to beat psycho mantis, you simply had to remove your controller from the player one port and put it into player two for the fight. In both cases, the solution is so absurd and simple, it’s crazy it actually works.
You like playing fighting games, don’t you?
SSSOOOOO YOU THINK THE GOP CANDIDATES ARE “WEIRRRRD” DO YOU?!
I always got
“So, you like Suikoden?”
“You like Castlevania, don’t you?”
Don’t forget that weird sofa dude was born as James Donald Bowman, and JD Vance is his preferred name.
Keep that in mind when he attacks people with preferred names and deadnames trans folks.
James Donald Bowman, and JD Vance is his preferred name.
You mean, Shay D Vance?
shadynasty’s
I too, enjoy calling him shady vance
From someone who isn’t from the Anglo world, it’s fucking weird how you guys never use your given name and you can use your preferred name on official paper, it also made my old job a freaking pain.
is jd vance his legal name?
Yes, because he legally changed it. He was born James Donald Bowman and was later James David Hamel before the James David Vance he is today.
There has to be something he’s running away from. That’s weird! Two name changes? I look at my name and don’t think twice about it. I could be called Doughnut Trump and probably live out my life. I wouldn’t go ask a judge to please change my name to Jason Markonovic and then then have a change of heart and call my self Duke Salamantis. The fact that he did that is just weird and he should come forward and explain it.
From what I read, the first time was because Donald Bowman was his birth father’s name. When his mother remarried, he took a random D name to keep the same initial and his stepfather’s last name. Finally, he chose Vance in honor of his grandmother who raised him. He has changed personalities wildly over the years as well. Borderline Personality Disorder. perhaps?
That’s not how bpd works lol
No, I don’t think he actually has it. But it is one of the first things that came to mind when I read about his name and personality changes over the years.
I have bpd, i get it lol
He does whatever he thinks will get him further. There was an interview that surfaced where he was talking about Thiel recognizing him as someone who will do anything for anyone if it gets him ahead
It’s his biological name.
What was the couch fucker born with a tatoo of its name on its back?
That’s weird, normal people don’t have to try to convince others that they’re not weird.
This is it. This is the Dem response. Wrap it up people! We’re done here.
“That was some weird shit.”
— George W. Bush after Trump’s inauguration speech
Read the article and you would
Edit (after numerous downvotes): Please read OP’s article to learn that George W Bush said this.
Are you stupid?
Maybe. My point was that the quote you gave was in the article already. Maybe that’s stupid to you.
Edit: the quote was in OP’s article. Please read that article.
It is stupid to me. because I did read the article. Im the one who went and got it from the internet and shared it here.
I was verifying it was a real thing that happened because the Internet is full of bs and that is too fitting for the current trends of Dems calling maga weird to just believe on faith.
How is that not obvious to you through context? Are you new to Internet forums?
I’m imagining in your head where it’s the biggest coincidence in the world that my comment where I was laughing and saying wow I didn’t know that includes an article with a reputable source saying it did happen and for some reason I DIDNT READ IT. And then you are acting fuckin aggro about me not reading my own link?
I have so many questions about what life is like for you day to day. You should be studied.
Hey. Sorry to have pissed you off so bad. Not my intention.
Here’s where I am coming from. OP posted an article. It contains a direct quote from George W Bush stating that Trump’s inauguration speech was weird shit. You went and found another article stating the exact same thing as OPs and said you had no idea that Bush had said that. I was trying to indicate that the direct quote was clearly stated in the original article. You finding another source is redundant is all I was trying to say. It’s a direct quote from a tweet of a former President. We don’t need it to be fact checked. He said it. It’s real.
Have a good one, friend.
So the best version of your thesis is telling a bunch of people on a boat that aren’t wearing swimwear or planning on swimming that the water is good for swimming.
To be clear, you were being a snotty shit head and didn’t have to say anything at all. But then you did anyway, and it was pointless. So pointless that you didn’t even say it clearly enough to be understood.
Like my comment to the bush quote guy with a source is for all the people who clicked on the comments without wanting to read the rolling stone article. Your comment is for no one.
It’s so perfect. Knowing this feels like $6000 of therapy
“We’re not weird people.”
Sounds like something a weird person would say
The ex-president has grumbled that it makes no sense to him that any “weird” attacks on Vance would stick in the public consciousness, not when Harris has, for instance, “that laugh.”
Yeah, because he doesn’t see how goddamn weird Vance is with his obsession with child birth and childless women. He sounds like he came from an alternate dimension where the Handmaids Tale was real. It’s creepy as hell.
Meanwhile, a simple laugh has Trump spooked. He can’t understand a normal laugh. It’s super weird.
I can’t wait until somebody finds Vance’s mpreg manga stash, you know he’s into it.
oh, is that the latest weird genre from Japan? Mpreg manga, as in “impregnating your imoto witch to fight ‘not the jews’ in space?”
I know you are but what am I, glad to see he’s going with the Peewee defence.
I don’t make monkeys, I train them
Honestly, I was concerned he was going to proudly proclaim his weirdness and start selling a bumper sticker. Weird would be over in a day or two.
Instead, it looks like he’s grabbed a shovel and has started digging that hole deeper.
Wait… JD Vance? The guy who fucked that couch? Jesus Christ… He’s defending the couch fucker. Lol. What a clown.
The makeup was a giveaway, I guess… That weird fucker looks orange he’s got so much on. Anyone else know a orange man? Seriously. Anyone else?
…anyone?
The guy who fucked that couch? Shay D Vance is now a legend of the weird.
We could say that fucking a couch is weird and that wearing orange makeup on the daily is weird as well!
AP news will neither confirm nor deny that JD Vance had sex with a sofa.
I saw some orange men in a movie once about a candy factory.
What a weirdo!
Well, if people get tired of saying weird, we’ve got some alternatives: odd, abnormal, unusual, freak,
god he really is skibidi
edit: and vance is literally ohio
Bizarre too
If my 2nd grade self is to be believed, the “I am rubber you are glue” defense is unbeatable.
Lets see how it plays put for Trump.
You left out “times 10”
“Oh yeah??? You’re weird times a million! Ha!”
That’s such a weird thing for him to say.
“No puppet. No puppet. You’re the puppet.”
Ugh, and he WON that election…
with a minority vote #justUSAthings
Well. Finally got under his skin.
Good.
His loose, floppy, old man skin…
