Again, his comments framing higher tax rates as "punishment" for childless families is kinda the issue here IMO. 

Just no political sense whatsoever. 

This-especially since there are plenty of people who would love to have children, but are unable to. It's pouring salt in already painful wounds.

particularly when they ban IVF because it wasn't in the Old Testament.

Right, I would rather Vance be framed as a dangerous man we have to take seriously, versus a clown we can laugh at and dismiss. A lot of us did that with Trump eight years ago and how did that turn out.

I don't think anyone is dismissing JD Vance or Donald Trump at this point. But ridicule and humiliation are really powerful weapons against these types of people and they should be employed whenever the opportunity proves worthy.

Now, with the couch thing, I don't know the veracity of it, but in terms of things he has said and done, they should be addressed including through these concepts.

"Cat lady" is a bigger deal.   Trump firing his campaign staff because of their rank incompetence might not change your vote but it will cause disruption for him.   So, anything that leads to that outcome works.  

"We are not going to have a socialist president...especially a female."

I would also add that while the threat posed by a potential Trump/Vance presidency are real, the Harris campaign and other Dems need to balance those stakes with the need to project both a more positive image and an image of being "happy warriors" in this fight. Because this will draw a distinct contrast between the dark vision that Trump/Vance is putting forward.

Engage in the serious stuff, but don't lose your humanity in the process.

Why all the focus on women?
 

 

Simple. It's okay when a man does it. In fact, it means that he's unselfish and frees him up to serve his constituents without the distraction of a wife and children.

Because a woman’s purpose is to have kids and be servile to the man. Lindsay and Tim go go avout and have kids any time.

Sorry, I forgot momentarily that he's a senator so I believe him when it wasn't sarcasm and also I believe him when the same statement was sarcasm.   To do otherwise is bullying my fellow posters.
