So, the Dems new talking point is that Trump and Vance are “weird”

[Anonymous]

Well, Trump is super weird. Weirder than any lgbt person I have ever met.

I'm even considered "weird" by some and am 100% less weird than Trump.

Calling someone weird in a bad way feels like what we’re trying to get away from - bullying, othering, shaming for being different.

Now that said, bullying, othering, shaming for being different is exactly what the Republicans do - call it what it is. Not “weird.”

Most normal Americans don't want weird politicians. We want boring, capable, and ethical politicians who do not have their nose buried in their bizarro Twitter feed for 8+ hours per day (literally a lot of Congress critters are reading Twitter that much per day and are OBSESSED with their engagement metrics).

We don't mind when they are weird but good - you know, eclectic weird, interesting weird - but when they are the kind of weird that makes you think they'd hold you hostage in their basement for your own good, that's a different story.

So you admit you’re a hypocrite.

Good god.

I keep seeing on social media that they had their kids with IVF. Is that something she's mentioned in the record? If yes, isolated, that's not terribly abnormal for a pair of yuppies in their 30s, but with everything else about him, it certainly raises an(other) eyebrow about his sexuality.

Vance is a millennial who grew up with Facebook and camera phones and seems to have been a boozer in the military and at OSU, yet there's literally zero record of him with co-eds before he married his wife, who he didn't meet until he was a 25 or 26 year old law student.

Womanizer like Trump = unacceptable, probable rapist
Married father with scandal-free past = weirdo, probably gay
Who exactly would you consider to have a normal past? Do you think your favorite Republican Mitt Romney left a trail of heartbroken coeds at college? And throwing the weird label around is a joke considering the Star Wars cantina coalition you're trying to unite.

I remember not that long ago when any hint of a scandal was exposed of a politician, including those from the party of family values, would be the death knell of your political career.

That no longer seems to be the case.

If the religious right want a country with Christian values, I'm all for it, but at least practice what you preach and don't select a convicted felon, rapist, cheater who has sex with a porn star while his wife is pregnant, to be your leader. That's just not a good look for you.

Not that pp, but when someone thinks that Hannibal Lecter is actually real, newsflash, they are weird.

When someone tries to control the movement of a hurricane with a Sharpie, they are weird.

If you aren't embarrassed you raw dogged a porn story while your wife was having a baby, you might be weird.

And so on.

A lot of people are a little weird. Trump is a whole lot of weird.

This whole thread is ick. It’s like the women from the view have decided to get in here and spew talking point after talking point.

I don’t care how a person identifies sexually. I also don’t care about a politicians personal life. I care about the business of running the country…minimizing our debt, responsible management of our borders, foreign relations…you know, all of the real things adults are supposed to discuss and care about. You all posting in here personify ignorance.

Absolutely! You can't look at JD especially, and think 'There goes a totally normal guy!'. And we ALLLLLL know that Trump is weird. It's a really simple message that people will mostly agree with.

So that kind of weird doesn’t sit well with you, but you’re okay with a man, that has a penis, competing in women’s sports? Hypocrite.

You know what kind of weird doesn't sit well with me?

People who can't stop thinking about genitals when they watch or talk about sports.

People like you need therapy. A LOT of therapy. Someone must have done a number on you when you were a kid to be this obsessed with sex organs at a sporting event.

That is such a flat, stupid argument. Tell that to the girls that have to tolerate a grown man in their locker room. What a lame response to gaslight me so you don’t have to focus on the actual facts. Hypocrite.

Tell it to the girls who had Trump in their locker room? https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/a-timeline-of-donald-trumps-creepiness-while-he-owned-miss-universe-191860/

This make Trump 100% weird and creepy.

Wow, I thought I knew all the Trump stories, but that's a new one for me. And probably the creepiest one yet. Eck, I don't know how anybody can live with themselves voting for this guy.

Here's another link without a subscription wall:
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/donald-trump-former-miss-arizona-tasha-dixon-naked-undressed-backstage-howard-stern-a7357866.html

Four women who competed in the 1997 Miss Teen USA beauty pageant also said the Republican used to walk in. Some of the girls were as young as 15.

Former Miss Vermont Teen USA, Mariah Billado, told Buzzfeed: "I remember putting on my dress really quick because I was like, 'Oh my god, there's a man in here."

Three other girls chose to remain anonymous, but told the publication it was "creepy" and "shocking".

Mr Trump said on the Howard Stern radio show in 2005 that he was “allowed”, as the owner of the pageant, to go backstage while the contestants were getting dressed.

Ewww,

What does that have to do with his ability to run the country? Or do you only vote for people if you enjoy their memes?

That's nice, I do care if a man brags about looking at kids naked, getting undressed.

Trump's made politics personal. He and Vance just happen to be on the receiving end here for a chance (and they're a weird, disturbing duo as you've seen). This just may not be the thread for you. There are plenty to choose from.

He can't run the country either, but when we point to that the right goes nuts (no pun intended) talking about genitals. I'm happy to debate the issues, I'm also happy to sling mud right back at them. So talented!

But you want a man in the locker room to check genitals.

Sad attempt to deflect from the actual point. Your lack of intellect is showing.

NP. He is also grossly incapable of running the country. Get your head out of your ass, my god.
