A nationally televised interview would clarify this matter once and for all. ---

I heard it was a fainting couch. He took advantage while it was unconscious. Someone needs to ask where Cosby was at the time. ---

I totally agree. We should ignore the couch fucking and concentrate on the issues. The constitution makes no mention of couch fucking in its list of requirements for the vice president. It is entirely possible that someone who fucks couches, or fresh produce for that matter has all the qualities needs to be president. Not that I’m saying he fucks rutabagas, there is no more evidence of that he fucks them than that he fucks ripened Brie, or warm bags of manure. I’m just saying that what a candidate does in the privacy of his own bedroom, or living room, or refrigerator, or garden shed, or linen closet, should not count against him when it comes to deciding who to vote for. ---

Is it appropriate, given the proclivities of certain Republicans for illegally young partners to ponder the age of the alleged couch that Vance allegedly fucked? Because, we’re long past the age of heirloom household furniture. I _doubt_ any alleged couch that was allegedly fucked by Vance could have been considered of legal age! Not that I’m saying Vance is a child-couch fucker, I just want to protect the children-couch! ---

Yesterday Kyle Rittenhouse said he wasn’t going to vote for Trump (and instead vote for Paul) because of 2A issues. After less than a day of harassment, financial abandonment, and being accused of many things (including being trans), he just capitulated with basically a “I searched my soul” tweet. > [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/a-perfectly-reasonable-amount-of-schadenfreude-about-things-happening-to-trump-his-enablers-part-2/984250.md?page=365) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/a-perfectly-reasonable-amount-of-schadenfreude-about-things-happening-to-trump-his-enablers-part-2/984250.md?page=367)
