The GOP ticket of JD Vance and Donald Trump, from ‘menstrual surveillance’ to sexual assault, has made itself clear

The Republican party of the United States remains the party of denying women fundamental human rights. The US press as a whole remains the instrument of softening up or ignoring this reality.

“Trump has long been criticized for his public treatment of women,” ran a CNN headline. “The ones in his life argue he’s different in private.” What follows is a puff piece in which prominent Republican women say nice things about him, and his history of alleged sexual assault is mentioned several paragraphs down.

    Why would CouchFucker Vance deny women their rights?
    Does he deny sofas’ rights?

      I hear he wants to ban literature on convertible sofas and eliminate furniture protection plans entirely.

      Yo I hate to be that guy but idk if this one is the own you think it is.

      I’m not usually one to police humor, but as a woman this one just stoops a bit too deeply to their level for me to the point that it is indiscernible from the kinds of jokes that misogynists make with zero self-awareness.

      I have been so confused about this joke. I just now looked it up… Apparently a random Twitter user made this up and it’s based on absolutely nothing real. Continuously lying about what a political opponent did or said is what Republicans do. We should be a lot better than that shit. Maybe you thought this was based on something, but no, it was not. Just some idiot making shit up. Maybe fact check next time.
