At least he didn’t SLAM Democrats. What a relief
I have some bad news about the first sentence in the article
Crap, I didn’t read the article, I just wanted to do my joke and be done with it.
If I’m being honest I read the one sentence, thought “oh that’s really funny in light of the top comment,” came back to share the bad news, and forgot about the article entirely.
“We have the lamest opposition in American history,” Vance wrote on the social media
For once I agree with Vance. I wish Democrats would do something useful to stop MAGA. They are showboating but still voting for his appointments. Looking at you, Corey Booker.
Okay…. So I think at this point, one of the democrats should buy one of their interns a new couch and take the old one to Vance’s house and slap a sign that says “Free… I got stood up” outside.
Why is Vicious Mockery so effective against these clowns?
I mean. If they were competent and confident in what they’re doing they really wouldn’t be bothered by stuff like this. But every time whether its covfefe or taco or couch fucking they just melt like a wicked witch being given a swirly.
The fact that this TACO thing bothers him that much is the best reason to not only continue, but to expand that campaign.
🎶🪈🎶 SHORT!
In what way has this Taco truck charade been “effective”?
It hasn’t. Not in any real way. But these republicans get extremely, earth-shatteringly, unreasonably fuck-ass mad over this kind of stuff.
Nothing anyone does or even can do will matter until we get rid of Citizens United. Until that point we’re an oligarchy, not a democracy or even a republic.
If nothing anyone does could possibly matter, what avenues are there to get rid of Citizens United?
[REDACTED]
Did you even say Thank You for the tacos, James Donald Bowman?
Learn some manners!
Thank you for deadnaming James Donald Bowman.
My personal campaign is deadnaming him in every thread that concerns him.
I’ll support the effort too!
They “deployed” a taco truck. Everything is militarized with these tangerine, brain worm, couch fucking losers.
Oh, and FREE tacos! Who doesn’t want free tacos!
Trump always chickens out — we’re just bringing the tacos to match,” DNC Chair Ken Martin said in a statement on the food truck’s message. “Instead of realizing his tariff chaos is wrecking the economy, Trump continues to drag America towards more economic pain, and the rest of the world sees Trump for exactly what he is: a chicken.”
Still waiting on people to wise up that Martin is actually legit.
The dude knows what he’s doing
Takes easy shots for internet points while maintaining the status quo and not trying for any actual improvements
The Dems are legit and got it figured out now!

That better for you?
An article saying they’re taking in more private money and giving it to their state reps? Without any mention of policy or government planning?
No actually, can’t really put my finger on why, but that really doesn’t do it for me.
and giving it to their state reps?
No, to state parties…
The state parties that neoliberals spent almost a decade bankrupty thru the victory fund.
Like, it’s not writing checks to politicians, it’s paying staffers to work starting now instead of waiting till six months before an election.
Turning those into full time permanent positions, and a venue for an average working class person to become involved in politics.
I’m sorry you don’t understand how this is a big deal, so feel free to keep asking questions. It might help someone else who sees it too.
You’re one of their staffers, aren’t you? It’s easy to see really, talked right past me without getting a thing I said. Attitudes like that are why the Dems keep losing slam-dunk elections. All you’re saying is how well they’re building the machine, without any mention of what this machine is for and what they’re going to do with it.
Like, to start at the beginning we have to cover the “victory fund” that started in 2016.
See, in 2008 Obama bucked tradition by ignoring the DNC and refusing to nominate a chair. This allowed neoliberals to maintain control, but with Obama not working with the DNC they were broke by the time he left.
Hilary’s primary campaign started paying the DNC’s bills, and in return they got approval of everything the DNC did. They also greenlit the “victory fund” which allowed someone to bundle donations to the DNC, a candidate, and state party all at their donation limits.
But all the money went to the DNC. Which shared with Hillary/Biden/Kamala. In 2016 I think it was 1% of the money went back to the states. In the past the states got those “overflow” donations that let Dems be more competitive in purple and red districts.
So for about a decade that money has dried up and that’s how telubyhave majorities.
Paying that money back to the state parties allows them to start working on voter outreach and engaging with voters, hearing their issues and explaining how Dems can fix it, if we get the votes.
It’s not about the fucking money dude! No one gives a shit, you’ve got it bassakwards. You’re so wrapped up in getting enough to beat the other team that you’re completely missing what your voters actually want. Love them or hate them, Obama, Bernie, and even Trump showed you guys that if you talk to people, if you speak their language, and (in Trump’s case pretend to) address their concerns, that other shit won’t matter.
Maybe so but the majority of the rest of the Democrats have no fucking clue what they’re doing and actively undermine anything the minority of Democrats and progressives do to effectively oppose these fascists.
but the majority of the rest of the Democrats
Decades of neoliberals shenigans have conflated “the party” with individual elected representatives
That was never how it was supposed to work
We just took a big step in fixing that. Martin doesn’t play favorites, the winner of the primary is who the party will support, and they’re not gonna pick sides till a primary is over.
The only reason a lot of those elected representatives are even still in office is the party fought off primary challengers for decades protecting them. They can’t win fair primaries, even with the money advantage
They know exactly what they are doing: stroking off the corporate money spigots.
I read this too early and the crash blossom headline made me think someone was getting physically knocked over a taco truck. I got excited for a second to see a literal brawl happen between congress folk.
Dear Mr. Vance, if this protest by the opposition is as lame as you say, why do you acknowledge it at all?
I can only conclude that this protest have gotten under your and Mr. Trump’s skin, and you don’t have any effective counter to it.
You are not allowed to call him “Vance” because that is not what is on his birth certificate.
It’s James.
Hummm, I wonder how many would understand who I was talking about if I called him Mr. Bowman?
Also, that fucking idiot is just three years older than me, what?
HA! That’s PROOF that THIS is MUCH More Effective then Stopping Trump’s AGENDA!
-The DNC!
Look at the comments here. All this bs, zero effort distraction while p2025 gets stuff done.
Snowflakes
The way the headline was written, I thought there was an actual brawl.
Taco Jr has feefees
If they weren’t serving exclusively chicken tacos, that’s a missed opportunity 😂
He needs to shut his fucking mouth and go stick his micro pud in another couch.
