      for these people, kids are a means to an end instead of an end in themselves. like those insufferable rich hags who carry around a tiny lapdog everywhere just to show it off. either that, or the kids are “accidents” doomed to neglect. either way, i’m skeptical of the notion that they actually give a fuck

        Personally I don’t understand these kind of people either, who endorse something that directly goes against themselves (e.g. in case of gays in conservative parties) or their children. But I think there also is another way to view this behavior:

        Because besides being a father of biracial children, he is one other important thing: rich. And he only gains to get richer from playing towards the maga crowd.

        So how much do we actually expect his children to suffer the consequences? They’ll probably grow up privileged in good neighborhoods, get great education, own their homes and advance in their careers through connections.

          They will be fine, thanks to the dogged efforts of Vance’s political opponents.

          Probably.

        Well he’s made it clear that to him it’s important to have children for appearances and political points.

    This is basically like if back in 2015 after Trump insulted Ted Cruz’s wife, Cruz became his VP pick and defended the insults, haha. Totally spineless, no limit to how far he will debase himself and his family for a position in the administration.

    This is the kind of man Trump loves. You can call his wife a dog, you can call his children scum, and he’ll still suck Trump’s toadstool dick.

    He complained that she is a chameleon that changes whenever it suits her.

    The reporter said speaking of chameleons, you used to hate Trump and say you were a never Trumper. At which point I fucking lost it.

    It’s totally reasonable to assume Vance is a spineless piece of trash who would throw his own kids under the bus to try to appeal to his racist demographic. It’s reasonable because it’s already happened.

    I have a dream that one day my children will not be judged by color of their upholstery but by the comfyness of their cushions.

    Being a cuck for the orange man is their brand identity. JD is not alone. Look at Turd Cruz - Trump calls his wife ugly and he still gargles trump’s balls twice daily

    Has anyone told JD Vance that his kids are not white ?

    I mean … I have no idea what the qualifications for carrying a “white card” is these days … but don’t they generally revoke it if you are “bi” anything ?

    So put him on the spot. “State definitely for everyone to hear whether your children are black or white, and don’t you dare change your answer ever again. Both, apparently, is not an option.”
