Why Are Democrats Acting So Silly Over JD Vance?

August 17, 2024 , ,

I can’t tell if this is a sign of the Democrats’ desperation or if they are truly as clueless as they seem. In recent weeks, folks on the left have been using some rather questionable messaging tactics against former President Donald Trump and his running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH).

For some reason, much of their ire has been directed at Vance. But their criticism has spanned from weak sauce to simply bizarre, which is what inspired this article.

Lately, folks on the left have been digging into Vance’s younger years to find damning or embarrassing information. Apparently, they have hit pay dirt – or so they think.

The first example exposes the awful reality that Vance used to be a young man who did young man things. An old picture posted on social media in 2007 showing Vance supposedly passed out after drinking. That’s right, folks, Vance tied one on 17 years ago, which means he is clearly not qualified to be the vice president.


Next, we have another picture from Vance’s high school days in which he poses with three female schoolmates in front of urinals in the restroom. You know, because it took place at a time when everyone knew that women couldn’t use urinals, which made it funny.


The Daily Mail published an article about the picture and even reached out to some of his other classmates.

No explanation was given in the yearbook itself as to why the three girls were in the bathroom, nor why they should be pictured with Vance.

But now, one of the three has explained to DailyMail.com the meaning behind the surprising shot.

It was to show the power of girls in that year's student government, one of the women who asked that her name not be used, said.

‘We thought it would be funny,’ she added.

'Usually it was all male officers, and we were an even split, and so it was sort of the opposite.'

The picture showed the four top student council officers – president, vice-president, secretary and treasurer.

Ironically Vance was vice-president, the position he is now seeking in federal government.

Nikki May, who was treasurer, told DailyMail.com she admires her former classmate.

'He was a great student and guy,' said May.

'I am very proud to say I went to high school with JD and [am] very impressed of the man he has become.'

For some reason, the authors of the piece seem to believe this photograph could be damaging. “It was taken in jest – and has a real meaning behind it – but, still, it is not a good look considering the other claims leveled at Donald Trump's pick for his Number Two,” they wrote.

So, let’s get this straight.

Sen. JD Vance did some drinking back in the day and posed for a funny picture. This is somehow supposed to turn voters off to the Trump/Vance ticket, thereby ensuring that Black Hillary and her liar of a running mate end up occupying the Oval Office after the 2024 election.

If the Democrats truly think this will work, they had better get back to that drawing board. If anything, these revelations only make him more relatable to those who aren’t already gung-ho about supporting Harris.

After all, Vance isn't the only person who's ever passed out after a night of too much drinking in their youth. Who hasn’t taken silly pictures in high school? Most people can relate to these things, a reality that might make Vance moreattractive to voters, not less.

But again, this could be simple desperation on the Democrats’ part. Perhaps they are just throwing whatever they can against the wall, hoping it will stick. But they are going to need a lot of glue to make something of this particular strategy.
