Don’t let them forget that they loved JD Vance too. When he made a name for himself by shitting on rural, poor people a lot of libs thought he was one of their own.
To defend the redditors slightly (eww), J.D. Vance first made his name as a resistance lib who seemed like their perfect idea of a “moderate” republican. He was shitting on poor people in kentucky with his Hillbilly Elegy book / movie and I sort of remember him being on American TV and talking about how the people of appalachia had failed to adapt to the post-industrial world and instead turned to drugs, which was fucking catnip to liberals back in 2017. His turn came when he ran for senate in Ohio and had to beg and plead with Trump for an endorsement, before he ultimately won the republican primary and then the senatorial election.
