How weird that they're so weird about being called "weird".
But seriously, it seems like Republicans need to think they're in the majority. "Silent majority" and all that BS. Calling them "weird" makes them confront how much of an outlier they are. Maybe that's part of the source of their deep insecurity about being called "weird." Maybe also just the desire to not feel like the unpopular kids in highschool.
Boomers simply can't handle criticism, especially when it comes from people they openly disdain like minorities, LGBTQ or young people. They can't handle it. But yeah, being called weird seems to tap into some deep insecurity they have. Nooo, I'm the norm! I'm supposed to be the default experience. You can't call us weird!
I think this particular jab hits home for Trump a lot harder than anyone else due to the narcissism. It may also apply to conservatives in general but I don't think it's necessarily a widely applicable generalization.
Not weird at all. Totally normal human.
He looks like he just witnessed a nuclear weapon go off at close range. Fucking weirdo.
Definitely Looney Toons vibes.
And here I always considered him having just taken his face out of the loot bag the dye-pak just went off in.
So jealous with his weird confused boner for Kamala being bi-racial, he tried to give it a go himself with makeup.
Epic fail, what a creepy freak
The permanent tint from having spaghetti in tupperware just once.
The fact that calling them weird is making them so mad is the funniest shit I've seen all week. And they call everyone else snowflakes lmao
I haven't felt this way since metal gear solid, where to beat psycho mantis, you simply had to remove your controller from the player one port and put it into player two for the fight. In both cases, the solution is so absurd and simple, it's crazy it actually works.
That's weird, normal people don't have to try to convince others that they're not weird.
This is it. This is the Dem response. Wrap it up people! We're done here.
“That was some weird shit.”
— George W. Bush after Trump’s inauguration speech
Don't forget that weird sofa dude was born as James Donald Bowman, and JD Vance is his preferred name.
Keep that in mind when he attacks people with preferred names and deadnames trans folks.
James Donald Bowman, and JD Vance is his preferred name.
You mean, Shay D Vance?
From someone who isn't from the Anglo world, it's fucking weird how you guys never use your given name and you can use your preferred name on official paper, it also made my old job a freaking pain.
"We're not weird people."
Sounds like something a weird person would say
The ex-president has grumbled that it makes no sense to him that any “weird” attacks on Vance would stick in the public consciousness, not when Harris has, for instance, “that laugh.”
Yeah, because he doesn't see how goddamn weird Vance is with his obsession with child birth and childless women. He sounds like he came from an alternate dimension where the Handmaids Tale was real. It's creepy as hell.
Meanwhile, a simple laugh has Trump spooked. He can't understand a normal laugh. It's super weird.
I can't wait until somebody finds Vance's mpreg manga stash, you know he's into it.
I know you are but what am I, glad to see he's going with the Peewee defence.
I don't make monkeys, I train them
Wait... JD Vance? The guy who fucked that couch? Jesus Christ... He's defending the couch fucker. Lol. What a clown.
The makeup was a giveaway, I guess... That weird fucker looks orange he's got so much on. Anyone else know a orange man? Seriously. Anyone else?
...anyone?
What a weirdo!
Well, if people get tired of saying weird, we've got some alternatives: odd, abnormal, unusual, freak, 
god he really is skibidi
edit: and vance is literally ohio
If my 2nd grade self is to be believed, the "I am rubber you are glue" defense is unbeatable.
Lets see how it plays put for Trump.
That’s such a weird thing for him to say.
an actual "no u" what a child
I think it's hilarious because there is a good segment of the population that grew up in the 90s whose parents would be like... "George Michael is 'weird'... Melissa Etheridge is 'weird'"
So now, their euphemism for a non-heterosexual person has been turned around on them and that's great. Their hate and non-acceptance is now what is "weird"
If they want to downplay the weirdness they should kiss on stage.
Trump does look like a wrinkly couch...
Weird
Weird old man thinks laughing is weird.
I have an idea; if they find a really beat-up leather couch and put a shitty blonde wig on it they can both get their rocks off. Vance because he will fuck anything leather on 4 legs and trump because it would look like his troglodyte daughter he eye-fucks at every occasion.
Really pull the team together, they could probably stream it on OANN or newsmax and help build up some PAC funds to boot.
This feels like that scene in Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back where they in the Moobies and Jay is dictating the forum post to Silent Bob, "You are the ones who are the ball-lickers."
Nobody’s ever called me weird.
That's what happens if you surround yourself with spineless yes-men. Now you hear real men and women say the truth. And they call you and your mates "weird" and "creepy" just because you are!
What an absolute stinky, lil weirdo
He's correct, neither of them are weird. They are both clearly... CREEPY! SUPER SUPER CREEPY!
But we have about thousands of hours of Trump footage where he's being weird? Spanning the last, what, 6 decades?
Weirdo says what?
I guess weirdos flock together.
lmao he did the thing
Yeah, it's weird to fuck a couch and it's weirder to lust after your daughter.
