No, JD Vance did not have sex with a couch

CLAIM: Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance wrote in his 2016 memoir about having sex with a couch.

AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. Vance does not write about performing such an act in his bestselling book. A searchable PDF of the memoir includes 10 mentions of the word “couch” or “couches,” none of which are related to accounts of salacious escapades. Some social media users have claimed the story appears on pages 179 to 181, where Vance actually writes about his first days as a freshman at The Ohio State University.

I’ll bet that almost no one who shares this has read the book

Even here on FR quite a few don't read the entire article.

Same with the cat lady childless woman that was said in 2021 by Vance in jest I’m sure. The media are out for Vance.

A fact check reveals that Melissa Goldin is NOT a child molester.
LBJ accused his congressional opponent of fornicating with pigs, under the theory that if he denied it he'd be validating the accusation.

It's amazing how naive James Madison was about a vast nation's ability to produce virtuous citizens (Federalist 10). Worse, it's amazing that Madison's theory has protected us from even less virtuous leaders than those we've been stuck with.

Like the classic "Are you still beating your wife?".

More than one report said Johnson liked sneaking into a guest's bedroom and coerce them into sex citing his position as President. So who's really the swine here?

Yes, LBJ a was a disgusting sexual predator, he’d rape the wives of staff members, he screwed the wife of one of prominent newscasters at the time. He screwed Doris Goodman, she was the wife of LBJ’s speech writer.

Buckle up people….. this is only the beginning. You ain’t seen nothing yet. Wait until they start releasing information about his relationship with Peter Thiel. Bad, bad choice for Trump. He probably can’t and won’t be elected now, even without voter fraud.

There is nothing to reveal about Vance and Thiel. It’s a complete nothing of a story. Vance remains the best choice. Just look at his list of enemies—all the WORST people. The dolphin story will be shared for a week at most and people will forget about it, but they will remember his strong anti-communism stance.

They’re getting ready for an October Surprise. This is just the warm up. Lots of horrible stories about him will emerge before then though.

Of course there is. I plan on getting out a big bucket of popcorn for this one. Trump better drop Vance fast. Dr. Carson would be a good replacement. He might win back some of the votes he’s been losing the past few days. Otherwise Trump is going to lose…. Badly.
