Why are they not talking about couches? What have they got to hide? Seems kinda suspicious.

I agree. It seems like something you'd deny outright. It raises questions about whether or not Trump is a couch-fucker, or if MAGA republicans endorse couch-fucking. Is this their political agenda? To fuck my couch? Or your couch? Are they recruiting my furniture into their couch-fucking culture? There are a lot of questions here.
Probably gonna need a congressional inquiry to get to the bottom of this one.

This was just a silly joke that got WAY out of hand. The author isn’t even trying to claim it’s real. Getting defensive and angry is the worst possible way to respond - therefore, I hope they keep doing it.
It would be something to see a headline about JD Vance denying having relations with a couch
Wonder if it'll happen
I did not have sexual relations with that couch

You think fucking couches is a joke? Furniture abortions are at an all-time high and you think it's some kind of silly joke?
Come on. You and I both know that those stats are cushioned.

Apparently, the only way to get under their skin is to sink down to their level a bit. It's funny how much attention some of this stuff actually got. They are just so weird!
It's not even close to sinking to their level. This shit is harmless. That makes it especially hilarious to see them blow a gasket over something so lame. Trump wants to take his ball and go home.
No, convicted felon, and genuinely weird creepy Donald Trump, will take your ball and go home.

"We're not going to talk about couches or coconuts or whatever weird fetish KamalaHQ is into," Cheung said, also referencing the coconut memes associated with Harris' political persona. "When we have something to say, we'll say loud and clear. If Kamala is a coward, we'll call her a coward. If Tim Walz is a liar, we'll call him a liar."
Weird way to not talk about couches bro.
Wait, lying is a problem now? Somebody better let Trump know.
Lying is only a problem if you’re a Democrat.
If you’re a republican they expect you to.
when we have something to say, we'll say it loud and clear
Uh huh, like calling her a "DEI hire". Or maybe the implied racism is sufficiently loud and clear for them
It’s really a lot of couch talk for a campaign declaring no couch talk 🤷♂️

I understand, I don't like when people bring up my ex either.
That’s because Flipper Vance is getting too much attention with all this couch action.
Anyday now Trump will crack and announce that he had lots of couches back in his day more than anyone and when your rich they let you do it to their couches with tears in their eyes saying thank you sir. Big strong men with big strong couches. Some of them were on the younger side to be sure but they liked the couches as much as I did.

You're not supposed to announce that you're not going to talk about something...

Vladimir Futon.
From the article:
That's spurred criticism from the right that — even if the meme is tongue-in-cheek — Democrats are spreading baseless lies about one of their political opponents.
Because the Republicans would never stoop to such a low!
"I did not have sexual relations with that settee!"
Sectional relations
“Not going to talk about couches”? Oh yes you are. You’ve been hoisted by your own petard, and you’re gonna stay up there till we decide to take you down (we won’t, you deserve it).

We're gonna talk about them endlessly.
Convicted felon Donald Project 2025 Trump's campaign says it's 'not going to talk about couches', in reference to JD Couch Fucker Vance
COUCHES are being used in SCHOOLS to FORCE kids to have sex! We need to BAN these sick perverted couches. THEY want your children to stop having kids.
GET THEM OUT OF SCHOOLS
Or something deranged like that.
If their voters are willing to wear t-shirts saying "real men wear diapers", we need to get in on this racket and sell "real men fuck couches" and "better a couch-fucker than a Democrat!" shirts, then after a certain threshold of sales and enough time for Vance and Trump to notice and comment on the phenomenon, we can reveal that the profits are being donated to Kamala and that every shirt sold has a secret message written around the image in a tiny font that says "if you can read this, you're a fucking moron".
Don't worry, we'll talk about it for you
Sounds like it just did
