He's usually partial to hide-a-beds but I could see him interested in pullouts too.
he's probably hiding between his lover's cushions.
I hear he's been cheating on it with a futon.
Dude, you need an NSFW tag on that! /s
Glue a small, gray pearl at the top in the center fold. Perfection.
(There's a tip in there for some of you guys. If you can find it.)
Like he would even pay attention to it 🙄
😲
“GUYS! Get me my glove!”
Haven’t physically LOLed in a long time. Excellent work sir.
Well when you put it that way...
When's he going to settle down with a nice chesterfield from a good home?
Yeah, it's a guy from the ottoman empire
Maybe James Vance will find the courage to debate Walz if he shows up as the always fabulous Sofa Lauren.
I thought we all agreed on Anita Cushion
Wait until everyone hears about Chester Field, his Canadian fling
Ok enough with all these transgendered names… we all know he’s a hetero-sectional.
The credits listed him as Chase Long
I don't know, I heard he practices Hung Futon
Ok, yeah, looks like article was updated after OP posted. Kind of shitty the author didn’t explicitly state that in the article, especially since they changed the headline.
JD Vance finally commits to two VP debates with CBS and CNN against Tim Walz
JD Vance initially refused to commit to a debate – in a move that echoed his running mate Donald Trump’s back-and-forth with Kamala Harris
Well at least maybe we’re going to get the debate now!
Maybe JD knows he will replaced by then?
I thought it's too late for that now.
Let's hope candidate shuffling isn't a new trend.
Let's hope it is. There's no reason to be campaigning for 2 years prior to the election if the candidates might change anyway.
It doesn't mean the campaigning will be shorter, just that everything will further turn into attack ads on incumbents
How well did that work out for them this time? Trump was whining about all the attack ads they did on the incumbent.
I finally realized this guy's name reminds me of some in house menswear brand at Sears or K-Mart or some other department store that suffered and wheezed and whimpered before going out of business.
JD Vance Suspenders for Men & Boys
Just agree to have couches for each debater.
No, then Vance will become a master debater
Just schedule the debate, and have something like this ready for if he no-shows:

Oh he doesn't want to get smacked down by smaj.
Both Trump and Vance are scared of words!
But only because they don't understand them
But… the article says he did commit?
Article has since been updated.
Did you not read the article?
I did. The article is a shit show of confusing timelines, but the very first paragraph says:
JD Vance has finally committed to two vice presidential debates on CBS News and CNN against his Democratic rival Tim Walz.
That's the least ambiguously worded sentence in that piece, and it says he's agreed to them.
I just heard JD Vance campaign will only agree to the debate if it takes place in a Brown Squirrel Furniture.... For reasons.
