  1. I don’t care about Vance’s ability to order donuts like a normal person. As long as he’s suitably experienced and able to step in on day one and lead the country forward ably should the geriatric individual at the top of the ticket die, I’d be satisfied.

    Oh wait…

  2. >“Look at me, I have no problem picking out donuts.”

    I love Walz. I’m a single issue “I want the guy that can order donuts in the White House” voter now. lol

    Great stuff. I hope JV doesn’t back out of the debate.

  3. I mean… it wouldn’t be hard coming off as more Human then JD Vance, the guy is such a weirdo that it felt like he has never shopped or bought something from a fast food joint before

    I love this about Walz. otoh, Vance probably had to practice ordering doughnuts 20 times before his human handlers released him into the doughnut shop. And predictably, because JD Vance is one really weird mf, he came off like the alien he is, one who just landed on earth from a galaxy 3 trillion^trillion^trillion… light-years away.

  5. I don’t blame Minnesota from keeping this guy from us for so long. He’s a gem that I wouldn’t want to give up, either.

    I ordered the camo hat some time ago, and it should be shipping soon. If it is the same one that Hope is wearing here, I can already tell it’s gonna be too small for my giant head 🙁

  7. Lol, but tbh I’m totally JD in social situations though…buying shit in person is so awkward. But then again I’m not running for VP and I don’t fuck couches so I don’t feel too bad for him.

    Favorite part about this is it feels authentic. I am sure this is exactly what Walz would be like if he went into a bakery just on a normal Tuesday afternoon or something.

    this is what it looks like to have an advance team. this is what it looks like to research what the store sells and specializes in so you can ask interesting questions, like where did the whoopie pie originate. then you actually have an interesting, engaging conversation with the store owner.

    like, it’s not hard. and yet the Republicans don’t bother or don’t care or are just too dumb.

  10. JD Vance is weird. No one wants to talk to the weird guy

    T Walz isn’t at all like Vance. And that’s a good thing !

  11. Store owner: “The next thing I’d recommend is the apple cider donuts”

    Hope Walz: “oh I already grabbed those”

    “Hi. Yeah . . . I’ll take two glazed. Thanks. Oh! And bearclaw. Thanks again.”

    Not that hard, Vance, you fucking weirdo.

  13. This “look at me” comment was so obviously a self deprecating comment from a dad saying he’s a bit stout because he obviously loves eating donuts. Classic dad humor.

    I’m easily voting for the dude, am from Minnesota, but the media twisting everything to context it’s not related to is beyond bizarre.

  14. > “I’m JD Vance, and I’m running for vice president,” the Republican candidate said to a worker as he walked into Holt’s Sweet Shop in Valdosta, Georgia, last week.

    > “OK,” she responded. Vance then ordered “a lot” of glazed doughnuts, “some sprinkle stuff,” cinnamon rolls, and “whatever makes sense” before he was asked to stop filming.

    I legit lol’d

  15. For ages conservatives talked about the “beer test” – they said they wanted a candidate that they felt like they could sit down and have a beer with.

    That’s not Vance nor is it Trump.

    Might night be Kamala either. But it sure is Walz.
