Vance would give a shit, when he is escorted to hang out at a gas station.

I think it is pretty clear he has no power, and is not actually involved in "doing" anything. He is just the mannequin saying whatever it is they want him to say.

Trump is going to die of natural causes. I feel like this guy might have a future with a noose

[–] dan1101@lemmy.world 32 points 2 days ago

These Nazis need to learn the meaning of due process, like those other Nazis. Enjoy your time of freedom couch fucker. No couches in prison.

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 24 points 2 days ago

Nothing new for the conservatives; this is just another one of their public figures now saying what they have been saying for decade upon decade behind closed doors.

This is exactly what the conservative movement is about. Rules? Those don't apply to US!

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 30 points 2 days ago (2 children)

It's very shortsighted for leaders to be pro anything that doesn't have due process.

If this regime doesn't keep power forever the next regime can just disappear him and his family and just paste his response saying he doesn't give a shit about due process when someone asks what happened to them.

[–] kreskin@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Well lets get on that. I presume they will disappear them to someplace nice, and Vance looks like he could use a long vaca.

[–] AcidiclyBasicGlitch@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I was actually thinking about mob justice vs due process yesterday, and how it applies to the most despicable individuals.

On the one hand, mob justice often provides a sense of that guy definitely got what he deserved. But on the other, news about what happened to Mussolini's body was allegedly what preceded Hitler's decision to kill himself.

If history had been allowed to witness the two (not to mention Himmler) truly brought to justice on a world stage, could it have potentially decreased the chances others would feel emboldened enough to follow in their footsteps?

After what Russia's done in the last 10 years without any real consequences, nobody gives a shit anymore.

[–] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Well, that and Israel committing genocide.

Edit: wait @vga@sopuli.xyz do you seriously still deny the genocide in Gaza?

[–] pleaseletmein@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 day ago

I don’t give a shit if the couch sues him for child support.

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 22 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I don't give a shit if Vance catches a stray

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 19 points 2 days ago (1 children)

cat. Sorry, posted before I finished the sentence. Definitely meant a stray cat.

[–] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I get a real sense this is exactly the kind of guy that is abusive to animals. Cat is better off feral.

Vice president doesnt give a shit about anything but himself

[–] darkmogool@feddit.org 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He doesn't even care about the couches. A La-Z-Boy floor model told me he's a very selfish lover.

[–] ALLGLORYTOHYPNOTOAD@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

He doesn’t give a shit about anything but his daddy, Peter Thiel.

[–] FerretyFever0@fedia.io 17 points 2 days ago

What a polite couchfucking hillbilly.

The only real accomplishment he'll get is non-US-controlled war crime trials for US military personell. Perhaps even politicians.

According to the Geneva conventions (which the US is a party to), the prospective war criminal's state basically gets first dibs to prosecute their own war criminals. What this means is they can be game the system and be incredibly lenient - they just need to keep the appearance of impartiality.

A real alternative is another party stepping up. Historically that was the other side of the war, but today most likely an international org.

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

He needs impeaching first.

[–] WhatGodIsMadeOf@feddit.org 13 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Karma comes for people like him.

[–] rafoix@lemmy.zip 17 points 2 days ago

No it doesn’t.

When the next political party takes over the US there will be a “it’s time to move on” and let all these criminals get away with everything.

Yeah Kissinger lived a long life of luxury after his policies wrecked millions of lives and cause countless deaths.

People who believe in karma are just huffing copium to ignore the fact that largely these people get away with it.

Did they forget that Dubya Bush is now looked at as a cute old man giving Michelle Obama candy because Barack Obama was too much of a pussy to take Bush and his administration to task for their large number of war crimes?

Karma my ass.

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago

To be fair the Obama admin also committed war crimes, as has every administration in modern history. America has so, so much blood on its hands.

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 11 points 2 days ago

I don't give a shit.

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

Can’t unfuck that couch Vance. We don’t give a shit what you think about it.

[–] renrenPDX@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

[–] don@lemmy.ca 8 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

I don’t give a fuck what you don’t give a shit about, small man, shut your fucking cock holster.

[–] thatradomguy@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

I wonder if the UN will call out the US seeing as how they only seem to be all bark and no bite when it comes to Israel.

[–] ceenote@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

Following the law is for you peasants, not for him.
