Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I mean better than "Crusty Cushion" anyway.
I don't care and don't see why I should
Got him
What out, Trump might try to grab him by the ….
Said by the people who proudly wear maxi pads on their ears.
Doesn't have the same impact as Couch-fucker JD, IMO
The heterosectional
That guy who likes to shit on veterans and poor people? You mean that sofa fucking JD Vance?
Shamelessly stolen joke but of course he's Tampon Tim, aren't tampons what you use to help stop a red wave?
They are also good for packing certain types of wounds, because well blood is blood and Khorne cares not where it flows from.
They're more helpful during a school shooting than any of these "student resource officers."
Stick it in a bullet wound and watch it expand
lol ok
This doesn't directly relate, but Iggy Pop once said he doesn't mind to be seen cross dressing because he doesn't consider it to be a negative thing to be a woman. They think Tampon Tim is a slam, because they think being compared to/associated with a woman is demeaning. Take note republican women, they don't respect you.
For a brief moment I thought you'd gotten Iggy Pop and Suzy/Eddie Izzard confused because I cross dressing might involve wearing a shirt, which Iggy pop isn't known for
But sure enough, it was Iggy Pop, him in a dress is probably the closest I've ever seen to him wearing a shirt.
Oh no, he's concerned with women's Reproductive Rights, medical care, and hygiene! What a comprehensive list of the absolute worst qualities a person could have.
k.
Can you imagine Ronald Reagan whipping out incredibly stupid and weird nicknames like that? The man was a terrible president and did real harm to the country, but at least he was able to talk like an actual grown-up.
Seriously, can you imagine him suddenly dropping moronic nicknames for Carter or Mondale? The Republican party circa 1979 would have dumped him immediately and consigned him to the dustbin of history.
And they would have called his antics "weird."
We know. This lame story with no legs has already been posted sixteen times.
he needs to embrace it at the rallies. take it back
Make Harris/Walz tampons and hand them out
Just tell people he’s not the one who walks around in public with a maxi pad on his ear for no reason whatsoever.
I’m willing to bet the students using tampons at those middle/high schools follow the directions.
Tampon Tim will stop the Red Wave \o/
I’m stealing that line.
I didn't come up with it myself, spread the good word lmao
I don't know. That sort of legitimizes it, makes it seem normal that they are bringing it up. It's not, it's weird.
I agree. He should just point out that it's weird for them to attack him over this. Making sure kids have food and menstrual products available to the ones that need them are good things.
Yeah now that you mention it, it does seem kinda weird to nickname your opponent based on a successful piece of legislation. Like the idea that this nickname in particular is a negative thing is so incredibly immature, it’s a bit odd. Maybe try again idk.
I'm voting for Tampon Tim!
They really need to come up with less weird nicknames. It says more about them than it does the people they’re trying to make fun of.

The right wing persists in pursuing the incel vote, I see.
