“I noticed a really nice couch in your reception area. Is that for… everybody?”
*Vice President
This is too flattering to Vance than is deserved
Does anyone have a video of this creepy interaction?
Here it is, but it’s worse than you think.

Ok, that’s way worse than I thought it was going to be. “I’m JD Vance and I’m running for Vice President”… Uhhh, ok…
Who says that shit. Seriously.
“Oh yeah, you’re that couch fucker guy!”
How long have you been on lemmy?
OK. Good.
Left reddit when they took away the API.
Ok good.
That part actually seemed relatively human. It was the follow up questions “how long have you worked here” that just seemed a bit uncanny
It didn’t sound human. It came across like, " do you know who I am" vibes or just an odd unsolicited statement.
The 2nd part about how long this place has been open sounded like he was trying to buy the place.
I would say he acted exactly like how a fish out of water would react in that initial situation, which I can forgive him for, but his recovery had him flopping towards the beach instead of the sea
“Some glazed, some sprinkles, whatever makes sense.”
How long have you worked here, employee?
How long have you worked here, other employee?
Hi, I’m JD Vance, how long have you worked here?

Kinda awkward too. Seth Meyers did a bit where he went with Joe Biden to get ice cream. He asked the employees if they liked ice cream. It’s kinda a silly question because they just work there.
It’s just a really bad idea to go into a place with no advance notice with a bunch of cameras. These aren’t actors, they just work at a donut shop, what do you expect to happen? The woman immediately saying “I don’t want to be on TV” makes a lot of sense. She’s just working a shift, hasn’t had a chance to put on some makeup and make herself look nice for the cameras. It’s just ambushing regular people and expecting it to come out good. Dumb move all around.
“Ok, good.”
I’m kinda socially awkward, and this is what my dialogue skills were like five or six years ago, but someone running for vice president should maybe, idk, take a single decent public speaking class?
TLDR: L rizz
Hi, I’m JD Vance. How long have I worked here?
