Dems hitting Vance with debunked vulgar claim 'undermine' their anti-Trump credibility, strategist says
Fox News
Democrats have continued to jokingly allude to a rumor about former President Trump's running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, despite the story being debunked.
Epstein’s comment comes as Democrats show no signs of ditching the Vance "couch meme," a vulgar rumor that originated on social media last month that Trump’s running mate described a sex act he performed on a couch in his 2016 memoir, "Hillbilly Elegy." "More than anything else, Democrats want to memory-hole the Biden/Harris record of the last four years. They want to memory-hole Harris’ fringe left views from just five years ago." Michael Lee is a writer for Fox News. Prior to joining Fox News, Michael worked for the Washington Examiner, Bongino.com, and Unbiased America. He has covered politics for more than eight years.
Despite the claim being quickly debunked, its viral spread was picked up by Democrats and spawned jokes and memes across social media.
