Do the chicken Vance: Donald claims he wants to debate Harris but they are "too rigged and unfair"

George Herbert Walker 'King' Chicken, or simply just King Chicken, is a recurring antagonist of Duckman: Private Dick/Family Man. He is Duckman's long-standing arch-nemesis, who spends his days formulating excessive plans to overthrow the Earth and kill Duckman in the process

Buck, buck, buck. The radical rejection of empathy itself. Is tonight’s VP debate also “rigged and unfair”. And does the ‘vibe’ slap?

What a coward. https://t.co/pbsbymF2XO

Vance says most of American life and culture should be "ripped out like a tumor" and we need to "install political religion." And cites Curtis Yarvin, who's said "if Americans want to change their government, they're going to have to get over their dictator phobia."

Who is the REAL J.D.Vance? I don’t know, and you don’t either—but he’s too extreme and radical to be a heartbeat away from the presidency.

NEW: DNC trolls Trump, Vance with digital projections on NYC's Trump Tower ahead of debate: "Vance on Trump: 'What an idiot'" + "Trump is a chicken!"https://t.co/XUKaRuAvk6 via @CBSPolitics

Vance, however, tells “jokes,” where the humor’s only purpose is to camouflage the bitterness beneath. (He tried to explain his infamous dismissal of “childless cat ladies” as a “sarcastic remark” blown out of proportion by a biased press.) And even with his intended audience, his attempted quips land with a splat. At minimum, cracking a successful joke relies on an ability to read the room, a skill that’s as important for a politician on the campaign trail as it is for a comedian on open-mic night. And though Vance’s journey from rural poverty to Silicon Valley to the halls of Congress ought to make him an adept code-switcher—a scene in the movie version of his memoir Hillbilly Elegy finds him studying the right way to say the word syrup—it seems as if he’s spent so much time in the hermetically sealed world of D.C. think tanks and right-wing podcasts that he’s lost the ability to hear how he sounds to people outside it. How can you put yourself in an audience’s shoes when your politics is rooted in a radical rejection of empathy itself?

By now, all of JD Vance's self-made controversies may feel like a chaotic blur. @JulianneMcShane recalls the many falsehoods, extreme stances, flip-flops, and more ahead of tonight's vice presidential debate. https://t.co/kBChHfAH1U

This unique form of misogynoir should be directly connected, in terms of ideology and rhetoric, to the lies JD Vance and others have told about Haitians eating pets. They are trying to invoke stereotypes about voodooism. To tie "subhumanness" to the supernatural. https://t.co/1ApEFW2AJD

These white Christian nationalists forming Trump & Vance's agenda need to be taken very, very seriously. They are moving beyond "mere racism" to something even more dreadful. To language & ideas we know, historically, have preceded pogroms & genocide.
