    That’s okay, he’s fucking Ericka Kirk now instead. Usha is about to be cast aside.

    Wouldn’t that be something to discuss, you know, before marriage?

      The sombrero is every bit as mesmerizing as it is mystifying.

      The fact that the sombrero is incorporated makes this 1000x funnier. I laugh nearly every time I see it even though I’ve seen it probably dozens of times now.

    Sometimes, I think Vance plays up the anti-immigrant rhetoric because he wants to piss off his wife so he can be cast out to sleep with on the couch.

    We really need to loosen up with the “phobic” term. It muddies the water of what’s happening in these situations.

    Saying the dumb shit he said in no way indicates he has a fear of Hinduism.

    He’s just an asshole that thinks his religion is the correct one.

    Phobias are a serious thing. And using it in this context dilutes the truth of them.

    Vance - who converted to Catholicism in 2019 as he was laying the groundwork for a political career - replied by saying that when he met Usha, “I would consider myself an agnostic or an atheist and that’s what I think she would have considered herself as well.”

    Lolol.

        They thought the Pope would be in charge if a Catholic was in office.

            The gay agenda.

            Omg, this is the gay conspiracy I’ve been hearing all about.

            It’s not the gay agenda I wanted :(
