DNC Attendee's NSFW Jab at Vance Goes Viral During Live Coverage
A Democratic National Convention attendee made headlines on Thursday after a brazen stunt aimed at Republican Senator J.D. Vance during MSNBC's live coverage of the event.
During Katy Tur's 3 pm show, *Katy Tur Reports*, a DNC attendee positioned a phone behind Tur's interview subject, displaying a clear message: "JD VANCE F--KS COUCHES." While MSNBC did not acknowledge the incident on air, it quickly caught the attention of viewers and social media users.
One commenter on X, formerly known as Twitter, quipped, "Someone get him an iPad!" Another observer suggested, "I think Katy could read that on the HD monitor, she starts a hidden grin."
The incident follows a previous, somewhat related, event. The day before, a couch bearing a "Property of J.D. Vance" sign was spotted in video footage of a "Hotties for Harris" after-party at the DNC. Claudia Conway, daughter of former Trump spokesperson Kellyanne Conway, shared a photograph on X of herself seemingly taken aback by the scene.
Vance's day began with a campaign stop at a Georgia donut shop, where he introduced himself to an employee with the greeting, "I'm J.D. Vance, I'm running for vice president, good to see you." The employee's laconic response, "Okay," prompted further online criticism of Vance, with one commenter writing on X, "Put the man in any actual real world situation and he turns into the most painfully weird dork. Worse than even DeSantis."
These incidents, while seemingly unconnected, have contributed to a narrative surrounding Vance that paints him as an awkward and out-of-touch figure. The public display of dissent at the DNC, coupled with the "Property of J.D. Vance" couch incident, suggests a degree of public disapproval towards the candidate and his campaign.
