Trump's right-hand man allegedly has bizarre sexual practices

The rumor is crazy one which continues to be fueled. It is said that, on the other side of the Atlantic, Donald Trump's running mate, J.D. Vance, had an intimate relationship with... a couch.

On July 15, a user of X (formerly Twitter), posted the following: the senator "could be the first choice of vice president to admit in a bestseller to having 'slept' with a glove stuck between a couch's two cushions". Since then, the Internet user's account has been locked. He claims that this information comes from an excerpt from J.D. Vance's autobiographical novel, "Hillbilly Elegy", a novel that made him famous. This is where it all begins. It didn't take more for social media networks to get carried away and transform this story into viral posts.

An example among many others:"I don't think we should have a couch fu.ck.er as vice president. Or is it just me. Sorry JD."

This is a rumor that, as you may have guessed, is completely false, reports the French media outlet La Dépêche. If we take the quoted passage from his book as a reference, the excerpt would have no connection with anything of the kind. The 39-year-old senator actually talks about his arrival at the University of Ohio and one of his first meals at a Chipotle.
