Everywhere you look on social media, it seems like there’s another Vance/couch meme and, unless you’re extremely online, it’s probably all very confusing. That got even more complicated when the Associated Presstried to get to the bottom of the story
On July 15, the day Donald Trump announced Vance as his running mate, X/Twitter user @rickrudescalves sent a very explicit tweet insinuating the Ohio senator’s memoir Hillbilly Elegy contains a depiction of Vance having intercourse with a couch. The allegation, however, is fictional. Nowhere in the book does that anecdote appear — and certainly not on the pages mentioned.
Shortly after the tweet, @rickrudescalves replied to himself with an Arthur meme that the terminally online will recognize as shorthand for “Just Go On the Internet and Tell Lies“, a nod to the fabrication in his original post.
