JD Vance , an Ohio Republican , was rolled out as Donald Trump ’s running mate last month .

The move had several seeming aims, including a nod to wealthy backers Peter Thiel and a play for working-class voters.

In a 2021 interview, Vance said the country is being run by “childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they've made”.

Both men have been accused by multiple women of sexual misconduct.

Trump and Tate appear to be aligned on another subject: porn.

The links between Trump , Vance , and figures like Tate and the virulently toxic incel community seem to be strategic.

Trump ’s misogynistic views have bled into other areas of conservative politics, too.

At the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee last month , the speaker list included Dana White , Hulk Hogan , and Rep. Matt Gaetz , who has been investigated but not charged by the Department of Justice for allegations of being part of a scheme to traffic a 17-year-old woman.
