An image of JD Vance allegedly dressed as a woman and wearing a blonde wig was posted to X, formerly known as Twitter, on Sunday. The unconfirmed image quickly picked up steam and began trending under the hashtag #SofaLoren, a reference to the iconic Italian actress Sophia Loren and false claims that the Republican senator had sex with a couch.

Many commenters online connected Vanceās alleged history of cross-dressing with his legislative historyāwhich has long been a point ofĀ concernĀ for LGBTQ+ advocacy groups.
The Ohio senator introduced the āProtect Childrenās Innocence Act,ā whichĀ aims to criminalizeĀ medical institutions that provide gender-affirming care to minors.
The Republican vice presidential pick also supports measures to limit classroom discussion of sexual orientation and gender identity, and labeled critics of so-called ādonāt say gayā legislationĀ āgroomers.ā
So is you point that pointing out hypocrisy isnāt enough?
I would disagree in part, but that would make way more sense if thatās what youāve been trying to say.
I think the hypocrisy isnāt what matters so much as all the other stuff Iāve explained. People are missing what makes this distinct and why it matters. Iāve explained my stance pretty thoroughly at this point.
