The normal gay guy vote.
“I think that frankly, I wouldn’t be surprised if me and Trump won just the normal gay guy vote.” J.D. Vance, on the Joe Rogan Experience, October 2024
He was right, and we are it. Mortgages, dogs, jobs you’ve never heard of, spread across every state in the country. We never wanted a movement built around us — we wanted to get on with our lives and be left alone to do it. We’re for J.D. Vance in 2028, and we think there are a great many more of us than anyone has bothered to count.
Coverage worth your afternoon.

Three reasons we're not being quiet about it.
We know how this looks to people on both sides of us. We'd rather say it plainly than let anyone else write it for us.
Pride that isn't ironic.
We think this country is worth being unfashionably proud of — its work, its manners, its stubborn habit of getting there late but getting there. That's not a costume we put on for an election.
An argument in the open.
We'd take a real disagreement conducted in public over a consensus enforced in private, every time. Vance argues. We'd rather have that than a candidate who tests everything first.
We're not asking.
We don't agree with him on everything, and we're not going to pretend otherwise to make anyone comfortable. We're here because the case is worth making anyway.
The job, done in daylight.
We're not asking anyone to squint. He travels, he takes the questions, he brings his family, and he answers as himself rather than as a memo. You can disagree with the man and still notice that much.
What people actually like about the man.
Not the caricature from either direction — the reasons that come up when you ask someone who's for him why they are.
He came from somewhere real.
Middletown, Ohio. Raised in large part by his grandmother. The Marine Corps and a deployment to Iraq before Yale Law. People recognize that sequence because they've lived pieces of it themselves.
He'll take the hard interview.
He sits down with people who don't like him and answers the question that was asked. In a profession where most sentences get tested by a focus group first, that lands as nerve.
He isn't embarrassed by the country.
No apology tour, no wincing at the flag. Plenty of people are tired of being made to feel that affection for this place needs a disclaimer attached.
He talks about his family like he means it.
Not as a campaign prop wheeled out for a photo line. It reads as the actual center of the man, and people can tell the difference.
He enlisted. So did one of us.
Vance enlisted in the Marine Corps in 2003 and served four years as a combat correspondent, including six months in Iraq. One of us went through Parris Island and served in combat in Afghanistan. Neither of them arrived with a commission and a plan; they arrived with a contract. That is a smaller thing than a political platform and a larger thing than a biography, and it is a good part of why we are here.
The list is the movement.
Everything else — chapters, events, showing up somewhere in person — starts with knowing who's out there. Be early.
We started this because we got tired of the two available scripts. One says people like me are supposed to vote a certain way and shouldn't need it explained. The other says I'm a curiosity, or a prop, for being here at all.
Neither of those is an argument. So here's ours, in public, with our names on it: I think J.D. Vance is the most serious person in the field, I think he wins in 2028, and I think there are more of us than anyone has bothered to count.
This site is independent. Nobody pays for it, nobody clears the copy, and nobody in any campaign knew it existed before you did. If that changes, you'll read it here first.
