I'm too old to nail it down exactly, but I'm thinking this is his nod to the whole Boogaloo Boi / 'naughty cop' movement. Hyper masculinity. From a decidedly 'masculine diminished' man.
JD is one weird tool. Personally, I'm glad Trump picked him. We need the most egregious examples of his type, to truly revulse the American people.
Clear difference between you and JD.
JD: I'm JD, vice prez candidate!
Woman: ok
George Takei: I'd like a classic, please
Woman: OMG YOU ARE GEORGE TAKEI WHY AREN'T YOU RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT OF THE GALAXY?
@georgetakei What stands out to me is that this man, who is angling to be president one day, walked into a shop, ostensibly to buy snacks for his entourage, with no discernible plan. He doesn't know how many people he's feeding. He doesn't know what that might suggest about how many donuts to get. He goes with the figure that an aide yells at him.
I bet the interns who usually are sent on this kind of errand are expected to take it more seriously.
Sure, you can minimize this -- it's just a photo-op, he's not really concerned about the donuts. True enough. But that means he didn't make any kind of plan for the photo-op, either. I am more serious about my household grocery shopping than Vance is about running a presidential campaign.
βSir please stop talking about how much you miss your couch and just order some goddamn donuts.β
Looking at JD, I'd have thought that a donut was his holey communion host.
@georgetakei
"One donut, please. No hole, no filling. Do I get fries with that?"

Greetings, fellow human. How goes it.
@georgetakei This guy is almost 10 years younger than me and he has the condescending parental figure nonsense down PAT. I always wanted to punch those fuckers but found myself just pretending to listen so they'll feel stroked and go away. Those kids in the shop handled the situation very well.
Did he leave a tip? That's a lot of stress to throw down on someone for no good reason.
