Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio) acknowledged — but did not condemn — white supremacist attacks aimed at his wife, Usha Vance, over her Indian descent on Friday.
“Look, I love my wife so much. I love her because she’s who she is,” former President Donald Trump’s running mate told Megyn Kelly on her SiriusXM show.
He continued, “Obviously, she’s not a white person and we’ve been accused — attacked by some white supremacists over that. But I just, I love Usha. She’s such a good mom, she’s such a brilliant lawyer and I’m so proud of her.”
Trump’s vice presidential pick, who has faced backlash for going after “childless” Democrats in 2021 with a comment he recently called “sarcastic,” added that his wife’s experience has helped give him the perspective that it’s “very hard” for working families in America.
No, we can’t. And it’s because voters are so goddamn stupid. Left, right, center, it’s a plague of stupidity.
If hating on Vance for a stupid meme instead of the fact that he’s a fucking ethno fascist saves our democracy, fine. Better than the alternative. At least Democrats invest in public schooling.
