Summary
JD Vance defended Marko Elez, a 25-year-old Musk aide after racist posts surfaced, including “Normalize Indian hate.”
Elez resigned but was reinstated following Vance’s support, despite Vance’s wife being of Indian descent. Vance dismissed criticism, arguing past social media posts shouldn’t ruin careers.
Musk backed Elez after a public poll. Rep. Ro Khanna challenged Vance, who responded dismissively, sparking backlash.
The incident has intensified scrutiny of Musk’s hiring practices and Vance’s stance on racism.
She likely doesn’t feel offended. She probably thinks she’s better than every other Indian. Self hating Asian women are very common in the West.
