Summary
JD Vance claimed pro-Ukraine protesters harassed him and his daughter in Cincinnati, but demonstrators say they merely passed him en route to a protest.
Video shows a civil exchange where Vance defended U.S. withdrawal from Ukraine aid, contradicting Trump’s stance on Russia’s invasion.
Critics accused Vance of using his child to deflect backlash over his role in a heated Oval Office meeting with Zelensky.
Protests against his Ukraine policy continue as Russia escalates attacks, with demonstrations held in Washington, D.C., and Europe.
Serious question: when does he start having a decoy child lookalike so he can always have a child with him 24/7 so he can continually say he’s being harassed with his daughter.
Glad someone’s confronting republicans on Ukraine. No one we elected will.
he is such a try hard. What a douchy loser.
Vance, in tears, asked his daughter if they could go home to mommy where there weren’t any scary people asking why he is Putin’s bitch
We need more Luigis.

Oh wait this is Lemmy not Reddit. My bad
Man, there’s going to be so many feds on this platform soon. Mark my words.
If there aren’t feds watching fediverse/lemmy already, somebody is not doing their job.

The consensus is that the next Luigi has to be a white heterosexual man and a veteran or active military, hopefully even conservative
Sucks to suck
The kid should know that daddy is making other little boys and girls die because he can’t steal from their country.
Using your child as a shield for bad policy decisions? That’s a new low, JD.
🐱
But not using them as a literal shield yet, so he needs to work harder.
He still doesn’t want to stoop to musk’s level there
So Vance just so happened to be “walking his daughter” near a group of Ukrainian protestors? The secret service didn’t have the capability to look down the street he wanted to walk down and say “maybe we should take another route”?
Or did he purposely take his young daughter near a polite-looking group of protestors just so he could have a low-risk confrontation as fuel to demonize his detractors online?
I hope to God she was wearing a leash for everyone’s safety.
I hope it was attached to someone more competent than her father. Like a roomba.
I’d prefer his version of events, honestly. Why do these fuckers ever get a moment of peace? Life should be made as difficult as possible for them, for every facet that we still have control over.
Much better than families and their toddlers being faced with pro Russian missiles.
Cry me a river you petulant fuck.
This is the price of being a politician and being a complete P.O.S. one at that.
Aw poor baby. You cannot convince me that this chubby man child doesn’t wear eyeliner
I’m confronted by this fucker’s stupid fucking face every goddamn day
Deal with it you fucking child
JD joins the Elon club of using his children as human shields.
