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.
What’s Vance’s favorite part of a Simpsons episode?
I’m not sure here… Are you implying that the couch doesn’t consent or that the couch is kinky?
Man, to be that into the whole “If I just act whiter, I’ll be accepted” that she must go through in her head every, single, day of her life just to be white adjacent is just mind blowing to me.
She’s so emotionally damaged from believing in the whole model minority myth that she’s okay with being shit on by her husband and his party every single day of her life just makes me so utterly sad that she’s so broken that way.
and up until recently she hated trump https://www.thedailybeast.com/usha-vance-was-appalled-by-jan-6-and-trump-friends-spill
Until recently HE hated trump, so no surprise here.
The dude had a Hindu wedding ceremony and is mostly vegetarian at home. He doesn’t strike me as particularly bigoted against his wife. If she’s got an inferiority complex, it likely comes from comparing herself to upholstery.
She seems to be intelligent and well adjusted.
It’s possible she dismisses her husbands behaviour as theatre, which is very likely what it is.
I’m not defending him mind you, I just don’t think she’s a hapless fool.
Not if Flipper is on.
“We’ve been accused,…”
I wonder what he was about to say before he corrected himself here?
My guess would be something like ‘of being a race traitor’ based on the language I’ve heard that crowd use previously.
See, he can’t actually go after these attacks for being the racist epithets that they are, because that would offend the Republican base. He’s got to thread that needle of “defending his wife” and “still being racist.”
This guy is really banking on the fact that cult45 is incredibly stupid. He’s said a bunch of shit the cult won’t appreciate. It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out.
attacked by some white supremacists over that
That sort of implies that there are other white supremacists he doesn’t have a problem with, right?
There is some variability to white supremacists. My cousins (lifelong Floridians, naturally) are white supremacists despite being half-Thai. They probably don’t have any problem with Usha - for them, white supremacy is about hating people of African descent specifically.
and he said like her skin color was an affliction that they would cure if they were able to
and talked about her like a male porn performer talks to a female performer “He is so proud of her and her performance.”
That’s too respectful for porn
It’s telling that he jumped to defend how much he loves her, and in a way that seemed to be saying “It’s okay, she’s one of the GOOD ones!”, rather than condemning or decrying the racist, hateful acts themselves.
Telling, but not surprising
added that his wife’s experience has helped give him the perspective that it’s “very hard” for working families in America.
She’s a lawyer who went to Yale. Her father was a mechanical engineer and her mother was a molecular biologist. They are a working family, but not the type of working family that should give you a new perspective on how hard it is for working families in America. This is the opposite of a working family that struggles for financial security.
Yes, but they have to keep associating “person of color” with “poor” and therefore “crime”. If they don’t keep lumping all non-white people in with other “undesirable” things, some of their followers might look around and realize that non-white people can achieve things on their own too, and that makes non-white folks start to resemble actual human beings a bit too much for their liking. If she was single, he wouldn’t be lauding any of her achievements. The unspoken belief is that women are as incapable as non-whites when there’s no husband involved. The dehumanizing and belittling narrative has to be constant with them or some of their followers might start thinking for themselves.
We interrupt this thread to point out that Peter Thiel is an Enormous Bag of Shit
If he can find difficulty in his upper-class life, why did he join the party that wants to crush people orders of magnitude poorer than him?
Answer: He’s a malicious sociopath and in it entirely for his own enrichment.
Especially for someone whose whole identity is based on growing up as a good ol’ Appalachian boy, it’s pretty weird to say he’s learned much of anything about the struggles of working families from his wife’s experiences. Unless --gasp-- perhaps he’s exaggerated the experiences of his childhood?
Mechanical engineer is surely some good money. But from experience there’s a big spectrum of pay depending on what her mother specifically did as a molecular biologist. Sounds really intense but biology pays pretty shit sometimes haha. I know molecular biologists with PhDs working for 16 an hour at a nonprofit near me.
Her father was a mechanical engineer and her mother was a molecular biologist.
what, like howard and bernadette?!
LOL the article mentions nick fuentes, whose name i’ve seen, but don’t know much about, so i looked him up. my favorite:
He has described himself as the “straightest guy” and attempted to defend himself as an incel by claiming that “the only really straight heterosexual position is to be an asexual incel”, as “having sex with women is gay … What’s gayer than being like, ‘I need cuddles. I need kisses … I need to spend time with a woman.’”[30][31][32]
LOL what the chicken fried fuck
It’s cult-like conditioning perhaps? You can’t control people like mindless drones if they care about others. So yeah, I get why some types of orgs would prefer asexual incels, and why they’d try to make it seem like some desirable, or “alpha” position. What a bunch of losers
That type of cult would be self-limiting though wouldn’t it?
It’s working out so far in practice, see for example https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-01-30/what-is-opus-dei-secretive-catholic-church-group-prelature/101905802
JESUS CHRIST
Imagine deliberately refusing cuddles
i’d guess he’s been deprived of it his entire life, so he inwardly turned it into a “bad” thing to make it make sense to himself. he’ll say EEEeEeEEeWWwwWwW when he sees a couple holding hands while actually wishing someone would even touch him
Oh Yeah definitely. I’m aware that incels are mostly the way they are because they need to cope.
That’s how you get cooties ewh
Dude, you fuck girls? Gay
Reminds me of this Steve Huges joke
Even funnier, he thought he ended his stream and then jorked it to gay furry porn.
This can’t be true…
VERY NSFW WARNING
Looks like it wasn’t gay furry porn, but just gay porn.
Ok, this looks like it could be a hack but in the comments they mention he was caught with trans porn on his phone… And I reached the limit of my curiosity.
He also went on a date with a cat boy. Not that that’s a bad thing, it’s just what he preaches hate against. Rules for thee, but not for me, and all.
fellas, is it gay to have sex with a woman?
it’s a classic.
Also, worth adding, a literal neo-nazi. Also, was part of the InfoWars meeting with Kanye when he said that we shouldn’t be dissing on Hitler all the time.
So yeah, he’s a piece of shit. And that’s the nicest thing you can say about him.
4 Chan jokes personified.
Bro I’m so straight I won’t even touch a door nob that a woman touched. Because a man has had his dick on her hand duh. Ain’t no queer
it’s weird how infrequently i say “no way someone’s that fucking dumb” these days. because i always end up being wrong. i wouldn’t be shocked in the slightest if i learned he refuses to sit on a public shitter for fear that he’s potentially touching asses with a gay man
As someone who grew up in the South and moved to an educated coastal city, I’d just like to take this moment to say I fucking told you! None of you assholes believed me, you thought I was exaggerating! No, they are literally so goddamn stupid their very sentience is in question.
Isn’t that why they put those paper things above the toilets? To make sure you don’t have to touch assess with shit for brains incels?
i’m sure he thinks toilet seat covers are gay too. i mean if straight fucking is gay, then doesn’t that make pretty much everything gay?
What an unfortunate life that man lives.
poor woman
Nah. She knew what she married. Big Melania energy
I had to make sure there was a photo of them in the same room
It’s not weird if you agree with the premise in general just not her in specific.
JD Vance is a bitchass cunt and won’t defend anyone because of that fact.
Did you really say "removed"ass? Because if you did not, I do not understand the censorship filter on here. If you did, it’s funny.
You’re in .Ml, that instance has nanny mods. I’d recommend switching to a better one.
Thank you, I think I’ll have to. I wish it was a setting I could choose to turn off, like nsfw photo blurring.
Even if it was, you’ll get banned eventually for saying something critical of China, or Russia, or whatever other dictatorship they’re in love with at the time
The entire instance is a joke, come to lem.ee
Must be your filter. This is what I see.
That is a beautiful image and I like colorful language, I’m not offended by it. I wish I had known beforehand. Changing will be a pain I’ve been getting a curation I like here, but the censoring is getting annoying.
I had to do the same a while ago too. This helped. https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim/releases
Thank you!
They said b*tchass, you’re on the .ml instance so b*tch gets censored for sexism or whatever.
Thank you for your response. It’s weird the words that get censored for me so it’s been throwing me off
Poor doggies.
