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.

    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.

        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
