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.

    Must be nice not having a foreign invader taking your kids away from you huh?

    Must be nice not having your kids separated from you and put into cages huh?

    You don’t get to be a morally bankrupt Putin puppet and then appeal to actual morals.

    Sucks to suck, maybe you should think about consequences before becoming a nazi.
    Oh and he even pulled out the “use my daughter as sympathy bait” card. Classic snowflake!

    If I was this guy I would have moved my family like they were in witness protection. The chance of them being collateral damage is just too high.

    Though he referred to walking his daughter like walking a dog. So he probably doesn’t care much.

    Children do not make you immune from criticism. If you’re afraid of your child hearing that you’re a collossal piece of shit, leave it at home or get out of politics.

    Or stop being a huge piece of shit.

      I need to use this on my neighbor. Any time she gets called out on being a piece of shit, she uses her children as a defense and accuses the neighbor who called her out of hating children.

      “Today while walking my 3 year old daughter”

      Was that a typo? Or does “JD” “Vance” talk about walking his daughter like he would talk about his dog?

    I don’t think you should get a job in public service if you don’t want to deal with members of the public.

      public service

      Republicans have t thought of government officials like that for decades, they view the politicians they vote for as their boss.

      Someone who tells them what to do/think, and they align their values to trump

      Neoliberals have spent 30 years trying to get Dems to think the same way, where instead of a politician working for their voters and then being accountable to them, they want voters to work for them and never question their stances. They want us to be like Republicans and take the stances of our politicians instead.

      The thing is there are very real and very noticable differences in the brains between conservatives and liberals, what works on Republican voters just won’t win enough liberal voters for that strategy to work.

      The only reason it worked in 2020 was people gave Biden the benefit of the doubt.

      But lots of Dem voters never got over Biden saying that anyone who thought he could accomplish anything with simple House and Senate majorities were ignorant of American politics. After the reason we got the 50/50 split was the entire nation donating in the runoffs so we could get it.

      So while I agree, its important to point out neither side has been nominating politicians who view themselves as public servants for a very very long time.

    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?

    Vance is a verified unabashed fucking liar.

    Where’s the proof this happened? Where was his secret service detail?

    Remember his fabricated story about Haitians in Ohio? I call Bullshit 💩

      Pretty sure you can see his security detail in the video. Most of the people seem to be elderly, shuffling around and you hear someone off-camera asking questions.

      He’s a fucking baby. If any of these grandmas suddenly had a notion of doing something violent, I’m sure “JD” “Vance” would have been just fine…

      No, he really does not, not in any way. Or if he does, he doesn’t care. He’s a soulless, power-mad sociopath, with no more human feeling than a cockroach has.

      You can see the video. It seems like an extremely mild bunch of people asking him questions he was uncomfortable about.

      He’s just whining. I’m remembering how the qons were acting like it was 9/11 2.0 when Huckabee was…checks notes…denied a fucking cheese plate at a restaurant that didn’t want to be seen endorsing these monsters.

      I also remember something in the first little d term where some con was joined on the sidewalk, and people around him walked along with him, asking questions he didn’t like. He acted like he was this close to be abducted by terrorists. I can’t remember if that was Tucker or what, but it was some right wing douche clutching their pearls over a big fucking nothing.
