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.

    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!

    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

    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.

        See the video. All I see are some elderly people shuffling around him asking questions. With what looks like security at the ready…

    As a parent this really hits home. I can remember vividly the time I was harassed, 6-month-old in my arms, when I cut off desperately needed funding. I was literally causing death and misery, all because I thought a ruthless foreign dictator was kind of a cool dude. If we were both threatened and harassed for being massive turd nuggets, where does it end? /s

      It’s like you can’t betray your allies and turn your country into a fascist shithole anymore. Well you can, but then some woke mob will calmly tell you that what you’re doing is bad and I don’t want my children being around that negativity!

    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.

      Wrong. Ukranian parents have to worry about literal bombs falling on them every single day. I cannot suggest what would have to be done to JD Vance and his family for him to feel what Ukranian parents feel every day without getting a visit from the Secret Service myself.

      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.
