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.

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.

I could be wrong but I don't think that they are as unhinged as MAGA storming the capitol.

[-] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Guess daddy should watch his mouth a little better then

[-] RebelSquare42@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 months ago

Wow if that’s how upset he is over a potential minor emotional trauma for his child I wonder how he would feel about her living in Ukraine under bombings?

[-] DogPeePoo@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago

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 💩

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

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...

Sucks to suck

[-] newthrowaway20@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Using his own kids as a political prop, of course.

[-] ATDA@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

I really don't need to know how old his couch cushion is tbh...

[-] sloppychops@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 months ago

Boys' night out at the local strip club, he turns up at Ikea wondering where everyone is.

[-] Aliktren@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

No he knows just a little how ukrainian parents feel every day

[-] futatorius@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

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.

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!

[-] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Imagine you and your family being confronted by a Russian conscript who shoots anything that moves.

[-] foggy@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

I hope they were armed to the teeth and you piss your bed from nightmares for the rest of your pathetic life.

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

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.

Aw poor baby. You cannot convince me that this chubby man child doesn’t wear eyeliner

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

not a good enough protest if he can talk about it

[-] HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com 2 points 3 months ago

he is such a try hard. What a douchy loser.

[-] parody@lemmings.world 1 points 3 months ago

Hey does anybody know whose kid is in the stroller and how old they are? Guessing between maybe 2-4 years old, and prob with a father who wasn’t exactly leading his best life as protestors impugned his integrity (not simply debated genuine views), but who knows

https://youtu.be/_FRXD7aG3XU

I’ll watch again and try to use context clues to figure this out… maybe someone mentions the age

[-] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Just Fucking Dumb should think about the 3-year old Ukrainian children dealing with the shit from Russia.

[-] Curmudge_john@lazysoci.al 1 points 3 months ago

"Don't hit him he got kids with him my apologies"

[-] uberdroog@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago
