Usha Vance, 38, addressed an overwhelmingly White crowd on the convention floor that tittered uneasily as she joked about her husband learning to cook Indian food and audibly gasped when she mentioned her vegetarian diet.
In case anyone didn't remember what color most snowflakes are 🤦😂
Hindutva love Trump's Republican party, right until they deport them for not being Christian. They've got a similar relationship there as zionists do.
I'm actually rather surprised the evangelicals aren't revolting over a Catholic/Hindu couple being on the ticket.

Me too, but at the same time I'm not. I guess their inherently blasphemous worship of Trump is stronger than their bigotry.
Which is kinda ironic since his bigotry (and thus him validating their own) is one of the main reasons why these idiots consider him the savior of (white, Christian) mankind 🤦😄
It’s all good as long as them non whites “know their place”.
So if Vance just talks down about her, then their hierarchy is not threatened. That’s why he said what he did in this post.
JD Vance called him America's Hitler and is on the ticket...
I feel like speaking out against Trump is a great way to get a job for him.
If you're willing to backpedal and support him for money and influence then he knows you are spineless and unprincipled. That means he knows exactly how to control you.
That's actually an old Stalinist tactic. Force your underlings to lie in obvious ways. You know they lied, the public knows they lied, they know the public knows. It's an act of obedience.
It’s almost like they don’t really believe in anything except power…
That's all Repubs. IDK if there was plausible deniability for W, but there certainly was no plausible deniability for Donald. The only people voting Repub are appalling bigots, whether or not they are as self aware as Usha apparently is.
Typical republican swine.
He makes everyone kiss the ring, and the gop is set up such that that's the normal power structure. If the voter base had any self awareness they'd see the weakness inherent in the platform
Zero sympathy.
Vance sees kissing Trumps ass as the easiest way to be on the ticket for Fuhrer next election cycle. If Trump wins or loses he won't be in physical/mental shape for the next election and Vance sees sticking his nose intestine deep up Trump's ass and using the next 4 years as his sounding board to say whatever smoothbrained maga wants to get his name out there.
It's his Ace Ventura "put me in coach" moment.
I think this was Pence's play too. He just had a moment of clarity when we saw a glimpse of his future where the word "Pence" replaced "Benedict Arnold" as the default word for "traitor" and didn't want that to be his legacy. As much as I dislike Pence, I respect him for his moment of authenticity to certify the election in the face of fascism .
