Not all of the far right is happy with Trump's VP pick
Donald Trump announced Ohio Sen. JD Vance as his vice presidential pick on Monday. And while many on the right lauded the choice, not everyone in the land of MAGA is as enthusiastic about Vance—and it’s not because the Ohio senator said Trump was “unfit for our nation’s highest office” and called him “America’s Hitler.” Nope. Some far-right Trump supporters are unhappy about Vance because he’s married to Usha Vance, née Chilukuri. Raised in San Diego, California, Usha is the daughter of Indian immigrants. And according to right-wingers like talk show host and Nazi apologist Stew Peters, that’s an issue. Vance and his wife met at Yale Law School, have been married for 10 years, and have three children. However, Peters seems to believe there is some kind of racial conspiracy afoot in Trump’s pick. Posting images of the Vances, as well as an article reporting that aspiring autocrat Vivek Ramaswamy was open to filling Vance’s Senate seat if Trump wins in November, Peters wrote, “There is an obvious Indian coup taking place in the US right before our eyes.” Former BlazeTV host Jon Miller celebrated Trump’s VP announcement by posting a video of Indian women working and writing, “mrs. j.d vance and the kids scramble to prepare hors d’oeuvres and petit fours for the convention after party at their home on monday night.” The joke here seems to be that Jon Miller is a bigot! Jaden McNeil, who founded a hard-right student group at Kansas State University because the merely far-right Turning Point USA “constantly cedes cultural ground to the Left,” posted an image of the Vances and remarked, “I’m sure this guy is going to be great on immigration.” And white supremacist asshat Nick Fuentes used his web show to explain his trepidation over Vance’s “mixed-up family”: J.D. Vance also has a non-white wife—an Indian wife—and a kid named Vivek. All his kids have Indian names—so it’s like, what exactly are we getting here? And that’s not a dig at him just because I’m a racist or something. But who is this guy really? Do we really expect the guy that has an Indian wife and named their kid Vivek is gonna support “white identity”? … Notably, the fact that Trump’s wife, Melania, is an immigrant herself seems to be just all-white with this crew.
