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.

    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.

    Despite my… unpopular view on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

    I’d like to say that this is nonsense. His street was closed off with massive police presence yet he deliberately took his kid to confront the protesters when he had many other options.

    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!

    Oh boohoo - somebody maybe said mean things to him while he was using his daughter as a human shield (or maybe they didn’t and he’s lying).

    And meanwhile, parents in Ukraine are digging their children’s corpses out from under rubble.

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

    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’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.

    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?
