How old is Usha Vance? This is VP JD Vance’s wife: Family background, career, age, education
Vice President-elect J.D. Vance, and his wife, are prime examples of how quickly opinions can change, when siding with the powerful can improve your own position. Vance, who called Trump a “bad candidate, and frankly a really bad person,” is now standing proudly at his side, and is the presumed inherritor of Trump’s political project, should his legacy fair better than that of former VP Mike Pence.
Usha Vance was a staunch critic of Donald Trump
Another member of the Vance family has been drawn into this ring of power, Vance’s wife, Usha. According to a Washington Post report, Usha Vance privately shared her deep concerns about the Capitol riots with friends. A close confidant, speaking anonymously, revealed that she was “outraged by Trump’s incitement of the deadly riot at the US Capitol and lamented the social breakdown that fueled his political support”.
The same friend stated that Usha was “generally appalled by Trump, from the moment of his first election”.
These reported views stand in stark contrast to her current public stance. At the Republican National Convention, where Donald Trump introduced his running mate J.D. Vance to the country, Usha Vance was seen supporting her husband and the former president. Though she was previously a registered Democrat, she has since aligned with the Republican Party.
