Why JD Vance is being trolled for his 17-word Mother's Day wish

Vice President JD Vance put out an innocuous post wishing all the mothers on May 11, Mother's Day but The List read between the lines and interpreted the message as a cold shoulder to Second Lady Usha Vance . "Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there. We love you and are grateful for you!" JD wrote in a succinct post. The fact that he did not mention Usha Vance, the mother of his three children, resulted in a meltdown for 'The List' which said JD Vance sent "divorce rumors into overdrive" after giving Usha "the cold shoulder on Mother's Day".

The report ripping JD Vance's Mother's Day post scanned the other posts that the Vice President made on the day and concluded that JD Vance was busy praising his boss, Donald Trump. "Boss is on fire today," JD Vance posted after Donald Trump announced that he would cut the process of prescription drugs.

Some social media users questioned his complicated relationship with his mother Bev who fought addiction when Vance was a child. in his bestselling memoir Hillbilly Elegy, Vance recounted his childhood trauma that involved his parents divorce and when his mother was arrested.n

Vance was raised by his grandparents Bonnie and Jim Vance whom he calls Mamaw and Papaw. JD took his grandparents' surname as his mother went on to marry several times -- five times in total.

This is the same surname that Indian-origin Usha also took after marrying JD. They met at Yale Law School and though Usha and JD speak highly of each other, many people who believe JD to be a misogynist -- because of his 'childless cat ladies' remark which he used in the past to describe Democrats -- think that their marriage is on the rocks. Usha Vance was a registered member of the Democratic Party until about a decade ago. And she counts among her legal roles a job as a corporate litigator at prestigious firm Munger, Tolles & Olson in San Francisco – a firm that describes itself as "radically progressive".
