Unconventional but highly conservative, Donald Trump‘s pick for US vice-president, Jay D. Vance, who less than a month before the US election, spoke about how his Hindu wife stood by his decision to convert to Catholicism, while not hesitating to sneer at the performance of Kamala Harris in her interview with Fox News.
Vice presidential candidate Trump, feels guilty toward his wife, Ossa Vance, who accompanied him to church every week. In an interview with The New York Times, Vance revealed that his wife, Usa, who grew up in a Hindu family, supported him on his spiritual journey to the Catholic faith and eventually his baptism in 2019.
“I feel awful towards my wife because we go to church almost every Sunday unless we’re overseas,” Vance said, speaking about his family during the interview.
His first steps toward Catholicism came, he said, from thinking about doing “great things” in life as he found in the values of meritocracy a “deep desire and lack.” “I thought Christianity, which I had rejected as a young man, answered the questions about being a virtuous man better than the logic of American meritocracy,” the Ohio Republican congressman said.
The child of Indian immigrants, Usa told the Republican National Convention last July that her husband adapted to a vegetarian diet and even learned how to cook Indian food.
Vance urges Democrats to re-elect Biden
Moreover, in the wake of yesterday’s interview with Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris on the Fox News network, J.D. Vance…trolled her party.
In a post on his personal “X” account, Vance urged Democrats to replace Kamala Harris with Joe Biden again after her poor performance on Fox News.
At the same time, the Republican vice presidential nominee answered “no” when asked if the former president lost the 2020 election. “On the 2020 election, I’ve answered that question directly a million times: No. I think there are serious problems from 2020,” Vance said at a rally in Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
“So did Donald Trump lose the election? Not in the words I would use, okay?” said Vance. “I really don’t care at all whether you agree or disagree with me on this issue,” he continued.
“What the media will do is focus on the court cases or focus on some crazy conspiracy theory. What I know, what I’ve verified happened, is that in 2020, major tech companies censored Americans from talking about things like the Hunter Biden laptop story. And that had big, big consequences in the election,” the Republican vice presidential candidate stressed.
