'JD, cut the crap': Vance slammed for 'publicly mocking Brown people' despite marrying one

Source: Raw Story

October 25, 2025 10:32PM ET


Vice President JD Vance Saturday was called out for "publicly mocking other Brown people" despite "being married to a Brown woman and having mixed-race kids."

It started with a video of New York's Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani saying, “My aunt stopped taking the subway after 9/11 because she did not feel safe in her hijab.”

Misrepresenting what was said, Vance shared that video and added, "According to Zohran the real victim of 9/11 was his auntie who got some (allegedly) bad looks." The internet wasn't happy.

Emmy winner Danny Deraney chimed in, "You will never know what ridicule and profiling people went through." "Thousands of people had to put American flag stickers on their car just to prove they are American," he further added. "And that is after my cousin Bobby was killed. How you guys claim to be Christian is beyond me. Try being kind."

Imagine being married to a Brown woman and having mixed-race kids and then publicly mocking other Brown people as they talk publicly and emotionally about their experience of racism. Vance is just a bad person.

The church needs to explain what Jesus,s teachings are to him.

our political arguments with these ravening wolves in sheep's clothing religionists and should argue Christianity instead. When the "Prosperity Gospel" becomes as prevalent as it is, Christianity has been hijacked.

I am not Christian but I was as a kid and I loved Jesus completely. Years ago, I emailed Focus on the Family and asked them why they were pushing for prayer in school when Jesus said that his followers should pray in secret and not in public like the hypocrites. They responded by saying that they consider the Sermon on the Mount to be a "minor teaching" and they blocked me.

by saying "I believe Jesus is the Lord" and clicking your heels together 3 times.

They have embraced 'cheap grace'. Easier to just say the magic words than to strive to be a decent human being.

Here's a simple test: Would Vance want to be treated the way he and other right-wingers treat non-white non-Christians? No? Not a Christian. In fact, the whole reactionary response to the civil rights movement is just fear that the tables will be turned on them, because some race has to be on top, and if it isn't "us" then it's "them."

We knew that already, but kudos to those who publicly call him out on it when he reveals his (lack of) character.

I think she likes being close to power. The reality is she’ll never be accepted by the real GOP base, just like Vivek and Kash. They both got trashed recently by the Kirk army, because they’re brown “demon worshippers”,

No sympathy whatever for them though.

It's all about JD Vance all the time. Even his wife and kids are simply speed bumps along the way. He'd dump them in a heart beat if it gave him an advantage.

Pence is cut from the same cloth. Jan 6 nuts literally wanted to hang him and endangered his family, yet he was oh so slow to say ANYTHING negative about Trump. Where the hell do these people come from?

...for a brown person.

The retort would've read:

Imagine attending Charlie Kirk's funeral and then coming out in support of Brown people as they talk publicly and emotionally about their experience of racism. Vance must not be serious about MAGA.

Like Obama, Vance's children are mixed race and Republicans do not consider Obama to be white.
Vance apologized to his right wingers that his wife is not white.
Obviously, to republicans, they do not qualify for white Christian nationalism.
---------------------------------------
When Trump says his disgusting comments about immigrants 'poisoning the blood of our country', does he mean Vance's family?

Does Vance support this right wing trash?

I wouldn't put it past him.

If they looked like a political liability, he'd replace them in a heartbeat.
