Usha Vance says Supreme Court, federal judges should be treated with 'respect' [View all]

Second lady Usha Vance said the Supreme Court and federal judges should be treated with "respect" amid attacks and criticism they have endured from across the political spectrum.

The second lady also shared her thoughts about her husband Vice President JD Vance's political future and the biggest surprise she learned about President Donald Trump.

Usha Vance, an attorney who clerked for Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Brett Kavanaugh on the District of Columbia Court of Appeals, made the comments in an exclusive interview with ABC News Live Prime anchor Linsey Davis.

"We talked about some of the political violence and the rhetoric kind of reaching a fever pitch," Davis said. "Of course, the Supreme Court has also been attacked. You've clerked for two justices who are now both on the Supreme Court. One of your former bosses, Chief Justice John Roberts, called personal criticism of judges dangerous and said that some attacks have gone too far. Do you agree?"

We'll show them as much respect as they show us.
