Extremist figures and members of the Make America Great Again movement have criticized the wife of Ohio Senator JD Vance after former President Donald Trump named him as his running mate in the 2024 election.

In the wake of Trump's vice presidential announcement on Monday, numerous conservative and far-right figures have taken to social media to launch racist attacks against Usha Vance because of her Indian heritage and the assumption that her influence on her husband's political career means the Republican Party will be softer on immigration.
"I'm sure this guy is going to be great on immigration," Jaden McNeil, a far-right activist and the founder of America First Students, wrote on X, formerly Twitter, while sharing a picture of the Vances with their newborn baby.
Nick Fuentes, a white supremacist who visited Trump at his Mar-a-Lago home along with rapper Kanye West in November 2022, suggested that Vance would not be a "defender of white identity" because of his wife's Indian heritage.
"Who is this guy, really?" Fuentes said on his podcast. "Do we really expect that the guy who has an Indian wife and named their kid Vivek is going to support white identity?"
Vincent James Foxx, who was present at the January 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, wrote on X: "JD Vance gets tapped as VP and immediately there's a Hindu prayer at the RNC. Next we'll see Sen. Mike Lee and JD Vance team up to convince Trump to let in 10 million Indian immigrants. Green cards on diplomas!"
Conservative commentator Stew Peters wrote, "There is an obvious Indian coup taking place in the US right before our eyes," while sharing a screenshot of an article about the Vances' three children.

They are named and quoted in the article.
But no matter, they’ll be driven from the party and the movement. They’re poisoned history.
This coming from Newsweek, therefor it’s gotta be true.../s
yes but she’a a white woman.
This is either a fabrication or whoever said or did this stuff is a false-flag agent provocateur like whats-his-name the CIA/FBI asset at J6 who was egging everyone on to enter the Capitol.
I do not want an atheist, nor a non-Christian, as leader of our country. JD’s wife is not a leader, though.
Highly doubtful. Typical stirring the sh*t.
Hindus believe there are tens of millions of gods to be worshipped.
Stew Peters is a complete idiot who will pimp any and every conspiracy theory. He would have been banned here just like Alex Jones was banned here.
JD graduated in two years. He is a very smart fellow and an excellent writer.
Clarence Thomas was Yale law, Scalia was Rutgers and Columbia.
Some people went to just study law.
The author’s bio..

Another interesting UK tie-in...
Hindu religion is not an organized religion. It is more philosophy than dogma. Hindu’s do not attend temple every Sunday. Hindu’s believe in re-incarnatoon. Your next life will depend on how many good or bad deeds you performed in current life. Bad deeds will result in a miserable next life. Repenting bad deeds does not nullify them. You must pay for all your bad deeds. Which is why I have stayed away from doing anything bad. Hindu religion is tolerant of all other religions. Swami Vivekananda said, like all rivers reach the ocean, prayers from all religions reach Gods in heaven.
Oh bullshit
Nick Fuentes is NOT “MAGA.”
I have no question but that Fuentes is paid to make our side look bad. He is despicable.
A key is first whether they are not proselytizing. Religion is a personal matter. Keep it to yourself.
More important, whether they base it on religion or elsewhere, what are their moral values, their ethics, their practice of right and wrong?
Stew Peters is a complete lunatic. Not "conservative" in any way, and posting in support of Hamas for months.
I have no problem with having anyone of any religion or no religion in the White House. I just want a competent president who can protect this United States.
I don’t believe a Satanist would be a competent president. Nor a religious extremist of ANY religion. They would turn their beliefs into totalitarianism if they could. Someone tolerant of others would be my choice.
Trump is religious, which is fine. He’s also tolerant, which is perfect.
You have a complete right to your own opinion. I’m fine with disagreeing with you. That’s America, to me.
It’s useless to try to correct these people. They can spin lies faster than you can correct them. Point out the lie and move on.
Ah, but that whole line of thinking IS racist. That is, in my opinion, wrong. I remember in my youth dealing with racist dad, I made clear that if I ever brought a woman home for him to meet, she'd be black, Mexican, Chinese, or something other than white just to spite his racist BS. Over the years, when I was singled I probably checked off ever race box for women I dated, it wasn't a concern by itself.
