Greenland visit cancelled after locals refuse to welcome Usha Vance

This is the first time I'm learning about the USA's second lady and I did NOT expect her to be a DEI hire /j
I am having such a hard time squaring that with how he talks and acts; unless he is bideing(bidding?) his time till the orange idiot is gone and is planning on an uno reverso, but it sure doesn't seem that way.

I'm willing to bet they don't understand why because the know "Everybody adores us"
-
I like to think they didn't want to meet the Vances because they were afraid for the safety of their couches.
Very close, but more likely it's an made-up excuse because they realize it's a bit uncertain if border security would let her back into the USA /s

He actually visited Greenland. I just saw it in the news. He just avoided the capital and only visited an army base.
-
clearly they are racists because she's black.
/s
(I know she's not, but when would anything republicans say make sense?)
Clearly they're antisemitic, since there is at least 1 Jewish person in India.
-
So that's where those came from. Though to be fair, she and the PMRC did that before Gore's first term.

Space force base. And not "an" but "the".
Fucking chicken, his staff apparently were too afraid that locals would have pelted him with eggs.

I guess you could say their wives took the jobs American women didn't want to do.
Goddamn zing holy shit

He'd face the same treatment in most American cities, better get used to it.

It's the same as good ol' Mitch. He can hate others and not in one specific case. Being racist doesnt mean you have to be all the time.
What I don't get is how she could marry him. Who signs up or stays with someone who promotes hate for every aspect of yourself?

DEI is just something they're using as a dog whistle. It's always about class first.
She's rich, so he's an honourary white
Though, really shows what an absolute wanker JD Vance is, since under his administration is certainly going to be way worse be to of indian decent in his country.
What a shit husband and father.

Right? How can she wake up and think "This is all okay, I'm good with this." I mean, I have the same question for Melania too, but I assume that was all for money and what not.

Then again you have female Republican voters and minority Republican voters, and farmer Republican voters... all who voted for their own destruction so I guess I shouldn't be too astonished.

Yeah, very true. Just, so sad. And disappointing. Ugh, I hate this timeline.

No one could afford that

The Second Lady had planned to visit the Danish territory this week alongside other senior US government figures in a visit that had been described as a “provocation” by Greenland’s acting head of government Mute Egede.
It was later announced that JD Vance would be joining his wife on the visit, which was set to come after months of the Trump administration voicing their desire to take over the territory.
Usha Vance had been set to spend several days in Greenland on a “cultural visit.”
However, changes were subsequently made to the trip, which the White House confirmed on Tuesday would only involve the Vances visiting the US Pituffik Space Base, on the north-western coast.
Now, Danish broadcaster TV2 has reported that part of Mrs Vance’s visit to the capital of Nuuk was cancelled after US representatives failed to find any locals who wanted to greet the Second Lady.
Seriously though, why would anyone think this was a good idea in the first place? First off, I didn’t even know the “Second Lady” really did anything like this kind of stuff at all, and secondly, why would locals care about someone who is essential a random foreigner coming to pave the way for chaos?
She’s not Princess Diana. Five years ago, her husband was a certified nobody and now they want to drum up flowers and cheers from locals in another country for the wife of someone who is a half-step from being just some random NPC?
Desperate attempt from Vance to appear relevant, with the vain hope that there were enough people in Greenland stupid enough to support their bullshit (or desperate enough to be bribed) that they could lie about how much support they have.

Even more interesting is that her mother (VP Vance's mother-in-law) was instrumental in advancing DEI at the university she works at (UCSD).
I would pay a lot of money to see a journalist ask JD Vance if he approves of his mother-in-law's work in promoting DEI. Just knowing how awkward that next family gathering would be would make it worth it.

Why do we care what Randi's think about their mother in law's? It's not like this Vance guy is important or anything.

We will just use the poop left laying around by all the homeless in need of mental health treatment and a safe place to live.
