Does JD Vance wear eyeliner? Social media seems to think so

<p>JD Vance's wife Usha Chilukuri Vance has become the target of white supremacists and trolls after the Republican leader was picked as the vice president candidate by Donald Trump at the start of the week. Indian-origin Chilukuri is an accomplished lawyer by profession and she has been with JD since they met at Yale University in 2014 during their law degree course.&nbsp;</p>

<p>JD Vance's memoir describes her as his “Yale spirit guide". He credits her for helping him navigate life at the elite university where they met. The couple has three children.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Despite being the 'ideal' wife with an accomplished professional and personal life, many in the far-right spectrum of US politics have launched hate attacks on&nbsp;Usha.&nbsp;</p>

<p>“There is an obvious Indian coup taking place in the U.S. right before our eyes,"&nbsp;Stew Peters, a far-right internet personality, posted a photo of the couple and wrote.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"Who is this guy, really? Do we really expect that the guy who has an Indian wife and named their kid Vivek is going to support white identity?" said Nick Fuentes,&nbsp;another far-right commentator&nbsp;on his podcast.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Fuentes even went on the 'non-traditional' marriage of Usha and JD whilst describing the latter as a 'power-hungry' sociopath.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"Another power-hungry sociopath with the put-on folksy Rustbelt act, obligatory non-combat tour in the Middle East, non-traditional marriage, and conspicuously rapid political ascendancy,"&nbsp;</p>

Did you know Donald Trump's running mate JD Vance has a connection with Hollywood and Freida Pinto?

<p>While the US is gearing up for the 2024 Presidential Elections in the country, the Indians are pumped up for another interesting contest.&nbsp;</p>

<p>At the Republican National Convention (RNC)’s first meeting on Monday (Jul 15), Donald Trump announced JD Vance as his running mate- a move believed to change the way US elections were supposed to happen earlier.</p>

<p>It’s Republican’s JD Vance vs Democrat’s Kamala Harris now for the Vice President race. As for Indians, it means something entirely different.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Indians on social media are pitting for Tamil Nadu vs Andhra Pradesh because Harris’ mother hails from Chennai and Vance’s wife Usha Chilukuri had her roots in Andhra Pradesh.</p>

<h2><strong>US Elections 2024: It’s Tamil Nadu vs Andhra Pradesh for Indians</strong></h2>

<p>Kamala Harris' India connection made headlines both in the US and India when she was chosen as Joe Biden’s running mate in the 2021 elections. This time, it's Republican VP candidate JD Vance’s wife Usha who is attracting eyeballs for being of Indian origin.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Harris’ Indian roots can be traced to the Besant Nagar neighbourhood of Chennai where her mother was born, Shyalama Gopalan. Her mother moved to the US as a teen for a doctoral degree at the University of California Berkeley. There, she met Donald J. Harris of Jamaican descent. The couple got married in 1963 and welcomed daughter Kamala in 1964, followed by daughter Maya in 1967.</p>

<p>Usha Chilukuri’s parents, on the other hand, used to live in Andhra Pradesh’s Chilakaluripeta before moving to the US where Usha was born. She graduated from Yale University with a Bachelor of Arts with History as her major, Deccan Chronicle reported. In 2010, she completed her M.Phil in Early Modern History from the University of Columbia and completed her JD in Law from Yale Law School in 2013.</p>

<p>Usha worked as a legal clerk at the US Supreme Court and is now a successful legal associate with a private law firm in San Francisco.</p>

<p>If Biden wins, Kamala Harris will continue her role as Vice President. If Trump and Vance prevail, Usha Chilukuri will become the Second Lady, residing at the Naval Observatory. The US presidential election is scheduled to be held on November 5.</p>

<p>When it comes to popularity, Kamala Harris is more popular than JD Vance, as per latest polls. According to YouGov, Harris has a 49 per cent popularity rating compared to Vance's 28 per cent. However, Harris also faces higher disapproval rates.&nbsp;</p>

Usha Vance, the highly accomplished lawyer wife of Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance

<p>On the first day of the Republican National Convention, Ohio Senator <strong>JD Vance</strong> received an official ticket for the 2024 Presidential elections as former US President Donald Trump's running mate. If the current polls convert to reality, Vance will be the next Vice President of the United States.</p>

<p>Eight years ago, 39-year-old freshman senator from Ohio, said he feared Trump could become “America’s Hitler”. Vance is married to Usha Chilukuri, a corporate litigator based in San Francisco, whose parents are from India. During their wedding in Kentucky in 2014, they also had a separate ceremony where they were blessed by a Hindu pundit, as reported by The New York Times.</p>

<p>Vance grew up in Middletown, Ohio, and joined the US Marines after high school, serving as a combat journalist and public relations officer during the Iraq War.</p>

<p>After his military service, he completed a degree in political science and philosophy at Ohio State University. He then studied law at Yale Law School, where he was an editor for the Yale Law Journal.</p>

<p>Upon graduating from Yale in 2013, he practiced law briefly before moving to San Francisco to work as a venture capitalist, including a role at Peter Thiel’s Mithril Capital.</p>

<p>Vance gained fame with his 2016 best-seller, Hillbilly Elegy. Released the same year Trump first took office, the book was seen as an insightful look into rural America, which contributed to Trump's rise.</p>

<p>The New York Times described Hillbilly Elegy as "a compassionate, discerning sociological analysis of the white underclass that has influenced the politics of rebellion, notably Donald J. Trump’s rise." A film adaptation of the book came out in 2020.</p>

<p>At that time, Vance was a vocal critic of Trump. In an October 2016 interview, Vance cakled himself "Never Trump guy”. In a July 2016 op-ed for The Atlantic, he argued that Trump’s promises were like “cultural heroin,” offering temporary relief but failing to address deeper issues.</p>

<p>Vance’s views on Trump are notably different now. He reportedly voted for Trump in 2020 and, with Trump’s endorsement, won his first Senate seat in 2022.</p>
