'Keep my wife's name out of your mouth': JD Vance slams Democrat over jibe at Usha, she reacts too
The controversy broke out after JD Vance attacked Abdul El-Sayed over remarks he had previously made about Sharia law at a rally in Ohio.
Usha Vance, wife of Vice President JD Vance, expressed amusement upon learning that her husband had warned Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed to keep his wife's name out of his mouth. The controversy erupted when El-Sayed made remarks about Sharia law at a rally in Ohio, prompting Vance to criticize the candidate for supporting Sharia law and viewing opposition to it as white supremacy.
During a MAGA rally in Michigan, Vance dismissed El-Sayed as "very, very evil" and warned him not to mention his wife's name. El-Sayed, who is the daughter of Indian immigrants and grew up in a Hindu family, responded on X, expressing disbelief at the notion of meeting Vance's grandparents. His wife, Usha, who is of Indian descent, responded to the situation with laughter, stating that she never met Vance's grandparents but knows and loves their children.
