WASHINGTON, DC: In the whirlwind of political fervor surrounding Donald Trump's Pennsylvania rally shooting and subsequent vice presidential selection, all eyes are on JD Vance and his wife Usha Vance.

"After lengthy deliberation and thought, and considering the tremendous talents of many others, I have decided that the person best suited to assume the position of Vice President of the United States is Senator J.D. Vance of the Great State of Ohio," Trump penned on Truth Social.

As Vance accepted the nomination with grandiose promises of constitutional defense and national restoration, Usha's subtle reservations have not gone unnoticed.



 

Usha Vance's unspoken concerns about husband's VP candidacy

During a revealing interview on 'Fox & Friends,' Usha Vance's demeanor hinted at complexities beneath the surface. While JD Vance radiated enthusiasm for his potential role as vice president, Usha's guarded expressions and carefully chosen words suggested a different story.

Fraud-busting body language expert Traci Brown, CSP, analyzed Usha's non-verbal cues during the interview, noting a subtle tension.

"She is not really into this but is gonna be supportive," Brown observed, highlighting Usha's conflicted sentiments despite outward expressions of support.

The body language expert also pointed out Usha's physical gestures as evidence of her reservations about her husband's potential White House future.

"The first thing I noticed is that she was hiding behind her hair at the opening of the interview," Brown observed. "She appears to stare off into space a bit while answering from time to time. This is her pattern when she is constructing an answer."

Additionally, she highlighted Usha's frequent eye contact with her husband, suggesting a mix of pride and a desire for reassurance.

In addressing the scrutiny accompanying Vance's VP candidacy, Usha acknowledged the challenges ahead.

"I don't know that anyone is ever ready for that kind of scrutiny," she remarked. "I mean, I think we found the first campaign that we embarked on to be a shock."

Brown hinted that Usha was "trying to distance herself from the potential of scrutiny." "It takes her a while to get to the answer where she uses 'I' but rather starts with 'you.'"

Nevertheless, Usha is "supportive but cautious."

Donald Trump supporters' unease about JD Vance's VP candidadcy

There is concern among some Donald Trump supporters regarding JD Vance, considering his history of openly criticizing the former president.

"Trump makes people I care about afraid. Immigrants, Muslims, etc. Because of this I find him reprehensible. God wants better of us," Vance reportedly stated in a tweet that has since been deleted, as noted by Ron Filipkowski.

Judge Juan Merchan scheduled Trump's criminal trial to begin on April 15, which would make it the first criminal prosecution of a former American president. Trump was charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records last year, which prosecutors say was an effort to hide a potential sex scandal, both before and after the 2016 election.

However, Usha is not alone in potentially opposing Vance's candidacy for Vice President.

Following Trump's announcement of Vance as Mike Pence's replacement, a wide range of opinions has emerged across the political spectrum, with many expressing reservations about his suitability for the role.

President Joe Biden was particularly vocal in sharing his views on the matter via X. "Here's the deal about J.D. Vance. He talks a big game about working people. But now, he and Trump want to raise taxes on middle-class families while pushing more tax cuts for the rich," Biden said in a tweet. 



 

On another note, Vice President Kamala Harris reportedly looks forward to facing off with Vance in the upcoming vice presidential debate.

"We expect that she will do the same if JD Vance is willing to debate her. But I can tell you right now that the vice president is fully prepared to take him on," shared a spokesperson from the Biden campaign with The Hill.

"While she's been in every kind of fight on behalf of working families, I'm looking forward to this debate."
