He also reportedly criticized the number of vacations JD Vance has taken.<\/p>\n<p>According to friends of the second lady who spoke with The Washington Post, Vance\u2014who met her husband when they studied at Yale Law School\u2014has in the past found some of the president\u2019s actions, including Trump\u2019s alleged inciting of the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, \u201cdeeply disturbing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe was generally appalled by Trump, from the moment of his first election,\u201d Vance\u2019s friend told The Post. <\/p>\n<p>Still, the second lady, who has largely kept a low profile during her husband\u2019s time in the White House, focusing instead on promoting childhood literacy and youth arts, has maintained a friendly demeanor toward the president since the beginning of his second term. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=2793\">Melania Goon Spills on Her Surprise Epstein Speech<\/a><\/p>\n<p>She even appeared at the sparsely attended Great American State Fair this week, where she hosted a bookmark contest as the MAGA-fied event ran into a string of setbacks, with nearly every musical artist pulling out, electrical outages melting the ice cream, and generator issues briefly shutting down the Ferris wheel.<\/p>\n<p>During Trump\u2019s appearance on the podcast, Vance smiled as the president delivered a string of awkward remarks about former presidents featured in the children\u2019s book, including calling John F. Kennedy the \u201csecond most good-looking president\u201d after himself and taking a swipe at Barack Obama\u2019s basketball skills, saying he \u201cdoubts\u201d he is any good.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s \u201cspecial\u201d appearance on the podcast came across as more openly affectionate than when the second lady previously invited her husband on the show, an episode that drew online attention when the vice president awkwardly placed a hand on his pregnant wife\u2019s knee.<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Beast\u2019s political newsletter, The Swamp, has reported that some of Vance\u2019s previous guests have not always aligned neatly with the Trump administration\u2019s broader agenda.<\/p>\n<p>In one episode, for example, Vance\u2019s mother, microbiologist Lakshmi Chilukuri, reads <i>How the Camel Got His Hump<\/i>. When the reading concludes, Vance asks her mother if she believes the story of how the camel got his hump is accurate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell,\u201d the microbiologist says, \u201cThere\u2019s a whole science called evolution that tells you how animals develop the way they did.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Views within the Trump administration on evolution vary, with some officials openly holding creationist views. Trump has generally avoided taking a clear position, neither endorsing nor rejecting the scientific consensus.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=2791\">Carville Reveals Why Trump\u2019s \u2018Breath-Taking\u2019 Corruption Changes Everything<\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>The Daily Beast has reached out to the White House for comment. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donald Trump joined Usha Vance for a children\u2019s book reading, lavishing praise on the vice president\u2019s wife.
