JD Vance's mother calls on hometown to Honor him

"I am just here because I am JD Vance's mother and as you know he is our new vice president-elect and he thinks of Middletown as his home," Aikins said during the meeting's public comment. "I still live here and his sister still lives in Middletown. He's got two nieces who live here and I just think it would be really nice if we could acknowledge that this is his hometown and put up some signs."

"He graduated from Middletown High School," she added. "He comes back here frequently to visit me and take me to dinner, and I humbly request that."

Councilwoman Jennifer Carter, who previously told The Enquirer she doesn't like Vance's polices, said the vice president-elect should have to prove himself before a sign or street is named after him, as other Middletown natives have done.

"Why can't we wait and see what he does?" she said. "If he gets into office and creates havoc, with him and Trump sending people out of the country... all of the things they said they wanted to do. If all of these things happen, we're still saying yay?"

darling adult sons? Musk, Hegseth, and now Vance.

We're dealing with the highest levels of the most powerful nation on the planet in extremely dangerous times. But these mothers are behaving like it's a PTA meeting or back-to-school night at their kids' elementary school.

She must be so proud that he stands in line and kisses the ring of the most corrupt president in US history. There's nothing that says "let's destroy the economy of the US" more, than Chump.

I think she has one hell of a nerve. The vibe to me is that no one in that town even likes him and she is begging for their approval. So far all he has proven to be is a creep and an ass kisser.

"See, I'm a down to earth guy who loves families!"
But even the family that they supposedly chose to make can't seem to stand them enough to be seen in public with them.

Instead, Mommie seems to be the only one who can be depended on to look happy with her famous, grown-up little Boy.
