Shame on you, OP. Vance worked very hard those 3-4 hours in between vacations!
Besides Obama went to Camp David once and I heard Joe Biden spent every summer weekend working from his beach house. |
Don’t forget the horrors of the time MAGAs had to endure Obama in a tan suit and the time that Biden ate ice cream. |
I suppose on a personal trip like this he pays for his own room...but taxpayers are still on the hook for his security detail. But hey, at least this one didn't involve air travel. |
They could make it more cost neutral by charging money to watch him run. |
Good job, OP! |

He also had a Feb 2025 trip to Paris with Usha and the kids where they opened up down Louvre for them on a day it was closed and also went to the newly renovated Notre Dame cathedral. But he was speaking at an “AI conference” so I’m sure this was billed as a “work trip.”

The kids are usually in pajamas as they board Air Force Two for the overnight The Vances appear to have tried on occasion to avoid such disruptions. In France, the family visited the Louvre on a Tuesday, a day when the museum is closed to the public. https://newsroom.ap.org/editorial-photos-videos/detail?itemid=a37e7fa953344b4483448e55ba846e5b&mediatype=video |
| For the Italy trip you forgot to mention that he was one of the last people to meet Pope Francis on the day before he died. |
😂😂😂 |
| He’s barely been VP for 6 months. He is lazy and entitled. |
| My catastrophizing instincts make me wonder if he’s having some sort of last hurrahs before the poo really hits the fan. |
Maybe. More likely he’s just lazy…even when he campaigned to be US Senator in Ohio, he was pretty absent from the campaign trail and people complained he wasn’t working for it. But he had Peter Thiel buy him the nomination and Ohio is so red now it would vote for a croissant with an R next to its name so here we are. |
| He should list the VP residence on AirBnB. He’s never there |
Correction: Ohio is so gerrymandered it would elect a croissant with an R next to its name. Even if the croissant had ignored sexual abuse at Ohio’s flagship university while coaching there. |
