[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Didn't he change his name? I don't think he was born JD Vance.

Seems like a big fake.[/quote]

You people are so tiresome.  His MOM changed his name when he was a boy, and then he decided as an adult to change his last name to honor his grandparents.  But, you know that.  Keep up the gaslighting![/quote]

So, the answer is yes. He changed his name. [/quote]

Would you want your alcoholic step father’s last name, that didn’t even stay married to your mother? And his grandparents were pretty abusive and wild too, though that tempered down as Vance grew up.  His grandmother was pregnant at 13! But in their younger years they were both violet and she was a major hoarder. Apparently MeeMaw set PawPaw on fire once! No wonder his mom had major issues.

From The New Yorker piece:

“ On one occasion, she split Jim’s forehead open with a vase. On another, she set him on fire. One of her kids—who was then eleven years old—snuffed out the flames.”  That’s the grandparents.

I think it is safe to conclude he had a poor and bizarre childhood
