No passes for tyrants, nor their supporters. She's as dirty as the rest of them, and this is an unreasonable expense for an unnecessary trip.
For all the garbage JD spews about unnecessary federal govt expenses you would think he would avoid his wife tagging along on this dog sled junket.
Plus to go on a vacation to a country that your husband is trying to invade is dangerous and stupid and shows a lot of disregard for her child-granted having lots of secret service accompany her will help keep them safe-at the expense of the American taxpayer.

All this says is that you cannot distinguish between the important and the unimportant.

FWIW, she’s not someone that I have any positive feelings for, but as the VP spouse I think she should be treated like any of the others. It’s an associate that comes with perks.
Aren't all of her kids elementary age? How can a child that age be "okay with it"?
“Do you want to go on a trip? The flight will be X hours. It will be cold. You’ll probably be the only kid there. There may be photographers, and you’ll need to be on your best behavior for some of the events. What do you think? ” Like that.
What elementary school kid wants this? "Want to be mommy's little prop while she goes to a foreign country as Daddy's boss's little prop?" Eww.
That’s one take. There are others.
Decades later I remember being the only kid going with a tour group along with my family on a trip that included several European countries — and tours of a few schools — because my Mom won a grant with an educational focus. I’m glad that I got to go. I remember quite a few highlights, including places that I hoped to visit again as an adult.
FWIW, being “Daddy’s boss’s little prop” on a trip that includes his Mom is not the worst exploitation of a kid that we’ve seen from this administration.

She needs the kid to sit on her shoulders.
I've no idea which child she is bringing. But, these are young children and the mom wants to spend time with them. It may be she is bringing one of the kids who would enjoy seeing the dogsled race.
Exactly. Doesn't everyone remember the Trump EO encouraging Federal employees to bring their children on work trips?

Agree. Loads to hate on. This barely registers.
+1 for the who cares
I hope the kid is young enough not to understand when she gets booed.

An article said she is bringing a son, so it’s one of the two older ones. They were 7 and 4 at the inauguration. I don’t know if either has had a birthday since then.

Only the oldest of their 3 is old enough to be in elementary school.

We paid for the Obama girls and the Biden granddaughters to travel all over the world.
The Obama girls were the President’s daughters. Did the Biden granddaughters fly all over the place when he was President or Vice President? The Vance children are not part of the First Family.

No one invited her to Greenland and to take her kid there to parade and grift around as US taxpayers pay millions to fund her flight and secret service agents.

Usha Vance, the second lady, is scheduled to join the White House national security adviser, the energy secretary and other U.S. officials to visit Greenland this week, amid President Trump’s continued push to take over the island, officials said on Sunday.
In a statement, the Trump administration said Ms. Vance will visit Greenland with one of her children on Thursday, to visit historical sites and attend a national dog sled race.
“Ms. Vance and the delegation are excited to witness this monumental race and celebrate Greenlandic culture and unity,” the statement said.
Separately, Michael Waltz, the national security adviser, is expected to tour a U.S. military base, two U.S. officials said. Chris Wright, the energy secretary, is expected to join him, according to another person with knowledge of the visit, as the Trump administration increases its focus on Arctic security and the Western Hemisphere.
Is that the fiefdom Vance will get? Oh boy why oh why are they there?
To introduce the new Duke and Duchess of Greenland.
