Opponents of President Donald Trump used the photo to comment on Vance's personal life. One Facebook user commented sarcastically: 'It seems things are not going well in the republic of the Republicans.' Vance responded to those comments yesterday on the social media platform X with a joke: 'I always wear underwear when I go out in public to argue loudly with my wife.' This comes amid a wave of rumors about the couple's relationship since last October, especially after Usha appeared at two events with First Lady Melania Trump without her wedding ring. Her spokesperson commented that as a busy mother, she might sometimes forget to wear the ring. In a previous interview with NBC News, Vance expressed his indifference to these talks, saying they 'listen to them to some extent.' On a widely circulated social media photo that allegedly shows Vance in a verbal altercation with his wife Usha, he pointed out that the photo is undated and unconfirmed and appears to have been created using artificial intelligence technology.
