Vance Admits He Curses At His Young Kids in Public Bathrooms

JD Vance has said that his wife Usha is “way more accomplished” than him, and on Tuesday he disclosed another quality where his wife has him beat: patience.

In a podcast interview with conservative commentator Katie Miller, Vance said that when his young kids—aged 8, 5, and 3—act out, his response is swift and vulgar.

“If they have a tantrum in a public place, I immediately grab them, take them to the bathroom and say, ‘You got to cut the s--t out,’” Vance said.

The vice president contrasted his tough approach with his wife’s, who he described as having a more “gentle” approach.

“She is super patient,” Vance said of the second lady. “She’ll try to reason with them.”

by throwing gasoline on her husband and lighting a match…. maybe he can’t help it because it runs in the family, poor guy.
