Vance defends saying he hopes his wife converts to Christianity
Vice President JD Vance, who drew scrutiny this week by saying he hopes his Hindu wife converts to Christianity, on Friday pushed back against critics, accusing them of “anti-Christian bigotry.”
At a Turning Point USA-sponsored event in Mississippi on Wednesday to honor slain activist Charlie Kirk, Vance was asked about raising three children in an interfaith marriage with second lady Usha Vance. The questioner asked why conservatives seemed to have made Christianity a prerequisite for being considered a patriotic American.
