Second lady Usha Vance hosted her husband for a special Father’s Day edition of her series “Storytime with the Second Lady.” The couple read “Winnie the Pooh” and discussed their family dynamics \u2014 and expecting their fourth child together.<\/p>\n

But one moment stood out \u2014 and social media commentators were quick to discuss it.<\/p>\n

“The face Usha Vance makes when JD touches her knee is a cry for help if I’ve ever seen one,” Democratic strategist and entrepreneur Mike Nellis wrote on X.<\/p>\n

“I have never in my entire life of reluctant heterosexuality had a man slap my knee like that. You can\u2019t convince me these people know each other\u2019s coffee orders let alone have been intimate together,” user Casey, who identifies as a teacher and political scientist with more than 12,000 followers, wrote on X.<\/p>\n

“Holy s—. This painfully awkward JD Vance moment is going viral. After being introduced by his wife, Vance taps her knee and says, ‘Good to see ya.’ I\u2019ve seen more chemistry during the Iran negotiations. This guy will never be president,” Call to Activism, an anti-MAGA group with 1.2 million followers, wrote on X.<\/p>\n

” J.D. Vance has begun his 2028 presidential run. And for our sake, I hope he keeps himself in the spotlight\u2014because so far, things are going swimmingly \u2014 for us,” Jennifer Taylor Skinner, political analyst, host and founder of Electorette, wrote on Threads.<\/p>\n

“Taking the rest of the day off to process JD Vance knee-slap-gate,” Betches News wrote on Threads.<\/p>\n
