WELL BE WAITING
The Stop Trump Coalition said the vice president will find the resistance waiting on his English summer break, an ocean and almost 4,000 miles from DC.

Anti-Trump protesters have warned that they will derail JD Vances planned English countryside escape.
The vice president, his wife Usha, and their three children are expected to explore London in mid-August, rent a cottage in the Cotswolds, and then travel to Scotland, according to The Telegraph.
The Cotswolds, nicknamed the Hamptons of England, is a stunning area full of rolling hills and quaint villages in the countrys southwest corner, frequented by the wealthy elite, including Hugh Grant, David Beckham, and King Charles. But Vances serene stay, first revealed by The Spectator, is set to be hijacked by a coalition of pro-Palestinian demonstrators, climate protesters and trade unions, the Telegraph reports.

Has Vance ever refuted that party line?
Vance apologized to his white supremacists that his wife is not white.

(19,896 posts)Good that JD is going to be protested while on his vacations. Make no place a safe harbor for him and his family. For he is the face of the Trump regime. No wonder he is being protested wherever he goes. Make his presence uncomfortable.
The Cotswolds are beautiful once one leaves the hustle and bustle of London. My late husband and I took a 13 hour day tour from London's Victoria Coach Station to Windsor Castle, Bath, then Stonehenge. The stone from the Cotswolds were what built the famed Cathedrals of Winchester, Salisbury, etc.
Bath was the get-away for London's rich and Nobility. The Duchess of Devonshire(An ancestor of the late Princess Diana), often went to Bath to get away from her husband, the Duke, and take in the waters there.
May JD Vance be haunted daily with his association with TACO Don and the awfulness of the regime. The world is watching.
