Usha Vance goes from high-powered lawyer to ... JD's trad wife

Usha Vance might be the most accomplished second lady to ever grace the White House halls. From her law degree at Yale to her time working as a law clerk for several senior judges such as Justice Brett Kavanaugh and Chief Justice John Roberts, Usha is much more than just Vice President JD Vance’s wife.

But when her college sweetheart was chosen as Donald Trump’s vice president, Usha’s accomplishments didn’t just go to the wayside—they were completely placed on hold.

“The day before JD was selected—I did not know he was going to be selected—I was working as a lawyer, and I had the wardrobe of a person with three children who likes to do things outdoors, who has a dog, who doesn’t like things to be too precious,” Usha told the Free Press in an interview published Monday.

“And then, a switch flipped, and it’s not like it came with a whole new wardrobe and stylist and everything.”

Usha married JD Vance. What does that say about her?

(It says she's as bad as he is.)
