Vice President JD Vance drew fierce criticism at a Fox News town hall in Fort Worth, Texas, on Thursday after opening his reply to a young voter's housing affordability question with a crude joke about Ohio Senator Jon Husted's backside — a running gag started by President Trump at rallies last month.
The exchange has gone viral, with a 54-second clip racking up over 6.9 million views on X.
Vance later admitted he was 'jealous' Trump had never praised his physique, calling the president 'a comedian who doesn't take himself too seriously.'
Former Trump White House deputy press secretary Sarah Matthews wrote: 'I genuinely cannot believe this is a real exchange between a voter and the Vice President.'
