The thing to remember about Donald Trump, Elon Musk, JD Vance and all of the people who support them is that every single one of these people are huge losers. Not only are they dumbass losers, they are desperate for public acceptance, they’re desperate to be cool, they’re desperate to be seen as part of the upper echelon of society. They never will be – the stench of their loserdom has seeped into their skin and everyone can smell the loser on them. As part of his effort to be “cool,” Donald Trump fired the Democrats on the Kennedy Center’s board and installed MAGAts in their place. Trump also installed some kind of wingnut loyalist as acting chairman of the Kennedy Center. MAGAts want to remake the center into a celebration of their wingnut culture, no more woke, no more DEI, no more… art or coolness or quality. Well, last night, JD Vance went to the Kennedy Center to take in a performance by the National Symphony Orchestra. That bitch got booed.
Vice President J.D. Vance was booed while watching a performance at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts after President Donald Trump took over leadership. According to a video shared by The Guardian global affairs correspondent Andrew Roth on X, Thursday, March 13, Vance, 40, was quickly booed as he prepared to watch the National Symphony Orchestra and Greek violinist Leonidas Kavakos perform Stravinsky’s Petrushka from a balcony seat. His wife, Usha Vance, was seen accompanying him.
As the vice president takes a seat, a man could be heard yelling, “Boo.” Another person is heard saying, “Oh f—.”
After more members of the audience became aware of Vance’s presence, the boos grew in unison, causing Vance to take a sip of his drink and wave at the audience sitting below him. As he continued speaking with his wife, the boos continued and lasted roughly 30 seconds, per The New York Times.
I’m including the video below – y’all are gonna make Vance cry and then he’ll have to go reapply his eyeliner in the bathroom. “But I’m vice president, how could they boo me, didn’t they see me mock President Zelenskyy?” I hope some of those boos were for Usha Vance too. Both of those pieces of sh-t need to be booed everywhere they go.

He is lucky it’s just booing!!! I wouldn’t be sad if someone tried to take him and the others out.
As much as I despise him, Trump, Miller etc, assassination is not the best way to go.
At this point time it’s exactly the way they should go.
I love the good people of Washington, D.C. for defending this beautiful institution. The Kennedy Center was where I felt happiest when I lived in that city.
Let’s brace ourselves for this year’s Kennedy Center Honors going to people like Kid Rock or Mel Gibson. Boo them all the way.
As a longtime D.C. resident I am so proud of my city for refusing to kowtow to these lunatics–not the first time, not this time, not ever. It gives us great pleasure to make sure these people feel as unwelcome as possible wherever they dare to venture in our great city.
A huge thank you to all the crowd and the residents of D.C. who made their disgust clear. Vance wants to be loved and admired but he never will be. He will never hear cheers and applause from such an audience. Bless them for doing what I wish I could.
I’d have walked out and asked for a refund.
Maybe the crowd at the Kennedy need to bring rotten tomatoes with them for occasions such as these (eggs would be wasted). Make it full Globe.
Usha smiling like a cat. Ugh.
May they never have a moment’s peace in public again. May he have to look over his shoulder for the rest of his life.
I agree Blogger. They are lucky that they don’t have concessions. They might have sold rotten tomatoes and eggs (!) if they knew that they were going to be there.
And he just laughs and smiles. Does he actually think that they are cheering for him?
He waves, laughs and smiles but inwardly he’s wanting to do a full Hitler and send all those who booed him to a concentration camp.
Who’s booing now?
Dangerous times indeed.
This the last chance to watch performances picked by normal people who appreciate and understand art. Next season will be picked by Trump. I wouldn’t walk out on the performers either, but next season there will probably be many empty seats.
Usha, have you no pride?
She sold it to the devil in exchange for “security”.
No, she doesn’t. She’s probably as bad as him.
Wasn’t she a SCOTUS clerk, Roberts, I think. She has the same ideology as the rest of those *&^%$ POS. Gotta wonder about how she disassociates herself from their odious ideology (and her kids, by extension) as a POC and “othering”.
She’s on the new board
She made a nice deal $$$$$$$$ to be his second lady.
She’s as bad as he is, she’s just quieter and more devious about it.
True!
Yay Kennedy Center crowd!
It’s giving Vermont and I’m here for it.
Don’t want boos? Try sucking less. Seems pretty straightforward to me.
Whenever I see Usha I wonder whats going on in her head. She seems weirdly checked out.
She reminds me of the former Syrian First Lady, Asma Al-Assad
I couldn’t find the original Newsweek article but this is from the journo who wrote the Vogue article.
https://www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle/people/arid-20203653.html
Thank you so much for that link! I distinctly remember that article in Vogue and my jaw dropping while I was reading it. I always wondered what the writer must have been thinking and this explains it.
Great article Blogger, thanks for posting. It sent shivers down my spine!
Wow, that is quite a read. Thanks for that.
They should have played some Shostakovich for this traitor. DSCH, jerk. Look it up.
THEY DID!!! They played Petrushka!!! I kid you not! (It’s a ballet about a Russian puppet for those who don’t know).
LMAO! Thanks @Sue, I didn’t know that.
I don’t know. Wagner seems more his style. 🤔 Seems hard to believe that just three months ago, we had a vice president who appeared at the Kennedy Center Honors to massive, prolonged cheers.
How does Usha stay married to a white supremacist? I seriously don’t get it. Her husband is radicalized.
She’s a breath away from becoming the First Lady of the United States. And Trump is not exactly the picture of youth and good health. That’s why she’s there.
And probably $$$$$.
Fame, place in the history books. The opposite is obscurity and Usha who?
Racist MAGAts have gone after her because she’s Indian. They’ve even insulted her children for being “half-breeds” and yet her husband continues to kiss the MAGA ring. She knows exactly what she’s doing — she’s as right wing as her idiot husband (she clerked for John Roberts and Brett Kavanagh FFS) only she’s more subversive about it.
^This. She’s a racist self-hating Indian woman.
$$$$$$, power adjacency, and she thinks they think she’s one of the “good ones.”
“Not only are they dumbass losers, they are desperate for public acceptance, they’re desperate to be cool, they’re desperate to be seen as part of the upper echelon of society. They never will be – the stench of their loserdom has seeped into their skin and everyone can smell the loser on them.”
I have a theory about this. Few years back, around the time of BLM and other events, there were a lot of people swinging to the left (some of them believed in it whole-heartedly, some didnt really understand but bought into the trend). And it looked cool. Being anti-racism, advocating for DEI, supporting LGBTQ etc looked fashionable although these were serious topics. Enter cancel culture. Right wing nuts or even “neutral” folks were maaad. Because they felt othered because their bigotry wasnt accepted. Instead of figuring out why they were unpopular, they got defensive and started attacking the left and the liberals or pretty much anybody who wasnt a right wing asshole.
To them, the “woke” crowd was an elitist club and the only way to get included was to be anti-racist and anti-bigotry etc. They want to now look cool, like the left and which is why they’re desperate to be seen as part of the upper echelon of society.
How awful for the folks who paid good money to go there and enjoy themselves and to have them show up, Get out the sage!
Need a whole cleansing/exorcism ceremony.
No one’s going to attend these concerts if he keeps turning up like that.
Look at her pretending to have a conversation with him like nothing is wrong! Sitting there fake-laughing while ICE is targeting Indians for deportation, shame!
Usha is going to file for divorce. You can see it in her face at events. She did not sign up for her husband becoming a puppet of Peter Thiel and Vladimir Putin.
I’m not convinced. She seems to smile at him a lot. At least Melania looks miserable with Trump. Usha looks as though she might actually like her husband, which I find bizarre.
It would be nice if she divorced him, but I think maybe this is what she wanted.
Does anyone have any idea what her parents think?
No she won’t, she’s as power-hungry as her MAGA husband — but she’s very careful to stay in the background. She’s only done one TV interview (with Fox’s Ainsley Earhardt) and it was curated to the max. She’s as deep into far-right Trumpworld as her husband.
She signed up and signed on for exactly this. She’s as awful as her bought-and-paid by Heritage Foundation husband.
We need to stop giving these wives so much grace. she knows who her husband is. She knows what he’s willing to do for power. And she’s right there with him every step of the way.
She would be giving up way too much. She’s living the good life now. This is what she wanted. She already sold her soul long ago. And she had sex at least three times with someone who was arguably the most unlikable and unattractive person we’ve ever encountered. Getting booed is no big deal to her.
LOL and bletch! Getting booed is a walk in the park compared to having that troglodyte grunting and sweating on top of you (and never getting you “there”)
Usha has been involved with Vance since they were both in law school — where he met Thiel. She’s been there every step of the way, while he’s transformed himself from a gauche DEI admit to Thiel’s protégé, to the person he is today. I think she’s fine with him — although she may have failed to anticipate the social consequences.
I do wonder, though, what Vance’s DEI-supporting mother in law thinks.

Kudos to the audience showing support for the performers who were booked when Biden was at the White House! Next season when the new board is in charge will be the time to protest more than guestsl
CB Team – Please consider not embedding links and videos to X. Maybe include screenshots and if we want to pursue the video ourselves on X we’re free to do so? Just brainstorming. Any loss in traffic would be great for those of us who are anti-Elno.
Good for the boo-ers! Glad it was recorded. There was NO reason for DJT to go after the Kennedy Center other than spite and long-held grievances about being rejected by NYC society, artists, and people who support the arts, etc. Performers are cancelling in protest. Kid Rock and Kanye are probably available. I hope people withdraw their support and speak up, but if we make it a BIG deal with protests he will LOVE it and serve it up to the resentful wing of the MAGA base: ‘We owned the libs.’ ‘Look at them cry.’ etc. These are dark times. 😞
Trump and Elon want to be liked. Vance…is a different animal, IMO, and people need to be careful of the difference. He’s the angry little boy knocking over the block tower. Cruelty is power to him. He loves this stuff to some extent because it’s just a reminder of his power, the fact that booing is all some people can do.
This being said, I think if he ever takes power if Trump dies/is removed, I think a power struggle is going to happen between him and Musk. And if he wins, I think a military coup becomes inevitable down the line. The Zelensky meeting shows us he can’t even pretend to be nice. He goes straight for the power grab. You need to at least have the pretense to be a world leader.
Agreed—he’s been truly bad news from day one. He’d have no problem having people shot for looking at him wrong,
😍
I love this for him! What on earth was he expecting when he decided to do that little wave at the audience?
Unfortunately, these kinds of ego-injuries to very small-minded people are stoking the Trump administration’s goal of federalizing the city.
Expect them to be the recipients of boos for life.
