...who “does a lot of dishes,” according to People.

They don't have house staff at the Naval Observatory? Please.

Au contraire, according to this Salon article. The Navy provides support services at the VP residence - https://www.salon.com/2025/11/26/usha-vance-doesnt-do-dishes-so-why-the-wedding-ring-excuse/

...a day, and continue to do so since retiring. Always wore my ring to work. I only take my it off to clean the diamonds - I wash the few things that don't go in the dishwasher with it on, I shower with it on, I've painted walls with it on, I sleep with it on.

did not supply support services. And they don't have a dishwasher in the residence? try again, you erszatz hillbilly.

No woman I know, or have ever known, takes her wedding ring off to wash dishes.

I thought, “The VP doesn’t have dishwasher?” But your point is better. Of course there’s staff to do that.

The post administration divorces are going to be epic. Trump might be the only one not cheating on their spouse.

Oh, I suppose its accurate that he discussed the difficulties faced by his family, particularly his kids, due to his role as VP. But the article makes doesn't in any way support the notion that he is acknowledging difficulties in his marriage. In fact, it says the opposite.

DU shouldn't be a home for stupid gossip rags shit.
