VP JD Vance criticized for socks and booing
Vice President JD Vance gained attention last week for two reasons. He wore white socks with green shamrocks during meetings with Ireland's Prime Minister and was booed at the Kennedy Center while attending a National Symphony Orchestra performance. At the Kennedy Center, Vance faced a negative reception from the audience. This occurred after President Trump made controversial changes to the center's board and criticized current cultural trends. Vance's socks were a light-hearted topic during his meetings, with Trump expressing admiration for them. Vance humorously noted that he needed support for his sock choice, linking it to strengthening Irish-American relations.
