The "Good" Immigrants, The "Bad," & The Tap Vance
from Nationly · host Immigrantly Media
JD Vance, a 39-year-old senator from Ohio, was once an outspoken critic of Donald Trump, comparing him to heroin and even calling him 'America's Hitler.' Now, he is Trump's running mate in the 2024 election. In this episode, hosts Sara Sadhwani and Juan Diego Ramirez examine Vance's background, his selection's strategic implications for the Republican Party, and the potential impact on key states. Sara and Juan Diego also discuss the optics of Vance's marriage to Usha Vance, who is the daughter of Indian immigrants. They delve into the broader narratives around 'good' versus 'bad' immigrants, and the opportunistic representation of minorities in American politics. The episode is co-hosted by political science professor Sara Sadhwani and multimedia journalist J.D. Ramirez.
