Vice President JD Vance was met with hundreds of pro-Ukraine protesters while visiting a Vermont ski resort on Saturday, following his public dust up with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in the White House.

Vance and his family, on a trip to Sugarbush Resort, were greeted by the outraged protesters lining the snow-covered streets of the small Vermont town of Waitsfield.

Protestors displayed signs that labeled Vance a “national disgrace,” accused him of being a “traitor” and encouraged the family to “go ski in Russia.”

      … and it’s great to get it on to Fox News to reach their clients. There’s increasing suffering among them and at some point people will join the protesters.

        Maybe. But you know what? Protestors ran off the VP from his weekend getaway. Even if he did just go to a “more luxurious” resort, he still went running tail between his legs from his originally planned vacation, and at the very least had to spend a bunch of time traveling instead of doing the skiing he planned to do. I can definitely tell who’s more pathetic in this scenario.

        Naw. Unless your hiking up or taking a copter there are only a few major mountains with high end accomodations.

        The 16 trail and two lift mountains, while nice, are anything but luxurious.
