It looks like JD Vance and Erika Kirk are fueling the rumor of the year. And it all has to do with their viral hug at a recent Turning Point USA event. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.
JD Vance And Erika Kirk Fuel The Rumor Of The Year
Apparently, a lot of people couldn’t help but give Erika the side eye for running her fingers through JD Vance’s hair on stage as they embraced. Let’s not forget that JD is married to his wife, Usha Vance.
If that weren’t enough, JD also put his hands on Erika’s hips. This has prompted a lot of people to wonder what might be going on as their behavior seemed to be a little inappropriate. Actually, make that very inappropriate.
It goes without saying that the internet certainly did have a lot to say about the matter.
Some even took to social media to comment with, “Tight leather pants, running your hair through a married man’s hair, big smiles for the adoration you are receiving, going on the circuit. Hmm.”
Love is in air (within just 1 mth of husband’s death)
“No one will ever replace Charlie….but I do see some similarities of my husband in JD…Vice President JD Vance”
~Says Erika Kirk, widow of Charlie Kirk.

What Is Going On With JD Vance And Erika Kirk?
“She’s so bad at grief there are right wingers starting conspiracies about her and Kirk’s death. It’s hard to say they’re crazy on this one, because she can’t stop smiling and doing things like this.”
Another critic wrote, “I shouldn’t be surprised, but I cringed-watched and, um, what is she doing?? She’s all made up with the bouncy big hair, the makeup and those tight leather pants, good lord. She is 100% trying to snag JD’s attention in front of that audience. Is Usha there?!”
And then there was this comment as well: “She strikes me as someone who would want to find another man to take care of her as soon as possible.”
“Yeah, she got all the TPUSA money and she’s the CEO or whatever now, but I get the impression she doesn’t want the work that comes with it. She’d rather be the trophy wife.”
