Usha Vance: From Yale Romance to 1st Indian-American Second Lady as J.D Takes Oath as Vice President

Usha Vance made history as the first Indian-American and Hindu Second Lady of the United States as her husband, J.D. Vance, was sworn in as the 50th Vice President. The couple's love story began at Yale University, where J.D. credited Usha as his "spirit guide," helping him navigate the challenges of Ivy League life. Their bond grew stronger over the years, with Usha supporting J.D.'s political journey and their growing family. Usha's dedication to her family and her impressive career as a corporate litigator made her a prominent figure at the inauguration. President Donald Trump later praised Usha for her intellect, even joking that he might have chosen her as Vice President instead of J.D #trumpoathceremony #jdvance #trumpoath #inaugurationday #trumpnews #usa #donaldtrump #jdvancefather #ushavance #uspresident #donaldtrumpspeech #trump #trumpinauguration #usatoday #usnews #trumpoath #jdvancekids ~HT.178~GR.121~PR.274~ED.103~
