FactPost @factpostnewsJD Vance's family is set to vacation in a $10.8k per week luxury Cotswolds manor.

Americans cant afford groceries right now.

___JD Vance's reported rental sits merely a stone's throw away from Jeremy Clarkson's renowned Diddly Squat Farm in Chadlington near Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire - the setting of his enormously successful Amazon Prime show, 'Clarkson's Farm'...
Nevertheless, the Daily Mail's Ephraim Hardcastle has highlighted a potential complication with this arrangement. Indeed, it could potentially result in an "awkward" confrontation between the pair, stemming entirely from the TV host's previous remarks.
Ephraim referenced Clarkson's disparaging remarks about Trump's second-in-command from earlier occasions, emphasizing how he'd branded the politician as a "bearded God-botherer" and even a "t**t"'.
These comments emerged in March when Clarkson responded sharply to Vance in his Sunday Times column following the vice president's characterization of the UK as "some random country that hasn't fought a war in 30 or 40 years".
Clarkson wrote: "Now I don't want to stoop to his level, but I'm going to. Vance is a bearded God-botherer who pretty much thinks that women who've been raped should be forced to have the resultant child.

(11,450 posts)right? He's bringing his family, so even if he argues that *he's* there on business he should pay his wife and kids' way.

(63 posts)Vance is on perpetual vacation from what I can see. He just returned from a "vacation" in Cincinnati this past week where he and his family went canoeing on the Little Miami and they had the Corp of Engineers release water from a reservoir to raise the water level so the SS could navigate heavier boats. I hate when he's in town.
