when they went there to try to gladhand and smarm their way into a PR coup:
JD Vance ruthlessly mocked after everyone in Greenland refused to welcome wife Usha Vance
US Vice President JD Vance tours the US military's Pituffik Space Base on March 28, 2025 in Pituffik, Greenland. The itinerary for the visit was scaled back after a plan for a more extensive trip drew criticism from officials in Greenland and Denmark.
Vice President JD Vance and his wife, Usha Vance, landed in Greenland on Friday afternoon, but they had to rearrange their entire trip to avoid embarrassment after people in the country said they didnt want to welcome the couple.
And now, of course, the internet is roasting Vance for being unpopular wherever he goes.
In anticipation of the visit, American officials went door-to-door in Nuuk, Greenlands capital, in the hopes of finding residents who wanted to greet Usha Vance, but no one took them up on the offer, Danish TV reports per
The Daily Beast. Instead, that part of the trip and an excursion to see a dog sled race were pared down to just a visit to the remote American missile defense station on the island.
