A recent spat on social media has seen support for Republican vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) surge in response to apparent insults from prominent Democrats.
The backlash from Republicans came after several Democratic figures, including Vice President Kamala Harris and Sen. Chuck Schumer, called Vance “weird” during several public appearances.
