A few weeks ago, JD Vance joined Erika Kirk on stage for a Turning Point tour stop at Ole Miss. The two shared a touching moment on stage, but some said the hug felt far too personal, with Erika even touching the back of JD’s head.

I do think the constant time on stage, the outfits, the seeming search for stardom and the spotlight, together with the constant crying but never seeming to be any actual tears, all does hit me as “odd”. But I’m curious to know what you think… Should she be home taking care of her two very young children instead of doing all these Tour Stops?
