Vice President JD Vance's family ski trip to Vermont's Sugarbush Resort took an unexpected turn when hundreds of pro-Ukraine protesters greeted them, calling Vance a "national disgrace" and "traitor." The protests, spanning half a mile, followed a heated White House exchange between Vance, President Trump, and Ukrainian President Zelensky where a mineral rights deal was scrapped. The protesters' signs ranged from accusations of Vance being "Nazi scum" to urging him to "go ski in Russia." While counter-protesters also appeared, Vance relocated from his planned accommodation due to the intensity of the demonstrations. The protests, initially planned to address concerns about Trump administration cuts, expanded to include broader issues like LGBTQ+ rights and immigration. Governor Phil Scott had earlier urged respect for Vance's family trip, but the protests highlight the intense public reaction to the White House dispute.
