"On Thursday, Vance took to X to respond to a clip of Reid discussing racism in the United States. The original video was taken in March, but was reposted by a conservative social media account this week. In the talk, Reid discusses that her parents got a rude awakening after immigrating to the United States. My mother got the rude awakening, like, oh, it's racist here, that's weird, she said, adding that her mother realized this was not a land of opportunity for Black people."
"Vance responded to the March clip by telling Reid, who was fired from MSNBC in a network shakeup in February, to show a little gratitude. Joy Reid has had such a good life in this country. It's been overwhelmingly kind and gracious to her. She is far wealthier than most. Yet she oozes with contempt. My honest, non-trolling advice to Joy Reid is that you'd be a much happier person if you showed a little gratitude https://t.co/GCl6nTKXZg JD Vance (@JDVance) October 2, 2025"
JD Vance posted on X in response to a clip of Joy Reid addressing racism and her parents' experience after immigrating to the United States. Reid said her mother 'got the rude awakening' and realized the U.S. was not a land of opportunity for Black people. Vance wrote that Reid 'has had such a good life' in the country, called her wealthy, accused her of oozing contempt, and advised she would be happier if she showed gratitude. The clip came from a March talk with Ta-Nehisi Coates at Xavier University. Reid was fired from MSNBC in February, and she and Vance have publicly feuded, including over Reid's remark about his Yale admission.
