Stunning Images of JD Vance's Arrival on Nantucket As Leftists Commence With the Meltdowns

Much like President Donald Trump, JD Vance sure has a way of triggering his woketivist critics in ways that truly demonstrate how disturbingly deep the Vance Derangement Syndrome cuts.

We saw this, for instance, barely a week ago, when Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) took cheap shots at the vice president and his young family as they visited Disneyland in California, apparently not realizing that a big reason they were in the Golden State in the first place was the fact that Vance's in-laws live there.

Newsom's pettiness prompted the Very Online Left to lose their minds (in fairness, however, it doesn't take much to make that happen) over the visit, with others applauding the boobirds in the park who jeered the VP, Second Lady Usha Vance, and their children because the kids supposedly need to "know now what their father is about."

On Tuesday, Vance, who is the RNC's finance chairman, arrived in Nantucket ahead of a GOP fundraiser that will be held on the island, where he will, of course, be the featured speaker.

Video of his arrival at Nantucket Memorial Airport was nothing short of stunning:

The lead-up to Vance flying in was pretty amazing to watch as well:

Naturally, leftist meltdowns are already commencing, with the "Cats on the Couch" Instagram account going full metal VDS with their plans to protest Vance's trip:

And some Massachusetts residents, like Amanda McGonigle, who runs the Instagram account @catsonacouch, are not too happy about it.
"You may have heard that we have plenty of ideas for 'good trouble' planned," McGonigle, who has amassed over 1 million Instagram followers, said in a video on her page.
She is hosting a protest with Massachusetts 50501, Indivisible Nantucket, Indivisible Upper Cape, Mid Cape Indivisible, and Cape Cod Women for Change.
[...]
McGonigle's Instagram account itself is a mixture of cat photo carousels and political commentary focusing on Vance.

Today VP Vance will be in Nantucket for a fundraiser. This childless cat lady instagram account is planning a protest on the island of Nantucket to disrupt it.

This is the republican opposition, crazed liberal white woman. The barrier to vote in this country is too low. pic.twitter.com/BE93Ame8Mu

Presumably, Ms. Cats on a Couch knows she's essentially proving Vance's point about cat ladies, right?

In any event, there was also this:

I doubt Vance will lose a second of sleep over the "protesters," but the rest of us appreciate the amusement they bring all the same.
