The photos, which caused a stir online, were posted on X by Matt Bernstein with the caption, “New: I have obtained a photo of JD Vance in drag while at Yale Law School.” The authenticity was confirmed by Travis Whitfill, who provided the images, stating, “This was taken in 2012… A classmate took the photo and sent it to me.”
Public Reactions Vary
As expected, the reactions poured in. One person commented, “Ladies and gentlemen, a picture of JD Vance in drag while attending Yale Law School. I don’t share this to shame those who do drag, but rather to shame those who attack drag while having a history of enjoying the art form themselves.” Another added, “Feelin’ cute. Might run for Vice President later.” A third remarked, “Don’t call JD Vance weird because he wore drag. Call him a hypocrite and a bigot for demonizing others who wear drag.”
Santos Defends Vance
Not everyone criticized Vance. Republican U.S. Representative George Santos from New York defended him, stating that the photos were more of a goofy costume from a college party than actual drag. He told TMZ, “To call that drag is disingenuous, and I think most guys at some point have played around with gender-bending costumes. Couples do it all the time—wives dress as men, husbands as women. It’s definitely not drag.”
