JD Vance, the Vice President of the United States, has become a viral phenomenon on social media, especially on X, where users have started creating and sharing memes about his edited face.
These memes, which initially showed Vance as a grotesque caricature, have evolved and multiplied, with versions depicting him as a baby, a monster, or even an Oompa-Loompa from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Vance's memes went viral after an intense exchange at the White House between Vance, President Donald Trump, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.
During this meeting, Vance asked Zelenskiy if he had "thanked once" for the United States' support to Ukraine, which was interpreted as an unusual statement and triggered a flood of memes on social media.
The phenomenon began with an edit by Republican Congressman Mike Collins, who modified an official photo of Vance to make him look more attractive, in the style of a "chad" meme.
From there, X users replied by creating versions of Vance with exaggerated features, such as a child version holding a pacifier or an inflated and distorted image of his face.
These images became a recurring theme, with meme editors continuously improving the quality of the modifications, creating even stranger and more surreal versions of Vance.
