Hundreds of protesters gathered in Vermont on Saturday to visit the local ski resort, with Vice President JD Vance visiting the local ski resort within 24 hours of an explosive exchange with Ukrainian President Voldimir Zelensky.
Vance, who brought his family to the Sugarbush Resort in Warren, Vermont, was greeted on Saturday by a half-mile gauntlet of protesters holding the Procrane sign. It seemed there were hundreds of people in the crowd.
Protesters had signs calling Vance a “Nazi Scum,” accusing him of being a “traitor,” and said they “go skiing in Russia.”
Other signs said, “Trump is serving Putin,” “Theocracy is not free,” and “Stay with Ukraine.”
However, not all Green Mountain State skiers were upset by Vance's visit, and one local skier complained about the Fox News Digital demonstration.
“The people who protest against Vance are the presence of f-horse,” the skier said.
Fox News was also told Vance, and his family had planned to stay at a four-star inn near the resort, but after seeing Ruckus they moved to a private location.
“The people who protest against Vance are the presence of f-horse,” said the local skier.
Vance and his family later skied on one side of the mountain to avoid the crowd, but protesters gathered there too.
The demonstration came within a day of a tense discussion between Vance and Zelensky at the White House. This began when Ukrainian leaders began when President Trump balked to sign a mineral rights trade that he said would pave the way for peace deals.
“Mr. I think it would be rude to see the President in his respect and come to the oval office to try and litigate this in front of the American media,” Vance told Zelensky. “Right now, you're having talent issues, so you're all going around and forcing the draft to the frontline. We should thank the President for trying to end this conflict.”
Vance then hinted that Zelensky, who was visiting Washington, DC, had asked him again, ungrateful to sign the rare earth mineral contract that had since been dropped, and that he had said “thank you” for the whole meeting.”
“You went to Pennsylvania and campaigned for the opposition in October. I would like to offer you a thank you to the president who is trying to save the United States and your country,” the former Ohio Senator said.
The Ukrainian leader replied that Vance was speaking “loud” before President Donald Trump jumped in to support him, telling Zelensky that his country was “in trouble.”
Fox News Digital reached out to the White House and Sugar Bush Resort for comment.
