The Vice President-elect had social media totally weirded out after sharing himself and Trump edited into Norman Rockwell's famous 1943 Thanksgiving painting “Freedom From Want,” along with an electoral map superimposed over the turkey.

Vice President-elect JD Vance served up a bizarre Thanksgiving offering prime for roasting.

The Republican politician, who has served as Ohio's Junior Senator since 2023 and was picked by President-elect Donald Trump as his running mate in the 2024 election, honored Thanksgiving with a social media post featuring a meme of him and Trump.


Their faces were superimposed over Norman Rockwell's famous 1943 Thanksgiving painting called “Freedom From Want.”

We never asked for this, yet here we are.

Also known as I'll Be Home for Christmas, the famous painting depicts people from different generations gathered at the table for a holiday feast. The aproned matriarch serves a whole roasted turkey as the patriarch lovingly observes from the head of the table.

Vance swapped out the couple's faces with Trump as the patriarch and Vance as the matriarch, and instead of a turkey on the plate, it's the electoral map of the United States, dominated by Republicans.

People had thoughts.






Plenty of memes followed.

If Vance was trying to downplay his weird image, this wasn't helping.


Rockwell's Freedom From Want is the third of the Four Freedoms series of oil paintings by Rockwell inspired by Democratic President Franklin D. Roosevelt's 1941 State of the Union Address.

Created in 1942, the painting is considered among the American painter's finest works.

While Americans embraced the painting's themes of family, nostalgia, and patriotism during wartime, it didn't go over well across the Atlantic.

Europeans resented Freedom From Want because, for them, it wasn't exactly freedom from want. At the time, they were enduring the ravages of World War II and weren't indulging in the overabundance of food depicted in the painting.

Earlier in the day, Vance posted his message to Americans on Thanksgiving, writing:

"Happy Thanksgiving everyone! Despite our challenges, we remain the greatest nation in the world, and I'm very grateful for it--and for all of you!"
