Vice President JD Vance was roasted on social media for "breaking" The Ohio State University football team's national championship trophy, but not before taking a shot at himself first.
"I didn’t want anyone after Ohio State to get the trophy so I decided to break it," Vance posted to social media.
Vance, a graduate of Ohio State, fumbled the football team's national championship trophy during a meet and greet with President Trump at the White House on Monday.

Florida journalist Eric Daugherty reported, "OOPS! Vice President J.D. Vance goes to pick up the National Championship Trophy during a White House celebration - it completely collapses in 2 and falls out of his hand."
"JD Vance just broke apart the College Football Playoff National Championship trophy on live television," posted political commentator Brian Tyler Cohen.
Left-leaning Patriot Takes saw little humor in the situation, posting, "How embarrassing. Ohio State alumnus JD Vance broke Ohio State’s trophy," while MeidasTouch posted, "YIKES: The College Football Playoff National Championship trophy completely falls apart as JD Vance picks it up. A metaphor for this disastrous administration."
"On MSNBC and CNN tonight they’ll claim you broke the trophy so no minorities could ever hold it again," quipped comedian Tim Young.
Senior Editor Anna Bower couldn't seem to believe her eyes, writing, "Did…did JD Vance just break the national championship trophy?"
MAGA commentator David J. Freeman posted, "@JDVance broke the National Championship trophy. LOL," while quite a few MAGA supporters, including conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer asked, "Was the trophy built in China?"
But reporter Philip Melanchthon Wegmann put that theory to rest. "The trophy was made in America by UAP Polich Tallix in New York," he posted. "The award is two separate pieces--the trophy and the base with the idea being that the trophy is what's held aloft, not the base."
