J.D. Vance Takes Another Stab at Cleaning Up His ‘Cat Ladies’ Rant
Donald Trump’s running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), continued to play clean-up Sunday evening after a series of comments resurfaced in which he criticized those without children as insufficiently invested in the future of America and called Democratic politicians a “bunch of childless cat ladies with miserable lives.”
Vance appeared on Fox News’ Sunday Night in America With Trey Gowdy to address the controversy, with Gowdy himself saying he’s been contacted by many people who were “disappointed” in the senator’s comments.
In response, Vance claimed his comments were taken out of context and that he simply meant to criticize Democrats for their rhetoric toward parents. He specifically pointed to another resurfaced interview in which Kamala Harris, the presumptive Democratic nominee, said one of the things Americans are forced to consider when deciding to have children is the way climate change may impact their lives.
