Fox News Host Tries to Corner J.D. Vance About Viral Past Comment, He Proves Why He's the Right Choice for VP
Red State ^ | 07/29/2024 | Levon Satamian

Since the Republican National Convention, where Ohio Senator JD Vance was selected as former President Trump's vice presidential running mate, the mainstream media has been relentless in its efforts to tarnish Vance's reputation. 

From labeling him as "weird" to casting him in a negative light, media personalities and Democrat politicians alike have consistently worked to portray Vance as the antagonist in this political narrative. This campaign against Vance seems to be an orchestrated attempt to undermine his credibility, which only goes to show they are frightened that he will relate to voters in Rust Belt states and convince undecided voters to vote for the Trump-Vance ticket.

Now, Fox News host and former South Carolina congressman Trey Gowdy is jumping on the train. Vance was scheduled to appear on Gowdy's show, and prior to the interview, Gowdy dedicated his opening monologue about folks without children who are "some of the finest people" he knows. 

And it’s not just Catholic nuns. Some of the finest people I know don’t have children. Teachers and guidance counselors and lawyers and doctors, and they love other people’s children enough to teach and guide and protect and minister to them. Some people choose not to have children. Others desperately want them, but they can’t.

The American people are forgiving, if we ask.

He brought on Vance right after his monologue, and Vance responded by saying:

If you look at what the left has done, they have radically taken this out of context and, in fact, aggressively lied about what I’ve said. The left has increasingly become explicitly antichild and antifamily. They’ve encouraged young families not to have children at all because of concerns over climate change.

Gowdy attempted to trap Vance by pointing out that numerous Americans, including former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Senator Tim Scott from South Carolina, and Founding Father George Washington never had biological children. By highlighting these people, Gowdy aimed to challenge Vance's views on the importance of family structure, suggesting that childlessness does not diminish one's ability to serve the country effectively or possess strong leadership qualities. This rhetorical move was intended to put Vance on the defensive and question the validity of his stance on the matter.

Here is a shocker: Vance agreed with Gowdy's assessment because the Fox News host completely missed the point of what Vance was saying in 2021 or purposely misinterpreted it. 

Vance said:

Vance agreed with Gowdy’s assessment that “direct offspring are not necessary to be fully invested in the future of this country,” but went on to say being a parent “really does transform your perspective.”

“So this is not a criticism, and was never a criticism, of everybody without children. That is a lie of the left. It is a criticism of the increasingly antiparent and antichild attitude of the left,” Vance said.

It's important to note that Gowdy wanted Tim Scott to become Trump's VP nominee.

Vance concluded by telling Gowdy:

"I’m going to keep on calling that out, because I think it’s important for parents to have a voice,” he said. “I’m proud to be on the ticket with President Trump, a real defender of parents and families."

No matter who Trump chose as VP, the media would have brought up something from the past and pinned it against them. But Vance has handled the situation the right way and shows that he is the fighter that's needed.

Gowdy is a preening capon- a neutered rooster. Din nothing while he had the chance in Congress. Another Paul Ryan buddy.

Critics need to be careful when criticizing a professional author who’s sold millions of his personal-experience book.

Did you notice that Hume couldn't name one specific thing that Sarah Palin did or said that cost McCain the election?

Because it's the other way around - McCain cost Palin the election.

I like Tim Scott too but he’s just too nice. I realize what the left would go to Tim Scott who is not the street fighter JD is.

No matter who Trump chose as VP, the media would have brought up something from the past and pinned it against them.

And if they can't find something, they'll twist something or just flat out make it up.

Trey Gowdy was a prosecutor and trial lawyer. He will take the opposite side just for pure argument. He is very good in a court room and was good questioning people in congressional hearings. Google some of his court room cases as a prosecutor, he really is quite good at that, that is what he does.
