Should JD Vance be in trouble for comments in 2021 about ‘childless cat ladies’?
American Thinker ^ | 07/26/2024 | Andrea Widburg

Leftist women are getting their knickers in a twist about how JD Vance, in 2021, described Kamala Harris and other childless leftist women. The fact is that Vance’s colorful language accurately describes a real and troubling phenomenon amongst a certain segment of childless women (not I hasten to add, all childless women) in America.

Soon after Vance announced his candidacy for the Ohio Senate stated during a speech that “the childless left” isn’t committed to America’s future because, without offspring, leftists have no direct stake in the future. In response to Tucker Carlson’s inquiries, Vance expanded on what he meant by that observation:

We’re effectively run in this country via the Democrats, via our corporate oligarchs, by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made, and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too.

And it’s just a basic fact. You look, Kamala Harris. Pete Buttigieg, AOC—the entire future of the Democrats is controlled by people without children. And how does it make any sense that we’ve turned our country over to people who don’t really have a direct stake in it?

I just wanted to ask that question and propose that, maybe, if we want a healthy ruling class in this country, we should invest more, we should vote more, we should support more people who actually have kids because those are the people who ultimately have a more direct stake in the future of this country.

The obvious suspects—the leftist childless cat ladies who chose careers over having children—were outraged. A Google search revealed that among those most outraged was actress Jennifer Aniston (55 years old), a Democrat, Aniston’s outrage even made The Hill:

I checked on Wikipedia:

Out of 14 Democrat women in the U.S. Senate, 10 (including Elizabeth Warren) have children.

Most of the Democrat women in the House of Representatives have children. Some have many children. A couple of them have five. One has seven.

Thank goodness-I thought you might have been sending me a link to a video where Vance was backing down…and there is nothing that infuriates me more than Republicans who either back down or refuse to defend themselves. (When they aren’t wrong, of course.)

I agree wholly with his point of view on this.

And if it stings, hurts, or even irritates them, I am all onboard.

It’s not feminist hogwash. Its a rude presentation of facts.

And no, I’m not watching your video. You must think I have no idea what is going on so that I would need to.

People wonder why women for Democrats—at least they are not stupid enough to openly insult their base.

Thanks for refuting it, point by point!

You think you made profound points that deserve intellectual responses. I think my response to you just about covers it.

Ladies who keep cats (instead of kids).

“Crazy” cat ladies will have upwards of 5-6 at a time.

I’ve kept it to 1-3 at a time, so I am only half-crazy.

I think you are childish and selfish. I am also very sorry for you.

I’m childish and selfish??? You don’t even know me, which makes your comments to me childish. You feel sorry for me, ok. Again, you don’t even know me.
Dude, you need therapy.

Hate to break it to you but I am a female and I don’t think with my uterus.

There are more important things than getting butthurt over that comment. I found it kind of humorous because it describes some ladies I know.

You need to take your democrat supporting behind on over to the DUmp because they care a whole lot about women. Particularly women who wanna kill their unborn children.

Ask any veterinarian if Vance doesn’t have a cogent argument.

#1 Jennifer is a cat lady. She likes getting married and having many boyfriends. She just does not like a stable relationship. Always moving on to the next guy.
