JD Vance ain't from here' - KY Governor Andy Beshear goes after Trump's running mate for views on Appalachia, abortion
WHAS 11 - ABC ^ | 7/22/24 | Jay Skebba

Posted on 07/22/2024 11:38:25 AM PDT by CondoleezzaProtege

Beshear appeared on MSNBC's Morning Joe Monday morning and used his endorsement of Harris to criticize Vance.

"Let me just tell you; JD Vance ain't from here," Beshear said. "The nerve that he has to call the people of Kentucky, of eastern Kentucky, 'lazy.' These are the hardworking coal miners that powered the industrial revolution, that created the strongest middle class the world has ever seen. They powered us through two world wars. We should be thanking them, not calling them lazy. So today was an opportunity to support the vice president, but also to stand up for my people. Nobody calls us names, especially not those who have worked for the betterment of this country."

"This is a person who visited Kentucky during the summers or came for funerals or reunions, and he wants to judge us," he said. "[Vance] tries to judge eastern Kentuckians. This guy who visits every now and then is going to call us lazy? That's offensive to me and it's my job to stand up for fellow Kentuckians. That is not somebody who should be vice president who's going to look down at our people."

Beshear also took issue Monday with Vance's views on women and abortion.

Like many Democrats, Beshear pounced on those comments.

"JD Vance calls pregnancy arising from rape 'inconvenient.' No, it's just plain wrong," Beshear said. "He suggests women should stay in abusive relationships. A domestic abuser is not a man, he's a monster. No one should support anyone having to stay in those relationships." In 2022, Vance suggested women in violent marriages shouldn't necessarily seek a divorce. Last week, Vance spoke with Sean Hannity and clarified his comments, and said his words were being twisted.

Beshear touted Harris' experience as a prosecutor who put away many abusers.

Kamala is not Constitutionally eligible, so you might want to move cautiously down this road.

Cut Beshear some slack.

Cooking meth is hard and dangerous work. Don’t call them lazy.

They really need a new playbook. This one is older than the Appalachian mountains.

We’ve been down that road before and apparently, not enough folks cared. Butt, Andy thinks he’s v.p. material so suckin’ up will NOT be a problem.

Andy Beshear is sending out signals that he wants to play ball with the deep state and the warmongers, eager to be their bitch.

We should be thanking them [coal miners], not destroying their industry.

End the War on Coal!

Beshear may appeal to dipshit women in Kentucky, just like other retarded women who like NewScum, but in the end, it will make no difference come November.

Keep the efforts intense and bury the dems.

Obama wasn’t from Chicago, Illinois either, but he managed to be elected U.S. Senator and then President from that State. Not to mention the fact that his father wasn’t a natural born citizen, but a citizen of Kenya.

Jackson Kentucky is in Eastern Kentucky. I literally wore out my Volvo station wagon visiting my customers and job sites in the area way, way back there.

Last Saturday we watched “Hillbilly Legacy” om Net Flix. It is the J.D. Vance autobiographical production describing his early years in Kentucky and Ohio.

I recommend as strongly as I can that folks here watch that movie. I will go so far as to say you should take out a trial Net Flix subscription that can be cancelled

Do it!!
