A number of conservative women have criticized Donald Trump's running mate, Senator JD Vance after his "childless cat ladies" comment reemerged.
The Ohio Republican has continued to receive backlash after remarks he made during a July 2021 appearance on Fox News' Tucker Carlson Tonight were shared online earlier this week. Vance said the Democratic Party was being led by people who did not have a "direct stake" in the future of the country because they didn't have children.
In his criticism, Vance mentioned Vice President Kamala Harris, who has two stepchildren through her husband, Doug Emhoff. He also mentioned New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, who has since adopted twins with his husband, Chasten Buttigieg.
"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," Vance said, adding, "You look at 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."
Since Vance's comments resurfaced, conservative women have spoken out against them, suggesting the remarks could damaged Trump's 2024 election hopes, given how important the female vote is to the GOP ticket.
