During a recent campaign event in Philadelphia, JD Vance offered a brilliant rebuttal to a reporter who came after the vice presidential candidate, presumably for his past remarks about “childless cat ladies,” claiming he made remarks that were “offensive to millions of women.” In response, Vance pointed out that the state of America is what is truly offensive.
Vance addressed the reporter’s question, stating, “Now you asked about the remarks that I made that were you said that they were offensive to millions of women. Well, here, here’s, here’s what I’d say.” However, Vance was interrupted by a woman in the audience, who shouted, “This cat lady loves you!” Vance replied, “Thank you, ma’am.”
Vance continued, asserting that his past comment was simply an encouragement of pro-family sentiment in America while blasting the media for taking such offense to such an innocuous and sarcastic comment. He then addressed the real concerns that Americans have dealt with throughout the Biden-Harris administration, such as inflation and rampant illegal immigration.
“What I said is very simple: I think American families are good and government policy should be more pro-family. If the media wants to get offended about a sarcastic remark I made before I even ran for the Senate, then the media is entitled to get offended. You know what I’m offended by? That normal Americans can’t afford groceries, that Kamala Harris opened up the American southern border, and I’m offended that she wants to be the people’s president but cannot answer tough questions,” Vance said.
The Ohio senator continued, “That’s what I’m offended by, and I think that’s what most Americans are offended by, too. And I guess on that note, I should say thank you all for having me,” before he emphasized that the Trump-Vance campaign has “an incredible amount of momentum,” going into November.
JD Vance dismantled a liberal reporter, where he addressed a critical question from CNN’s Kaitlan Collins, who demanded answers about Trump’s allegations that Haitian migrants are “eating the dogs,” and “eating the cats” in Springfield, Ohio. Vance defended the former president, offering an epic rebuttal to Collins.
“Do you know what’s confirmed?” he said to Collins. “That a child was murdered by a Haitian migrant who had no right to be here. That local health services have been overwhelmed. That communicable diseases–like TB and HIV–have been on the rise. That local schools have struggled to keep up with newcomers who don’t know English. That rents have risen so fast that many Springfield families can’t afford to put a roof over their head.”
Vance further claimed, “If you’re a reporter, or an activist, who didn’t give a sh*t about these suffering Americans until yesterday, I have some advice: Spare your outrage for your fellow citizens suffering under Kamala Harris’s policies. Be outraged at yourself for letting this happen.”
Trump’s running mate has also maintained that, despite the lack of official evidence about pets being eaten in Springfield, his constituents have firsthand accounts of the alleged activity. “In the last several weeks, my office has received many inquiries from actual residents of Springfield who’ve said their neighbors’ pets or local wildlife were abducted by Haitian migrants. It’s possible, of course, that all of these rumors will turn out to be false,” he said.
