Internet warns JD Vance after video resurfaces implying Kamala Harris is childless cat lady

In the days after Sen. JD Vance completed the Republican presidential ticket and Vice President Kamala Harris moved to the top spot on the Democratic ticket, a video of Vance implying Harris is a miserable, childless cat lady resurfaced online.

Vance appeared on Fox News' "Tucker Carlson Tonight" in July 2021 while he was running for Ohio's U.S. Senate seat. The video shared by the editor-in-chief of the pro-democracy MeidasTouch Network has more than 18 million views on X less than 24 hours after posting.

Vance also argued in the interview that people without children don't have a "direct stake" in the future of this country.

Many self-proclaimed cat ladies have shared the video, ridiculing Vance's stance and affirming their interest in voting.

Others online warned that his comments might grab the attention of one powerful cat lady: Taylor Swift, who has three cats and proudly posts about them on social media.

Carlson brought Vance on to talk about his stance on the "childless left," as Vance was ramping up his campaign for his first political term as Ohio's senator.

The video shows Carlson welcome Vance on the show and asks him to explain his stance.

“We are effectively run in this country … by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made, and so they wanna make the rest of the country miserable, too,” Vance answers. "It's just a basic fact. You look at Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, AOC (Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez), the entire future of the Democrats is controlled by people without children."

Harris has two stepchildren with her husband, Second Gentleman Douglas Emhoff. Transportation Secretary Buttigieg and husband Chasten welcomed twins weeks after Vance's interview.

Vance argued that people with children have a "direct stake" in the future of the country, and therefore are more worthy of votes and support.

Vance's office did not immediately respond to request for further comment.
