Fake Baby MSNBC Staffer Makes Outrageous Claim About GOP VP Candidate JD Vance Live On Air
JD Vance has hit out at an MSNBC political analyst who claimed he just wants “more white children” in the US and that his criticism of Democratic family policy as a “childless cat lady” was “racist”.
Contributor Molly Jong-Fast, who has since had her X account blocked, said on Morning Joe that Vance’s perspective is authoritarian and racist.
“The interesting thing is that this natalism comes from an authoritarian manual, right?” Jong-Fast said in recently discovered comments.
“That there should be more white kids, right? That’s the idea – that this is about the Great Replacement Theory of racism, right?”
“This is what this is. So don’t get it wrong, because he wants more kids. He wants some kind of racist thing.”
Jong-Fast is the daughter of prominent feminist author Erica Jong, whose novel Fear of Flying is considered a feminist classic. Her father, Jonathan Fast, is also an author.
Senator Vance’s campaign was quick to criticize the host for his “bad comment.”
MSNBC contributor Molly Jong-Fast says Sen. JD Vance’s comments about a ‘childless cat lady’ are racist because she claims he just wants more ‘white children’ in the US
“These disgusting attacks are a reminder that the left-wing media will do everything in its power to smear any Republican they perceive as a threat to their radical agenda,” Vance spokesman William Martin told DailyMail.com.
The comments are all the more suspicious because the vice presidential candidate is the father of three mixed-race children.
The Ohio senator’s wife, Usha, is the daughter of Indian immigrants.
“Senator Vance and his wife Usha have three beautiful mixed-race children,” he continued.
“It is because of horrific attacks like this that most Americans have lost confidence in the mainstream media to report the news honestly.”
“MSNBC should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this nonsense to air on their network.”
MSNBC host Jonathan Lemire noted that statistics show more Americans are choosing not to have children and that repeating the 2021 comments has caused Vance “political damage.”
“JD Vance wants only white children in America so badly that she married a colored woman and had mixed children,” one X user wrote in response to a clip of the exchange.
Tucker Carlson biographer Chadwick Moore wrote on X: “Wacko on MSNBC says JD Vance wants more ‘white kids.’ I assume that’s why he married an Indian woman and had mixed kids?”
And Cody Sargent, communications director at Heritage Action, sarcastically noted that Jong-Fast’s claim “is likely news to Senator Vance’s wife, Usha, a first-generation Indian-American, and their biracial children.”
The full attack on Vance stems from a 2021 interview with then-Fox News host Tucker Carlson.
“We’re basically run in this country by the Democrats, by our corporate oligarchs, and by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are unhappy with their own lives and the choices they’ve made, and who want to make the rest of the country unhappy too,” he said at the time.
“How is it possible that we hand over our country to people who actually have no direct interest in it?” he added.
Vance is married to Usha, the daughter of Indian immigrants. They have three biracial children together: Ewan, 6, Vivek, 4, and Mirabel, 2
Vance has three mixed-race children: Ewan, 6, Vivek, 4, and Mirabel, 2. He has a wife, Usha, whom he met when they attended Yale together.
Trump defends his running mate, claiming he is not concerned about his comments about “childless cat ladies” because it proves he has “family values.”
“He loves family. It’s very important to him,” Trump told Fox host Laura Ingraham during an interview that aired Monday night.
“He grew up in a very interesting family situation. And he believes that family is a good thing,” Trump added of Vance. “And I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that statement.”
