JD #Vance says women who haven’t given birth like Kamala #Harris are “childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives,” and have “no direct stake” in America.
I saw a Dem woman without children sent out an email with pictures of her cats and got her best fund raising from it. Sometimes, the GOP is their own worse enemy.
Sometimes? They're usually their only enemy, have worked the refs so successfully that media is in the tank, and dems have generally been content bringing squirt guns to a nuke fight. Hopefully that is changing, seems to be so far, Harris going yard on these fascists. Keep it up please, more angry woman fire!
Someone pointed out that the preferred term is "Childfree." I don't care, actually-but it might raise hackles among women who wanted children but could not have them. Just saying I might have been wrong for the wording.
if the campaign were to actually release stuff like this it would be a good thing to consider and I understand how certain terms might be hurtful to some people. Thank you for calling that out!
Honestly, both are appropriate. There are those that made a conscious decision, others that wanted children and for many reasons couldn’t (and the pain of that is acute) and others that weren’t vested either way and it just happened that they didn’t have children (like me). In any case, it isn’t a crime and absolutely no one should be made to feel less than or unequal because of it. It’s none of anyone’s business!
But so many Republicans, Christian Nationalists and fundamentalists view it that way, which is why we have to come out fighting. It's not a crime, but they have made strides to make it one.
the MAGA could emulate Biden though. But will Trump ever admit he's too sick to continue? Based on age and health statistics it was always a possibility that neither Biden or Trump would be on the final ballot. (My spouse made me shut up about it..OCD is a horrible thing). So Vance could end up the candidate.
Vance is talking to mothers, in the hopes that many of them are conservative, and telling them: Kamala #Harris is different from you. She doesn't have your values.
They are scared they will lose women voters and trying to shepherd in their own.
