'Trump is too old. You'll get Vance.' 2 [View all]

The No. 1 rule for VP picks is do no harm. Time to make JD Vance a bucket full of hurt for the Trump campaign.

On a 2020 Podcast, JD Vance Agreed With Host Who Said ‘The Whole Purpose of the Postmenopausal Female’ Is to Help Raise Kids

The childless cat ladies of America may have a new ally against Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) after newly resurfaced audio from a 2020 podcast revealed him agreeing with a host who declared that “the whole purpose of the postmenopausal female” was to help raise children.

Vance, recently tapped as former President Donald Trump’s running mate, was a guest on the April 29, 2020 episode of The Portal, hosted by Eric Weinstein, and the two discussed Vance’s life story and got into family issues.

The audio clip was flagged on The Platform Formerly Known as Twitter by Heartland Signal, the newsroom for Chicago-based progressive radio station WCPT 820 AM.

NEW VANCE AUDIO: In an interview from 2020, JD Vance agrees with a podcast host who says having grandmothers help raise children is “the whole purpose of the postmenopausal female.”

He also agrees when the host says grandparents helping raise children is a "weird, unadvertised feature of marrying an Indian woman."
