Women at DNC Share Views on JD Vance's Comments
- At the DNC, delegates were asked if they have cats or kids and their opinions on JD Vance.
- The study revealed that women at the DNC do not have a favorable view of JD Vance.
- JD Vance's comments about 'childless cat ladies' did not resonate well with the female audience at the convention.
In a notable moment from 2021, JD Vance, a prominent political figure and current running mate for Donald Trump, made headlines when he referred to America as being governed by “childless cat ladies” during an interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson. This controversial remark has lingered in the public consciousness, particularly among parents and pet owners, who have not forgotten the implications of his words. In light of Vance's comments, The Independent conducted an informal survey at the 2024 Democratic National Convention, engaging delegates and party members to gauge their opinions on Vance and his views on women. The survey specifically inquired whether participants had children, cats, both, or neither, aiming to understand the sentiment surrounding Vance's controversial statement. The findings from this informal study revealed a clear consensus among the respondents: there is a significant disapproval of JD Vance and his perspectives. Many delegates expressed their disdain for his comments, indicating that they felt marginalized by his characterization of women, particularly those who are childless or pet owners. Overall, the survey highlights a growing divide in political sentiment, particularly among Democratic party members, who appear to reject Vance's views and the implications they carry about women in society. This incident underscores the ongoing cultural and political tensions surrounding gender and family dynamics in contemporary America.
