Republican vice presidential nominee, Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, who has drawn widespread blowback over remarks targeting "childless cat ladies" previously attacked people without children in a series of emails and podcasts uncovered by CNN's KFile.
Vance in a clip from a conservative podcast recorded in November 2020 said that childless Americans, especially those of the “leadership class,” were "more sociopathic" and made the country “less mentally stable” than those with children. He added that the “most deranged” and “most psychotic” commentators on X/Twitter typically don’t have children.
