Former president Donald Trump's vice presidential pick, Senator JD Vance, came under fire over a resurfaced video from 2021 where he said the country was run by "childless cat ladies." In a recent appearance on The 'Megyn Kelly Show', he defended his earlier remark that "a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices they've made" were running the USA, "so they want to make the rest of the country miserable too." He had even mentioned Vice President Kamala Harris and Democratic Rep Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez while commenting. Vance's "childless cat ladies" remark also led several unmarried women to unite on social media platforms. Many shared funny reactions and memes besides criticism. Here are ten such hilarious reactions featuring annoyed dog ladies and the famous cat mother, Taylor Swift.
