Chelsea Handler calls JD Vance 'hysterical' for his 'childless cat ladies' dig at Kamala Harris

LAS VEGAS, NEVADA: Comedian Chelsea Handler defended Vice President Kamala Harris against the infamous "childless cat ladies" jibe by Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance, on Sunday, July 28, reported the Daily Mail.

Vance reportedly made the remark during his interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson in 2021. The Ohio Senator had said, "We're effectively run in this country by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives... You look at Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, AOC, the entire future of the Democrats is controlled by people without children."

A clip from the interview recently went viral over social media and brought a late but severe backlash for Vance, as it offended celebs such as Jennifer Aniston into speaking out against him.

Chelsea Handler's response to JD Vance's remark

Chelsea Handler shared her response to JD's Vance remark in a video clip over social media platforms, along with the caption, "Childless Cat and Dog Ladies for Harris."

"Oh hey! As you might have heard, Donald Trump's running mate and future star of his own Dateline episode, JD Vance, is ruffling quite a few feathers this week," she said.

"Listen up you wingnut elegy, this country is still controlled by men in systems that were set up by men that are carefully crafted to continue to benefit men," Handler said as she called Vance out. "So to put it in women-hating terms you'll understand- you're being hysterical."

"But let's be clear, there's no correlation between childless people and the presidency. For example, our very first United States president, Mr George Washington, didn't have children. In fact, he had two step-children. That's right. Just like someone else I know," she continued, referring to Harris.

The Vice President has two step-children, Ella and Cole Emhoff, with her husband Doug Emhoff, noted the Daily Mail.

"And to your point about Kamala not being fit because she's not a 'mother,' I'd like to remind you that no president in the history of the United States has ever been a 'mother.'"

"But maybe if she had five kids with three different men, and a scandalous affair with a porn star and was convicted felon, that would be more palatable to Republican men," continued Handler, slamming GOP nominee Donald Trump in the process. "I mean, my god, are we tired, you sad Diet-Mountain-Dew-drinking-couch-humping-dolphin-porn-afficionado."

"All of us childless cat and dog ladies are going to go from childless and crushing it to childless and crushing you in November. And before you tell me he didn't really f**k a couch, spare me. I grew up in New Jersey in the '80s where everyone had a couch in their basement and I know a couch f**ker when I see one," she concluded.
