The most ironic part about him advocating for grandparents to help take care of kids is this coastal elitist striver COULDN'T RUN AWAY FROM HIS MIDWEST FAMILY fast enough to live in California and now in the Beltway.

Most "post menopausal" females have to work until they are 70. They got no time to take care of their grandkids full time.

Also it's not the sole purpose of post menopausal women and is pretty elitist because most people are forced to choose work over staying with a child.

If he didn't mean to be discussing this as the sole purpose of the post-menopausal female, then he could have tried not calling it the sole purpose of the post-menopausal female. At some point you have to believe what he actually says.

You'll save a lot on dental bills with those old crones. Just feed them mush -- those baby-carrying arms still work, amirite?

Does he refer to his mother this way? Will he refer to his wife this way when she hits that stage? Weirdo.

He gives me incel vibes.

He hates his mother and deems her unfit. He has no respect for his wife. She’s just a convenient vessel to carry his seed and raise them to adulthood.

I do too. Totally.

I would also like to point out that this audio is clearly edited... who knows what is spliced or missing. And, it is an article from Salon, so that makes it even more questionable.
Having said that, if advocating for having a grandparent assist with the care of a newborn infant is misogynistic, call me a misogynist. I like when he pointed out that she could have just continued working and given some of her salary to help them out, but she chose to help with the care itself.
And, I say this as someone who is currently in this exact position.... and I'm not Indian. A grandmother who is lucky enough to help with the care of her grandchild during the critical first years of development. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.

So are you saying that the government should mandate that all employees get a 1 year sabbatical for childcare? I’ve never seen that as a Republican proposal…

Hot damn would be awesome!

Why do these people have difficulty using the noun woman instead of the adjective female when discussing women?

It’s WOMEN, JD. Go ahead and try to say it.

100% an incel until he met his wife in his late 20s, a match arranged by their creepy right wing gatekeeper professors.

His wife must have some serious issues to consent to a relationship with this POS.

I wonder how his mother-in-law will vote? And what family holiday dinners will be like going forward.

As for his wife, I think she’s worked hard to get Vance this far, and probably wholeheartedly supports most of it, although it can’t be winning her points with her suburban neighbors. I do think, though, that this might not be the first relationship where a spouse reveals who they really are after marriage and kids. I’ve wondered before why Usha quit her job instead of taking a leave of absence until after the election results were in.

Yes and yes but probably not to her face.

He really does ooze incel.

The main value of his wife is eventually going to be just taking care of grandchildren.

Do you still give dental care to women who don't need their teeth anymore?
