'Very deranged idea': Report reveals Vance is doubling down on notorious campaign attack

Raw Story  

The New York Times' newly released full interview with Sen. J.D. When the New York Times asked Vance if he regretted making such statements — like suggesting "childless cat ladies" were supposedly forcing a progressive agenda on Americans — the "Hillbilly Elegy" author refused to take them back. "I think you see it sometimes in the political conversation, people saying, well, maybe we shouldn’t have kids because of climate change." Rather, he insisted that it was "very deranged" for Americans to choose to not want to bring children into the world due to the growing threat of climate change. "Doesn’t mean you can’t worry about climate change, but in the focus on childless cat ladies, we missed the substance of what I said."
