Vance Calls 'Childless Cat Ladies' Remark One of the Dumbest Things He's Said
HuffPost — Politics—Vice President JD Vance publicly acknowledged that his widely mocked 2021 comment attacking 'childless cat ladies' was a political mistake, calling it 'one of the dumbest things I ever said.' The admission is notable given how extensively the remark was weaponized against him during the 2024 campaign. Both The Hill and HuffPost covered the concession, with HuffPost noting Vance offered no broader apology to the people the comment targeted.
