Former President Donald Trump’s running mate, Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, is condemning comments from Gov. Andy Beshear, D-Ky. Vance posted
“What the hell is this,” Vance said in a post. “Why is @AndyBeshearKY wishing that a member of my family would get raped?!? What a disgusting person.”
Beshear’s remarks on Tuesday, Aug. 20, said that Vance could be more empathetic towards people advocating for access to abortion amid tragic circumstances if he the senator had to go through a similar ordeal.
The governors statement is likely in reference to Vance’s past statement where he viewed pregnancies from rape as “inconvenient.”
