It wasn’t a joke. This is something he obviously seriously believes. He is repulsed by any woman who has not given birth and has been crusading against them for years:
GOP vice presidential candidate JD Vance in 2021 made yet more disparaging comments about people without children, this time turning his ire to teachers.
Part of Vance’s remarks were resurfaced on Tuesday by Heartland Signal, a digital outlet based in Chicago. NBC News later reviewed and shared video of the entire event.
During a forum for Republican Senate candidates in Ohio hosted by the Center for Christian Virtue in October 2021, Vance weighed in on the question of how to make schools more responsive to parents.
Vance claimed the left wants “to control what our children learn.”
“I think our conservative idea is that parents and family should determine what children learn, what values they are brought up with,” he said.
Vance went on to call out Randi Weingarten, the president of the American Federation of Teachers, accusing her of trying to “brainwash” children while not having “a single child.”
“So many of the leaders of the left, and I hate to be so personal about this, but they’re people without kids trying to brainwash the minds of our children. That really disorients me,” Vance said.
“Weingarten, who’s the head of the most powerful teaching union in the country, she doesn’t have a single child,” he added. “If she wants to brainwash and destroy the minds of children, she should have some of her own and leave ours the hell alone.”

Vance’s spokesperson told NBC News the Ohio senator will continue speaking out in defense of children.
“There is no bigger threat to American children than the left wing indoctrination being peddled in our schools by radicals like Randi Weingarten, with the support of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz,” Taylor Van Kirk said.
I’m disturbed and disoriented that this weirdo freak is on a presidential ticket and could easily become president someday.
