Columbus, OH – In a surprising twist, JD Vance’s wife has stepped forward to clarify her husband’s recent controversial comments about women who don’t have children. According to her, Vance’s remarks were not aimed at women who are unable to have children, but rather a specific subset of women he believes are deserving of criticism.

“When JD was talking about women who don’t have children, he didn’t mean to offend those who can’t have children due to medical reasons,” she explained. “He only meant to insult those who are too ugly to have children, those who are weird lesbians, or those dumb women who choose to have careers instead of raising a family.”

Vance, who has a history of making provocative statements, found himself in hot water once again after suggesting that women who don’t have children are somehow failing society. The backlash was swift and fierce, with many accusing him of being insensitive to the struggles of women facing infertility.

However, his wife was quick to defend him. “People are always so quick to judge JD,” she lamented. “They don’t understand his true intentions. He wasn’t talking about women who physically can’t have children. He was talking about those who are, well, just undesirable or making poor life choices.”

In a follow-up statement, Vance doubled down on his wife’s clarification. “I stand by what I said. Women who choose not to have children because they’re too focused on their careers or because they have alternative lifestyles are the real problem. We need to get back to traditional values,” he said, looking sternly into the camera.

Social media erupted with reactions to Vance’s comments, with many pointing out the absurdity of his wife’s “clarification.” Twitter user @FeministWarrior wrote, “So according to JD Vance, if you’re a woman who doesn’t have children, you’re either too ugly, a lesbian, or stupid? This is 2024, not 1924!”

Meanwhile, others attempted to find humor in the situation. “I’m just relieved to know that my childless state is because I’m a successful career woman and not because of my looks. Thanks, JD!” tweeted @BossLady123.

Political analysts are divided on whether this latest controversy will hurt Vance’s career or simply add to his already colorful reputation. Some believe his base will rally around him, appreciating his “no-nonsense” approach to societal issues.

“It’s classic Vance,” said political commentator Jane Doe. “He says what he thinks, regardless of how offensive or outlandish it might be. And for some voters, that’s exactly what they love about him.”

As the dust settles, one thing is clear: JD Vance’s unique brand of commentary isn’t going anywhere, and neither is the backlash that inevitably follows.
