MSNBC Guest Accuses JD Vance of Not Defending His ‘Indian’ Wife and ‘Mixed Race Children’ Amid GOP Group Chat Controversy
Liberal podcast host Jennifer Welch accused Vice President JD Vance of not defending his wife “of Indian descent” and “mixed race children” on MSNBC, Wednesday after a group of Young Republicans were caught making offensive jokes.
“Here’s two things about JD Vance. Number one, he used to say Trump is America’s Hitler. So he has regressed,” said Welch during an appearance on All In with Chris Hayes. “And then number two, he is married to a woman of Indian descent. He has mixed race children. So to all of the MAGA voters out there, if this man will not defend his wife and will not defend his kids, do you think he gives a crap about you or anything to do with you?”
She continued, “What I see with JD Vance and all of the people around Trump is the minute they capitulate to him, they give it just an inch, they completely morally collapse. Everybody that comes into his orbit becomes a worse person. Marco Rubio, JD Vance. I mean, I think Stephen Miller was probably born terrible, but he’s gotten worse and that’s how low that bar was.”
“The moral rot on display that we see, this is intentional. They are flexing the authoritarian muscle and they all have to make up for something because the strong man is frail, the strong man has cankles, he’s got bruises on his hands, he’s got dementia,” Welch concluded. “So now his acolytes are coming out acting like big tough guys to try to keep the facade up because there are fissures all over place in the MAGA movement right now.”
After Politico published nearly 3,000 pages from a leaked Young Republicans group chat, which showed participants making offensive jokes, Vance criticized the uproar among politicians and the media.
“This is far worse than anything said in a college group chat, and the guy who said it could become the AG of Virginia,” wrote Vance, attached to a screenshot of Democratic attorney general candidate Jay Jones expressing hope that a Republican’s children would die. “I refuse to join the pearl clutching when powerful people call for political violence.”
