Senator JD Vance lashed out at Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear for wishing a family member to become pregnant through rape.
The Republican vice presidential candidate slammed Beshear for the “disgusting” comment he made the night after he spoke about protecting abortion rights on the first night of the Democratic National Convention.
“Let him go through this,” Beshear said Tuesday morning on MSNBC.
Vance responded to X with, “What the hell is this?”
“Why would Andy Beshear wish for a member of my family to be raped?!?” he asked, adding, “What a disgusting person.”
Senator JD Vance called Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear ‘disgusting’ for wishing he could witness a family member getting pregnant from rape
Beshear was the keynote speaker at the first session of Congress on Monday, speaking about protecting access to abortion.
He spoke after three different stories were shared about women who had to terminate their pregnancies for different reasons.
A woman, Hadley Duvall, spoke about her pregnancy at age 12, after years of sexual abuse by her stepfather.
“Trump calls abortion bans across the country a beautiful thing. What’s so beautiful about a child having to carry her parents’ child?” Duvall said Monday onstage at the United Center.
