Jennifer Aniston blasted Trump’s running mate, Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) for his years old remarks about miserable “childless cat ladies” that he made in reference to Vice President Kamala Harris.

Aniston, 55, skewered Vance on her Instagram Stories on Wednesday, sharing the clip of him making the commentary during an interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson.

“I truly can’t believe that this is coming from a potential VP of the United States,” the “Friends” star snapped in response.

“‘All I can say is… Mr. Vance, I pray that your daughter is fortunate enough to bear children of her own one day.”

“I hope she will not need to turn to IVF as a second option,” Aniston added. “Because you are trying to take that away from her, too.”

Vance’s comments from 2021, which questioned Vice President Harris’ leadership due to her not having biological children, came back to haunt him this week.

During his Ohio Senate campaign, Vance, 39, told Fox News that “we are effectively run in this country via the Democrats,” referring to them as “a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made, and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too.”

He targeted the commentary at Harris, U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, and U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a New York Democrat, in his remarks.

“It’s just a basic fact – you look at Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, AOC – the entire future of the Democrats is controlled by people without children,” he pointed out.

“And how does it make any sense that we’ve turned our country over to people who don’t really have a direct stake in it?”

Vanceand his wife Usha Vance, 38, have three children under seven-years-old. While Harris, who has no biological children, became a stepmother to Douglas Emhoff two children – Cole, 29, and Ella, 25 – when they were married in 2014.

While Ocasio-Cortez is still childless, Buttigieg and his husband adopted infant twins in September 2021.
Aniston has been open about her fertility struggles and failed attempts to have a child, despite trying.

“The Morning Show” star, who was previously married to actors Brad Pitt and Justin Theroux, spoke with Allure in December 2022 about how she had tried to have children when she was younger.

“I would say my late 30s, 40s, I’d gone through really hard s***, and if it wasn’t for going through that, I would’ve never become who I was meant to be,” she told the magazine.

“That’s why I have such gratitude for all those s****y things,” she added. “Otherwise, I would’ve been stuck being this person that was so fearful, so nervous, so unsure of who they were. And now, I don’t f***ing care.”

She said that “the baby-making road” was very “challenging” while the media speculated about her failed marriages and lack of children for years.

“I was going through IVF, drinking Chinese teas, you name it,” Aniston concluded. “I was throwing everything at it. I would’ve given anything if someone had said to me, ‘Freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favor.’ You just don’t think it. So here I am today. The ship has sailed.”

Hillary Clinton also commented on the viral clip of Vance, sharing it in a Tuesday post social media post and mockingly noting, “what a normal, relatable guy who certainly doesn’t hate women having freedoms.”

Harris’ husband’s former and the mother of her two step-children defended Harris against the “childless cat lady” remark.

“These are baseless facts,” Kerstin Emhoff told CNN. “For over 10 years since Cole and Ella were teenagers, Kamala has been a co-parent with Doug and I.'”

“She is loving, nurturing, fiercely protective and always present,” she continued. “I love our blended family and am grateful to have her in it.”

Meanwhile, Vance said during an interview on The Charlie Kirk Show on Wednesday that a vote for Harris would be a vote for four more years of President Joe Biden’s failed agenda.

“I think we have to make a substantive argument that the Kamala Harris-Joe Biden agenda has failed for this country,” Vance told the titular host. “She’s going to double down on it. In fact…she’s much more liberal than even Joe Biden was.”

“So do we want four years even worse than the last four years? Or do we want the four years of President Trump’s leadership from 2016 to 2020?” he questioned.

“It’s not a hard contrast. We just have to make the argument.”

Kirk asked Vance if Harris replacing Biden has changed the election “from a messaging or tactical standpoint.”

The host also noted that Harris is “far more radical” and seems to be “completely indifferent to the suffering of native-born Americans, specifically in the Rust Belt, that have been suffering from an open border and opioid overdoses.”

“The contrast couldn’t be clearer, and that hasn’t changed. The issues couldn’t be clearer, and that hasn’t changed,” Vance retorted.

“The failed record of Joe Biden — the only person who bears as much responsibility for it as Joe Biden is his vice president,” the Ohio senator went on. “And so Kamala Harris can’t run away from that track record — it’s a bad track record.”

Vance said that Americans need to be “constantly” reminded that Harrris “failed as a vice president,” and the administration she belongs to have caused skyrocketing prices, a drug crisis, and a “wide-open border.”

“And we have to constantly remind people that she failed as vice president. Her administration led to higher prices on everything, from groceries to housing, a wide-open southern border, a drug crisis, and we need new leadership,” Vance stated.

“Whatever Democrat figurehead they want to put at the top of the ticket, we need to change direction from a policy perspective, and I think that argument will win the day for us,” he concluded.

The Harris campaign snapped back at Vance, saying that “every single American has a stake in this country’s future.”

“Ugly, personal attacks from J.D. Vance and Donald Trump are in line with their dangerous Project 2025 agenda to ban abortion, decimate our democracy, and gut Social Security,” campaign spokesperson James Singer said about a policy Trump has denied being affiliated with.

Vance’s spokesperson in turn said the Harris campaign making false accusations about Vance’s views, and pointed out that her political career is “littered with countless failures and disasters.”

“It’s well known that Senator Vance found success in life due in large part to the influence of strong female role models like his grandmother,” spokesperson Taylor Van Kirk retorted.
