Letter to the Editor

Why does J. D. Vance assume that all childless married women have cats?  Surely in this United States, there are at least a few childless married dog ladies or parrot ladies, maybe even a gerbil lady or two. Oh, I forgot.  He’s anti-DEI (diversity, equality, inclusion).  One thing is for certain, though.  He doesn’t approve of childless married women, no matter what pets they have or don’t have.

He also doesn’t approve of women divorcing physically abusive men.  He believes they should have to stay in the marriage for the good of the children.  What’s a few black eyes or a broken arm or two along the way?  He also doesn’t believe in abortions for anyone pregnant from rape or incest, no matter how young.  According to him, the pregnancy is merely an inconvenience. 

He also disparages the work ethic of the working class.  In his book Hillbilly Elegy, he describes the men and women of this class as shiftless, undependable, and not too work brickle.  He also decries their sexual morality.  It’s all their out-of-wedlock babies, you see.

Do you really want this man a heartbeat away from the presidency?
