After Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) caught flak for controversial comments about “childless cat ladies,” former President Donald Trump’s campaign is hitting back with a spirited defense. 

“The fact of the matter is, it’s been blatantly taken out of context,” Trump campaign advisor Chris LaCivita said during a Brian Kilmeade Show segment that aired on Friday. Asked if the Trump campaign was against “childless women,” Lacivita retorted, “No, that’s absurd. It’s absolutely absurd.”
