US kamala harris Sarah Huckabee sanders US elections
Sarah Huckabee Sanders sneered at Kamala Harris for not having children and of all the comebacks, this one hit hardest
It’s been a while now since Donald Trump’s running mate JD Vance mocked women who don’t have biological children and it’s fair to say it didn’t end well for him, it didn’t end well at all.
But that hasn’t stopped Trump’s former press secretary and Arkansas governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders – you remember – sneering at Kamala Harris for not having children of her own (she does, in fact, have two step children)/
This is what Sanders had to say to Republican devotees at a Trump town hall.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders follows in Vance's footsteps and hits VP Harris for not having biological children. Disgusting.

And it got no end of totally on-point responses …
Sarah Huckabee Sanders does not behave is if she's especially humble. Boasting & being competitive about being humble is not humility.

Nothing says "humility" like claiming that God prefers you to someone else.

This is so rude and awful. I can't imagine mocking a woman for her lack of children… or why the GOP thinks this is a good idea. https://t.co/rm84DjmY7u

Forces women to have babies.
Tells women to put babies up for adoption.
Mocks women who haven’t had biological children who have adopted children.

When you have to tell people you’re humble, you’re definitely not humble.

I guess Republicans just can’t figure out that demeaning women without biological children is a losing issue. https://t.co/AjWCzmascB

Step children are just as important as biological children, f*ck off Huckabeast.

But we reckon this one said it best.
Children make you humble?
Trump has 5 children…that we know of.
Musk has even more…9 or 10, in that vicinity.
Yup, they’re the epitome of humility. https://t.co/o8ZGtWXKNU— Ana Navarro-Cárdenas (@ananavarro) September 18, 2024
No more questions, your honour.
To conclude …
I'll say this: at this point this isn't some savvy political calculation: they genuinely, as an ideological matter, have contempt for people without children. https://t.co/QOGYOX2bSn
