JD Vance is like "can't find afford childcare? Simple just let your nanny watch them"

"child care is child care", I googled it, it checks out, he's actually correct on that one.✅

“Well, I would do that, and we're sitting down—you know, I was, somebody, we had Senator Marco Rubio, and my daughter Ivanka was so impactful on that issue. It's a very important issue. But I think when you talk about the kind of numbers that I'm talking about, that—because look, child care is child care, it’s—couldn't, you know, it’s something, you have to have it, in this country you have to have it.
But when you talk about those numbers compared to the kind of numbers that I'm talking about by taxing foreign nations at levels that they're not used to—but they'll get used to it very quickly—and it's not gonna stop them from doing business with us, but they'll have a very substantial tax when they send product into our country. Those numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we're talking about, including child care, that it's going to take care.
We're gonna have—I look forward to having no deficits within a fairly short period of time, coupled with the reductions that I told you about on waste and fraud and all of the other things that are going on in our country, because I have to stay with child care. I want to stay with child care, but those numbers are small relative to the kind of economic numbers are so much bigger than any numbers that we're talking about, including child care, that it's going to take care."

Donald Trump, ladies and gentlemen. Very stable genius.

Donald Trump could not have made it more clear that he has never, ever thought about this issue. Not once.

How is it possible that people listen to this man speak and think "Yeah, that makes sense... he'll definitely make a good president..."

[onyemaww]

We are all stupider for having to listen to that stream of consciousness. Two mice banging cymbals in his head

"At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul." - Principal Downey (Billy Madison 1995)

"No child care? Ever considered not being poor?"

Trump: tariffs baby, child care drill tariffs

Vance: they should take away all the certifications required so that the 4 year old can take care of the 2 year old, then the 2 year old can take care of the 4 year old, tag team it. Whatever makes sense.

[mddawson]

Vance's answer is particularly frightening when he suggests that untrained and unvetted adults be allowed to be child carers.

[rosemariebredahl]

After Vance says parents' childcare plans should be free babysitting by relatives, he goes completely off the rails ... talking about waiving masters degrees & such! Clueless!

I asked my parents if they could care for my kids while we were at work. My father said NO, I’ve done my child rearing, these are your kids. Never asked again.

"Childcare is childcare."

He ACTUALLY said something truthful! He may need to have a sit down. Somebody get him some water.

[GrammyKeena]

I was just so relieved that he didn't give his usual answer of "Drill, baby, drill."

[intrinsicallylast]

"Have you ever had a dreams...that...um...that you had..."

“Childcare? … stall them with the weave … thinking, thinking, … Tariffs. Yeah, that’s what I will riff on. Tariffs, and the numbers. It’s jenius. That’s what the “J” stands for. Strong. So strong. …”

[acefstripe]

Trump is all about the issues. He loves the issues. All of them. The very best of issues.
