JD Vance Advocates Mass Deportations and Extra Votes for Parents
Republican vice-presidential candidate JD Vance defended his past comments about women and families without children in an interview with "This Week" co-anchor Jonathan Karl. Vance emphasized that his suggestion of giving parents extra votes was a "thought experiment" rather than a policy proposal, in response to Democratic ideas about allowing younger voters to participate in elections. Despite criticism, he remains confident in his chances of winning the election alongside Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
Vance also discussed immigration, advocating for the deportation of one million illegal immigrants, starting with violent criminals, and making it harder to hire undocumented labor. Additionally, he mentioned plans to reduce housing and food costs, although he did not provide specific details. The race has tightened with Vice President Kamala Harris leading the Democratic ticket, but Vance and Trump plan to work hard to persuade Americans to vote for them in the upcoming election.
