Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) blasted Gov. Andy Beshear (D-KY) for his comments on MSNBC Tuesday after the Democrat suggested Vance should have to deal with a pregnancy resulting from rape.

Beshear had been criticizing Vance for his 2021 abortion comments suggesting pregnancies resulting from rape and incest were “inconvenient.”

“Think about what some people have had to go through because of these laws,” Beshear said. “J.D. Vance calls pregnancy resulting from rape ‘inconvenient.’ An inconvenience is traffic. Make him go through this.”

Vance posted on X not long after Beshear’s statement.

“What the hell is this? Why is [Beshear] wishing that a member of my family would get raped?!? What a disgusting person.”

Beshear spoke on Monday night at the Democratic National Convention with a focus on abortion, and abortion advocate Hadley Duvall, also from Kentucky, followed his remarks. Duvall was raped by her stepfather and became pregnant.

“Trump says people are ‘absolutely thrilled’ that women have had their basic rights eliminated,” Beshear said. “J.D. Vance says women should stay in violent marriages — and that pregnancies resulting from rape are simply ‘inconvenient.’ … Their policies give rapists more rights than their victims. That’s not inconvenient, it’s just plain wrong.” 

Vance has posted on and off about the DNC since the convention started Monday, joking about Vice President Kamala Harris’s surprise appearance: “Kamala Harris spoke for 2 minutes last night at the DNC, which was enough time for her to list all of her successes as Vice President and still have a minute and 45 seconds to kill.”
