JD Vance Suggests People in ‘Violent’ Marriages Shouldn’t Get Divorced

The Ohio Republican Senate nominee claimed people “shift spouses like they change their underwear,” and that it had damaged a generation of children.

(NewsNation) — Comments Sen. JD Vance made in 2021 about “violent” marriages circulated online after former President Donald Trump announced he chose the Ohio Republican as his running mate in the 2024 election.

Vice reported on his remarks, which Vance made at an event that took place at Pacifica Christian High School in Southern California. Vance faced backlash after the report came out, but previously said his comments had been misconstrued.

“This is one of the great tricks that I think the sexual revolution pulled on the American populace, which is the idea that like, ‘well, OK, these marriages were fundamentally, you know, they were maybe even violent, but certainly they were unhappy, and so getting rid of them and making it easier for people to shift spouses like they change their underwear, that’s going to make people happier in the long term,'” Vance said, according to the 2022 Vice article.
