MSNBC took a swipe<\/a> at Donald Trump’s vice-presidential candidate J.D. Vance this week, calling his comments on “childless cat ladies” a sign of “natalism” and, inexplicably, a desire for more white<\/em> babies to be born. Contributor Molly Jong-Fast appeared<\/a> on “Morning Joe” on Tuesday with Politico White House Chief Jon Lemire. When asked about Vance’s questionable comments, Jong-Fast said that it was a sign of his “racist” vision for the U.S.<\/p>\n

“What’s interesting is that this is this natalism that comes from an authoritarian playbook, right?” she said. “That there need to be ‘white children,’ right? That’s the idea. This is about great replacement theory racism, right? This is what this is. So don’t misunderstand it for him wanting more children. He wants a certain kind of racist thing.”<\/p>\n
