Candice Bergen calls out JD Vance during the Emmy performance

Candice Bergen‘ gets political at the Emmys… and makes a joke at JD Vance’s expense to loud applause from the audience.

The TV legend stepped up to the microphone at the Emmys in LA on Sunday night and talked about her time on Murphy Brown, which ran from 1988 to 1998 with a short-lived revival in 2018.

CB recalls a moment when then-Vice President Then Quayle – who served under president from 1989 to 1993 George H. W. Bush — publicly called out the show because Murphy had decided to raise her daughter as a single mother.

Bergen sarcastically says we’ve come this far – saying we’ll never have a Republican VP candidate dictating that we would never attack women for having children… and ends the moment with a “meow.”

The prank left several stars, like Jon Stewart And Mindy Kaling — laughing … with many stars giving Candice a big round of applause.

Of course this is what Bergen is referring to J.D. Vance …who has made numerous statements about not having children – calling women without children “sociopaths” and adding “childless cat ladies” has none direct commitment in the future of the country.

Vance has received a lot of criticism in recent days for his comments… including from Taylor Swift in her Kamala Harris recommendation – who proudly called herself a “Childless Cat Lady.”
