Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance mocked MSNBC anchor Stephanie Ruhle for over-analyzing an off-the-cuff remark he made about how many eggs his sons eat.
On Sept. 21, during a visit to a supermarket in Reading, Pennsylvania, Vance discussed the rising grocery prices under the Biden-Harris administration. His two young sons, Ewan and Vivek, humorously interrupted the speech by reaching for a carton of eggs.
“Yes, buddy. Want some eggs? Let’s talk about eggs. Because these guys actually eat about 14 eggs every single morning. Is that right?” Vance asked.
Ruhle caught wind of his comment and posted her analysis of it on X, writing: “14 eggs per day. 98 eggs per week. 2 children consuming 8+ dozen eggs per week.”

Vance ridiculed Ruhle for his apparent hyperbole, responding: “One time I said I was so tired I could sleep for days. Stephanie Ruhle: Vance, in fact, only slept for 8 hours.”
