Candice Bergen Wickedly Compares JD Vance And Dan Quayle At Emmys
HuffPost
The former "Murphy Brown" star scorched the veep hopeful and the former veep in a "meow" moment.
Emmy Awards presenter Candice Bergen taunted GOP vice presidential nominee JD Vance by comparing him to former Republican Vice President Dan Quayle. (Watch the video below.)
Vance’s much-circulated “childless cat ladies” jab at powerful Democrats, including Vice President Kamala Harris, continued to invite mockery on TV’s prestigious night.
Bergen reminisced about the milestone moment when Quayle moralized over the parenting choice of Bergen’s sitcom character, Murphy Brown, in 1992. (The CBS comedy about an investigative journalist originally ran from 1988 to 1998 and was revived for a season in 2018.)
“My character was attacked by Vice President Dan Quayle when Murphy became pregnant and decided to raise the baby as a single mother,” Bergen said. “Oh, how far we’ve come.”
