What does this even mean? What's the joke (or not) he's trying to make? I honestly don't get it. He wants to get her pregnant, than leave her for the "cat lady that she is"?

It's a veiled rape threat, the kind that is worded ambiguously enough that it flies under the radar for many but terrifies those who've experienced similar scenarios with creepy, weird, abusive men.

He's for a long time had a thing for Taylor, making weird comments that you'd expect out of a creepy high schooler. Things like being weirdly jealous sounding of her boyfriends, to iirc inviting her over, making a joke about comparing her to his wife, and now this. He obviously has a thing for her, and she does not give a fuck. He's a grown up "niceguy" for sure.

I wonder if it's because, regardless of being rich and famous, he can't coerce a pop star like Taylor, he's not that rich or famous.

She's unattainable, and for a narcissist that's irresistible.

Good observation, I bet you're onto something...

I'm sure he could with others, but Taylor is also in the billionaire class that is crushing the planet, so his money isn't really the same incentive.

If I understand correctly, Swift mentioned she didn't have kids as a reference to Vance's shit take on childfree individuals voting. Good ol' Elmo just had to make it rapey.

Apparently he has a procreation fetish and has something like 12 acknowledged children and who knows how many unknown children. He manipulates people into allowing him to sleep with them, gets them knocked up, and walks away.

And you just know that eugenics related thoughts are a part of it for him. Ick, what a creep.

She signed her endorsement of Harris/Walz as "Childless Cat Lady", lampooning some crazy shit Vance said on a campaign stop
