J.D. Vance Pokes Fun at Donald Trump's Odd Comments About 'Studying' Men's Bodies: 'I'm Not Talking About It'

Vice President J.D. Vance made a joke at the expense of his boss, President Donald Trump, during a campaign appearance in Ohio, taking a swipe at the president’s repeated comments about another Republican politician's backside.

During an event in Cincinnati on Wednesday, October 21, Vance joked that Trump had already said too much about Senator Jon Husted in particular.

"Now, this is a tough act to follow," Vance told supporters as the audience clapped and cheered.

"What could I possibly say about Jon Husted that Donald J. Trump has not already said?" he asked with a smile.

He then said: "Don't worry, I'm not talking about Jon Husted's a--. I'm not talking about it."

After the joke, Vance shifted to praising Husted's record in Washington, claiming the senator had accomplished more in less than two years than most lawmakers manage to do in a decade.

Vance was referring to Trump repeatedly gushing about Husted’s physique, specifically how impressed he is with his athleticism.

At an October rally in Youngstown, Trump went into very specific detail about the former college football player's body.

The president said he “examined” the senator’s backside along with his shoulders, feet, hands and jawline. He then continued, stating: “I patted him on the shoulder, and it was like a piece of steel. I’m still recovering.”

Husted played defensive back at the University of Dayton, and Trump has attributed what he calls his impressive physique to his athletic background.

The president continued gushing about Husted during a rally in Greenville, N.C., on Tuesday, October 20.

During a campaign speech, Trump claimed he is not into sizing up men but apparently is making an expectation for Husted.

"I've never studied the body of a man before," Trump told the North Carolina crowd, adding, "It's not my thing."

He then described the senator's backside as a "pile of muscle."

Despite his claims, Trump has had a habit of complimenting men’s physiques.

During Pride Month in June, the president pointed to a man who caught his attention, stating: "Look at this guy over here. I don't know who the h--- he is, but he is one h--- of a specimen, I can tell you."

Vance was in Cincinnati to support two Republican candidates who are at risk of losing their seats: Husted, who's running to keep his Senate seat, and Vivek Ramaswamy, who is campaigning for the governor seat.

Husted, who took over Vance's Senate seat after he became vice president, is facing former Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown, who is ahead in most polls, with one having him up by 9 points.

Ramaswamy is also down in the polls and plunged even further after launching a controversial attack ad on his opponent, Amy Acton, that backfired.
