JD Vance has defended a fat gibe he made against a fellow Republican, dragging the son of God into the debate. <\/p>\n

The devout Catholic joked about Fox News contributor and Washington Post columnist Marc Thiessen\u2019s weight on Wednesday as part of an ongoing national conversation about the price of burritos. <\/p>\n

\n

The humble burrito is being used as a lightning rod for a conversation about inflation. Thiessen weighed in, earning a rebuke that many thought was unbecoming of a vice president, who has been mocked for his own chubby cheeks. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cI\u2019m surprised to hear Mark say this. If you\u2019ve ever met him in person, it\u2019s quite obvious the man has never missed a burrito,\u201d he wrote, spelling Thiessen\u2019s first name incorrectly.<\/p>\n

Now, Vance, 42, has defended himself, claiming the post was not mean-spirited. Vance called into Hugh Hewitt\u2019s Salem News Channel show on Thursday, telling the host it was just a \u201cjoke.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cYou know, it was a joke, Hugh. I think there are ways in which you\u2019re allowed to punch back, and you\u2019re allowed to be a little bit humorous. I\u2019m sure it was not as charitable as I should have been, but, you know, one thing is\u2014look, I think he\u2019s a good Catholic,\u201d Vance said. <\/p>\n

He added that he \u201cfeels pretty good\u201d about the bizarre comment. \u201cI certainly wish him the best. I think he\u2019s been a little unfair to me over the last couple of weeks, and so I decided to hit back with a little spice. I will say that if you read the Gospel, you know, Jesus has remarkable humility. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe also has a remarkable way with words. And so I\u2019m always going to fall short of that example, but I don\u2019t think that there\u2019s anything wrong with being a little spicy from time to time. And, you know, maybe in two years you\u2019ll look back and say, \u2018I wish I hadn\u2019t said that,\u2019 but right now I feel pretty good about that,\u201d he explained. <\/p>\n

The discussion began when right-wing commentator Matt Walsh said that high grocery prices were becoming a vulnerability for President Donald Trump. Turning Point USA personality Andrew Kolvet then provided anecdotal evidence on the affordability crisis from a college student\u2019s observation of the price of burritos.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of our TPUSA college students gave me his take on affordability: \u2018A burrito shouldn\u2019t cost $20,\u2019\u201d Kolvet posted, adding a complaint about Biden-era COVID-19 policies.<\/p>\n

In response, Thiessen appeared to defend the high burrito prices, saying college students should not be spending their money to go out for a casual meal.<\/p>\n

\u201cCry me a river. The burritos in the college cafeteria are included in your meal plan,\u201d Thiessen complained.<\/p>\n

Vance then inserted himself in the MAGA burrito debate, launching his jab at Thiessen\u2019s apparent eating habits.<\/p>\n

Vance talked up Thiessen\u2019s Catholic credentials in the Salem News Channel interview, but this might land awkwardly with his congregation because of his past hiccups. <\/p>\n

For example, when President Donald Trump branded Chicago-born Pope Leo XIV \u201cWEAK on Crime, and terrible for Foreign Policy,\u201d Vance defended him. The convert was asked on Special Report with Bret Baier<\/i> about his thoughts \u201cas a Catholic\u201d about Trump\u2019s papal feud, and repeatedly called the matter not \u201cnewsworthy.\u201d The self-described \u201cbaby Catholic\u201d also insisted that Trump was \u201cposting a joke\u201d when he shared the since-deleted AI image of himself as Jesus.<\/p>\n

\n

Last month, the vice president was on Fox News again lecturing the pope on immigration. \u201cI do think that some of the things that have come out of the Vatican on the immigration question in particular have been troubling, and ultimately I disagree with it,\u201d Vance told Laura Ingraham.<\/p>\n
