MSNBC’s Ruhle Gets Egg On Her Face With JD Vance’s Epic Response To Fact Check

Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) found himself in a heated online exchange [1] with MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle this week, drawing significant attention across social media.

The back-and-forth began when Ruhle mocked a remark Vance made during a recent speech, where he humorously claimed that his two young sons consume 14 eggs each morning, a clear exaggeration.

Ruhle took to X (formerly Twitter) to criticize Vance’s statement, posting, “14 eggs per day. 98 eggs per week. 2 children consuming 8+ dozen eggs per week,” in an attempt to cast doubt on Vance’s claim.

Her post quickly gained traction, racking up over a million views as she appeared to align with other users questioning whether Vance was familiar with his own children’s habits.

However, rather than ignoring the jab, Vance quickly fired back, drawing attention to what he saw as an overreaction to a harmless comment. “One time I said I was so tired I could sleep for days. Stephanie Ruhle: Vance, in fact, only slept for 8 hours,” he tweeted in response, pointing out the media’s tendency to overanalyze minor statements and turn them into controversies.

Vance’s reply resonated with many users online, amassing millions of views within hours.

His retort sparked a wave of memes and comments, reflecting frustration among some who feel that media figures like Ruhle focus on trivial matters while overlooking more substantial issues.

The senator’s ability to turn the situation around with a humorous response gained him significant support on social media.

Ruhle’s criticism of Vance comes shortly after she faced her own backlash during an interview with Kamala Harris.

In what was Harris’s first public sit-down since being announced as the Democratic Party’s nominee for president, Ruhle was criticized for giving the vice president softball questions.

The interview led The New York Times to compare Ruhle’s conversation with Harris to former President Donald Trump’s regular interviews with Fox News host Sean Hannity.

The tension between Vance and Ruhle is not expected to die down anytime soon, especially as Vance prepares for a high-profile political event.

Vance will face off against Minnesota Governor Tim Walz in their only scheduled vice presidential debate ahead of the November election, set to take place this Tuesday.

This latest online spat between Vance and Ruhle highlights the growing friction between conservative politicians and liberal media figures, with both sides using social media to rally support and push back against perceived slights.

With the upcoming debate, Vance will have another opportunity to present his views and perhaps address the media scrutiny he has faced in recent weeks.
