Vice president JD Vance waded into the Sydney Sweeney controversy of the American Eagle’s campaign and said Democrats are calling Nazis everyone who thinks Sydney Sweeney is beautiful. “Great strategy, guys. That’s how you’re going to win the midterm, especially young American men,” JD Vance joked during an episode of the conservative “Ruthless” podcast. “My political advice to the Democrats is continue to (call) everybody who thinks Sydney Sweeney is attractive a Nazi,” he said, laughing the row off. The campaign drew massive flak after playing with ‘genes’ and ‘Jeans’. “Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color,” Sydney Sweeney said in one of the ads. “My jeans are blue,” she said, triggering row that the ad was glorifying good genes. “I actually thought that one of the lessons (Democrats) might take is ‘we’re going to be less crazy.’ And the lesson they have apparently taken is ‘we’re going to attack people as Nazis for thinking Sydney Sweeney is beautiful,'” he said on the podcast. “Great strategy, guys. That’s how you’re going to win the midterm, especially young American men.”

‘Her jeans, her story’: American Eagle refuses to apologize

American Eagle issued a statement addressing the controversy and the comparison with Nazi ideas. “‘Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans’ is and always was about the jeans. Her jeans. Her story. We’ll continue to celebrate how everyone wears their AE jeans with confidence, their way,” the statement read. “Great jeans look good on everyone.”“I love how the leftist meltdown over the Sydney Sweeney ad has only resulted in a beautiful white blonde girl with blue eyes getting 1000x the exposure for her ‘good genes,’” former Fox News host Megyn Kelly wrote on X.White House communications director Steven Cheung slammed the row and called it “cancel culture run amok.”
