'Not a slip': Trump-loving Byron Donalds slammed after saying IVF 'breeds great families'

Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) was slammed online by numerous political onlookers after he said in vitro fertilization "breeds great families."

Donalds was confronted on NBC on Sunday over his defense of Donald Trump's "racist" speech, with NBC host Kristen Welker actually disagreeing with him over some comments the former president provided to a group of Black conservatives. In that same interview, he said something else that struck a nerve on social media.

According to Business Insider, Donalds "took to NBC's 'Meet the Press,' where he stated that he fully supports IVF, which helps people "create great families, which is what our country desperately needs."

"The IVF procedure is very important to a lot of couples in our country," Donalds said, the outlet reported. "It helps them breed great families. Our country needs that."

Rachel Vindman, a key witness in Trump's first impeachment, highlighted the word "breed."

"Sounds like a great ad to run for suburban women," she added on Sunday.

Former Lincoln Project veterans affairs adviser Fred Wellman picked up on Vindman's comments and added, "Oh wow...that's....not a slip."

MSNBC legal analyst and host Katie Phang also noticed the line "breed great families." She shared the video on social media, including only a straight-line-faced emoji without any further comments.

Former federal and state prosecutor Ron Filipkowski said in his reply, "We really should rename Mother's Day to Breeder's Day."

Self-described political junkie Russell Drew (@RussOnPolitics) also chimed in:

"Sounds like Congressman Byron Donalds is comparing IVF treatment to horse mating," he wrote. "Republicans get weird talking about this stuff. Good time to remind people that Donalds has a sketchy background. Bank fraud, for starters."

He also linked to an article reporting on allegations related to Donalds' purported criminal history.
