Former NASCAR driver Danica Patrick publicly criticized a campaign advertisement for Vice President Kamala Harris, asserting that it “encourages lying” among female voters during an interview on Thursday with Fox News host Laura Ingraham.

The pair discussed the 30-second ad released by Vote Common Good and voiced by actress Julia Roberts, which shows a husband and wife interacting before she goes to the poll to vote. The wife then locks eyes with another woman, and as each of them give a ‘knowing’ look, they both mark their ballots for Harris as Roberts intones: “In the one place in America where women still have a right to choose, you can vote any way you want. Remember, what happens in the booth stays in the booth.”

Afterward, the woman’s husband asks, “Did you do the right thing, honey?” She replies, “I sure did!”

Ingraham argued that its message is encouraging women to lie to their partners.

“Alright, Democrats have a really cool new strategy to win over women. When it comes to time to vote, lie to your husbands and your boyfriends,” she said. “Someone actually got paid to write that script for Julia Roberts. Is it any wonder that male voters can’t stand Kamala with messaging like this?

“That men are somehow bullying or threatening the women in their lives who vote for Kamala Harris? Now, I don’t get offended by much anymore. I’ve been in Washington for too long, but that even offends me,” Ingraham said before bringing in Patrick.

“You know, obviously, that’s about lying,” she said. “On the other side, JD Vance said something beautiful. He said, ‘You shouldn’t be losing close relationships with people based on who you vote for and this election.’ So, I think that, really, if this is the truth about how you feel, and that you can’t tell your significant other about how you voted, it might reflect a little bit more on the depth of your relationship, because this is a core value.

“Voting is a core value that really builds relationships. And I think it’s really disappointing that they’re encouraging lying,” the former pro racecar driver added.

Later in the segment, Patrick, who mentioned that she voted for Trump, acknowledged that women may be less inclined to vote for the former U.S. President because of his character. But she qualified that by noting that he wrongly gets a great deal of negative attention, mostly from the media.

“The women vote is definitely something that’s very important, and I know that women can be very triggered by Donald Trump’s personality to some degree,” she said. “But I also think that the propaganda and the fake news that has come out time and time again about him has painted a bad picture. And I think it really leads to the fact that we as Americans, as human beings, need to think for ourselves, do our own research, and realize that so many of these things are just not true.”

WATCH:

Meanwhile, as Democrats push the issue of abortion, which is now left to the individual states following the U.S. Supreme Court’s 2022 decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, most Americans are concerned about their pocketbooks and financial prospects following years of inflation under the Biden-Harris regime.

To that point, the number of new jobs in the U.S. slowed down in October, with companies creating far fewer than experts had expected.

On Friday, the Labor Department said that businesses added only 12,000 jobs in October, which is far fewer than the 113,000 jobs that economists thought would be added.

In August, job creation decreased by 81,000, from a gain of 159,000 to 78,000, and in September, it decreased by 31,000, from a gain of 254,000 to 223,000.
