Making his debut as a vice presidential candidate on Tuesday, Tim Walz staked his claim to Middle American values and argued that former President Donald Trump and his running mate, JD Vance, are “weird” and “creepy as hell.”
Walz, the governor of Minnesota, also got the packed arena laughing with a reference to a meme about Vance having relations with a couch.
“I can’t wait to debate the guy,” Walz said. “That is, if he’s willing to get off the couch and show up.”
…
“In Minnesota, we respect our neighbors and the personal choices they make, even if we wouldn’t make the same choice for ourselves,” he said. “There’s a golden rule. Mind your own damn business.”
I don’t think he’s fighting dirty. He’s just being clever and on the attack. Using their own attack strategies would be using racial slurs, political violence, and theocratic-fascist dog whistles. Harris and Waltz are just punking them, and it’s great.
It really highlights how decrepit and often inept the Biden campaign was.
