Those that are still alive in the state? We had one of the poorest covid outcomes for people in nursing homes despite being completely locked down with people not being able to see their relatives and non-healthcare workers essentially being locked in their homes for months on end. This guy is a tyrant - he tries to come off as reasonable (it's just for two weeks, then two months, then 4) and to gaslight you into thinking you're selfish or stupid.

As to why MN keeps electing this fuck bag - Minneapolis/st. paul, duluth and Rochester.

He's 60. The same age as Brad Pitt. I'm just not seeing the senior citizen angle. Although he does look much older than he is.

"I spent 25 years in the Army, and I hunt," Walz says at the beginning of the clip. He said he supports "common sense legislation" that "protects the Second Amendment," but said he favors extensive background checks.

"We can make sure those weapons of war, that I carried in war, is the only place that those weapons are at ," he said.

So he's a gun-grabbing Stolen Valor douchebag. Got it.

The only deployment he ever did was to Italy to augment USAF Security Forces. Never served where he would be carrying a weapon "in war".

Tim Walz Said He Wants To Ban Guns He ‘Carried in War.’ He Never Saw Combat.

What's more, he ends sentences with prepositions!

I speculate that once the senile old bird was clearly unviable as a candidate, Soros pushed to go all in and drive for the left-most candidate he could control. He wants the death of America, and if he doesn't get it this go around, he will likely die before it happens. Thus, he pushed the D's to go all in. If they can pull off a Venezuela Steal, the Hairy-Balls ticket should shoe-in the final destruction of our country, and he can die happy.

I don’t think it will be a cake walk for Vance when he debates Walz. Walz has been in politics long enough to give and take. Remember when we thought Ryan was going to mop the floor with Biden?

This guy's ties with the CCP really bothers me. Dude lived over there and was a teacher there.

That's before we found out Ryan was part of the problem. He's a uni-party RINO elitist. Probably took a dive on purpose, just like RINO Romney did during his second debate.
How about we give Trump and Vance a chance and just stop with all the pearl clutching about how Walz is just the most devious, best-est debater and politician that ever lived. Why do some here think we're all going to underestimate him and then he's going to pounce on us? He comes across to me as a liar, bully and a tyrant. How about we give our team a chance, after all it's not Trumps or Vances first rodeo either.

In the logic of the Left, J.D. Vance makes a quip to highlight the important perspective of parents in setting our country’s future direction is weird – along with wanting to secure our border, avoid socialism, have fair elections, and protect our kids.

What does the Left consider normal?

A biological male beating up a female boxer in the Olympics and stealing her medal opportunity after years of training.
Drag queens posing in a mockery of the Last Supper.
Pornographic materials in schools and kindergartners watching drag shows and pride parades.
College students shutting down classes and campuses to join Hamas-sympathizing “protests.”
Riots that destroy businesses and cities.
Major theft is decriminalized so people can steal from retailers with impunity.
Now that’s weird – It’s B.S. Dangerous. Vile. Criminal. Disgusting

BTW, it was Tim Walz that came up with the "Vance is weird" tagline.

Politics ain't an easy gig, but Walz is at a severe disadvantage, along with Harris; both have horrible, horrendous records, just terrible, extremely leftist actions in their own states. Vance doesn't.

The country is getting sick of extreme leftist bullshit which has eaten away at the everyday lives of the masses, and these two idiots are near the top of the food chain of incompetent commies.

The Democrats and their media now have three months to go to pull off an even greater national deceit than "Biden is fine."

Can they make a cackling buffoon out to be a brilliant leader? Can they present a communist stooge as an aw shucks Midwestern guy?

If they can do this, they are not fake journalists, they are real alchemists.

Truth should stop them in their tracks. But they long ago blinded their constituents to truth.

The commie actually said-- get this-- "Trump destroyed the economy!"

And the dupes roared!

MN Senator Lies, Says Tim Walz Served; J.D. Vance Didn't
Democrats don't lie to convince people of false things; they do it to plant ideas, repeat them again and again, and leave an impression that sticks even if the facts do not.

Sort of an "if there is smoke, there's fire" strategy. They generate a lot of smoke, and even if people don't believe any one fact, the totality of the accusations stains the conservative.

They have successfully done this with the "J.D. Vance and the couch" incident, in which the Associated Press planted a false story and retracted it, Democrats picked it up, and now the soon-to-be-nominated Vice Presidential candidate is making jokes about it in rallies.

They are trying to do the same thing with J.D. Vance's military record because Tim Walz is a chickenhawk veteran, and they are pounding the idea that he is a war hero who served his country while Trump and J.D. Vance are wimpy cowards.
That is an inversion of reality. Tim Walz found out that he was about to be deployed to Iraq and bailed out of the National Guard, and he is even lying about the rank at which he retired. J.D. Vance actually went to war at about the same time as Walz abandoned the troops he was to lead.

Yet the Democrats are doing this because they want to muddy the waters.


That, my friends, is Minnesota's United States Senator Tina Smith, a radical former Planned Parenthood president and liar extraordinaire. She OBVIOUSLY knows that J.D. Vance served with distinction in a war zone as a Marine, while Tim Walz left the Minnesota National Guard in order to avoid going to the same war zone.

Not everybody knows the facts about Walz's service yet, but it is impossible to be aware of anything in politics without knowing Vance's record. Veterans know, and from his first campaign his fellow National Guardsmen have been calling him out for his stolen valor. Soon veterans across the country will too.

I'll leave it to Beege to discuss the stolen valor issue, as she was a Marine, and I was a wimpy college professor before I turned into a political hack.

The point, though, is the brainwashing strategy used by the Democrats and the media-industrial complex, which will soon be deployed to turn Walz into a 10-foot-tall Rambo and Vance into a soy-boy who has an unnatural attraction to couches.

If you think that is disgusting, dishonest, and dishonorable, you are right. But so are the Democrats.

Don't believe me? Here is a Bloomberg reporter telling us that Tim Walz served in Iraq. He didn't. He retired to get OUT of going to Iraq. The media-Democrat industrial complex is in brainwashing overdrive.

This guy served with Walz and paints a picture of him which is very much at odds with Walz's own accounts of his service.

MK is looking fine

This is the biggest story of these days. It's the Story of the stories. The Democrats and their media know they overwhelm Fox News and other conservative outlets.

Therefore, Harris and Walz can say anything they want. No matter how colossal the lie. Anything at all. When is fact not a fact? When it is not known.

Ultimately, it will come out that Walz was a coward and Vance was a Marine. The truth will out. But a con man's con only needs to hold long enough for him to take your money and get off your porch.

90 days. That's their goal for this national con.

So how does this guy get elected to governor of Minnesota? I just don’t get it

The guy in the video has been beating his drum for years trying to shame Walz. Of course he gets very little media coverage. Frankly I don't think this story is going to change many minds. Most on the left would consider Walz dodging his way out of a war was the smart thing to do. They don't love this country and they don't believe it needs protecting. For the rest of us it raises blood pressure levels. Vance will probably get his licks in about it in the debate but Walz has been deflecting this subject for years nothing new to him.

Walz is the typical Democrat nothing sticks to them because they have the media to always deflect. Whereas the lies the Democrats tell get repeated every day, every hour every week and every month.

The Twin Cities metro area has more people in it than the rest of the state combined. Cities are liberal. What's not to get?

Absolutely. Three months of obfuscation is not a heavy lift for our activist media. Walz is an absolute mutt with bizarre policy positions, but he looks somewhat normal.

A preposition is the wrong thing to end a sentence with.

I’m originally from Minnesota and other than the rural areas it’s always been very liberal. I’ve even heard it call the SanFrancisco of the Midwest.
