Tim Walz made a couch joke about JD Vance and staked his claim to Middle American values in his vice presidential debut.
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.”
When I first saw the ticket together, I thought Vance was chosen because they were able to convince Donald Trump that Vance was one of his kids after all. Trump did get around back in the day, maybe JD's mom was a Miss America contestant or something.
But it's also likely that Trump's brain is mush, and he is convinced Vance is Eric Trump with a beard.
