Kamala’s running mate Tim Walz was campaigning in Wisconsin this weekend when he told a crowd that the race is going to be a battle in which you speak to people in the grocery store and ask them if they’ve voted yet.
When Walz was first introduced, he tried very hard to frame Trump and J.D. Vance as “weird.” I’m thinking this was a case of projection. Also, isn’t this the same guy who always says people should mind their own damn business?
From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:
Walz highlights importance of Wisconsin in November electionThe November election will be a “margin-of-error race,” Walz predicted, saying Wisconsin would be one of a handful of states necessary to win.”This thing’s going to be a battle for the next 52 days,” he said. “It’s gonna be won in rooms just like this. It’s gonna be won door-to-door, call-to-call, $5 donation, trying to have that hard conversation in the produce aisle with the person you saw there at the grocery store.”The last two presidential elections in have been close in Wisconsin. In 2020, Biden won by about 21,000 votes after the state elected Trump by a similar margin just four years earlier.
It’s ironic that Walz is even bringing up grocery stores. The price of groceries under Biden and Harris is one of the issues that’s pushing many voters to Trump.
Here’s the clip:
People on Twitter/X had a field day with this.
Just a few weeks ago, Walz was complaining about people arguing about politics at Thanksgiving.
Of course, that tradition can be attributed to Obama who famously told supporters to argue with people and “get in their faces.”
