Donald Trump appears to have somewhat mixed feelings about Tim Walz — the newly selected running mate of Democratic Presidential candidate Kamala Harris. The Republican leader has dubbed it a ‘shocking’ pick that was “very insulting to anyone who wants security”. He also opined that Walz was a “smarter version” of Harris who wanted to help America “go communist immediately”.
“There’s never been a ticket like this. This is a ticket that wants this country to go communist immediately if not sooner. ‘We want no security, we want no anything.’ He’s very into transgender, anything transgender he thinks is great. And [Walz] is not where the country is on anything,” he insisted on Fox and Friends.
The former POTUS told the show hosts that Walz was a “smarter version of her” and perhaps “greater than Bernie Sanders”. He had earlier taken to social media to thank Harris for her choice.
