Gov. Tim Walz Names The 'Normal Thing' That 'You Never See' Trump Doing

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) on Monday offered more details on why he has been dismissing Donald Trump, running mate JD Vance and other Republican figures as “weird.”

“This observation of weird came from people I know ― my friends, my relatives, Republicans, some of them, that this is just awkward. They’re awkward,” he said, adding that GOP figures are pushing an agenda no one wants.

“Who’s asking for this crazy stuff?” he said. “Who’s asking to raise the price of insulin? Who’s asking to get rid of birth control?”

Walz, who is reportedly on Vice President Kamala Harris’ short list for vice president, said it’s hard to picture what Trump and other GOP figures do in their private lives.

“I brought this thing up that Donald Trump tries to mock Vice President Harris for laughing,” Walz told MSNBC’s Jen Psaki. “And I made the point: You never see this guy laugh. You never see him do these normal things.”

Republicans have frequently attacked Harris over her laugh, with Trump derisively calling her “laffin’ Kamala.”

Walz offered up another example of a normal thing you can’t picture Trump doing.

“Imagine, when I go home at night, I pick up the frisbee and throw it and my dog catches it, he comes over, he gets the belly rub for being a good boy,” he said. “Picture these guys doing that kind of stuff. They just can’t.”

He said the message is that Democratic candidates understand where regular people are coming from ― and what they need to get on with their lives.
