15 Best Memes About Vance Wiping The Floor With Walz In VP Debate
Former President Donald Trump mocked Minnesota Governor Tim Walz after a vice-presidential debate, where Walz made a controversial comment about his friendships with school shooters. During the debate, CBS’s Norah O’Donnell confronted Walz about his previous opposition to an assault weapons ban, to which Walz responded by sharing his experience with Sandy Hook parents and claimed to have become friends with school shooters. In response, Trump shared a graphic promoting his campaign, highlighting the phrase “NOT FRIENDS WITH SCHOOL SHOOTERS.” Additionally, Walz struggled to clarify his claim about being in Hong Kong during the Tiananmen Square massacre, admitting to being a “knucklehead” who can sometimes get caught up in rhetoric.
Former President Donald Trump mocked Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz immediately after the vice-presidential debate Tuesday night, following the Democrat’s bizarre brag about his friendships “with school shooters.”
“Governor, you previously opposed an assault weapons ban but only later in your political career did you change your position,” said CBS’s Norah O’Donnell. “Why?”
“Yeah, I sat in that office with those Sandy Hook parents,” Walz said, referring to families of the 20 Connecticut children killed by a deranged gunman in 2012. “I’ve become friends with school shooters,” Walz added. “I’ve seen it.”
Trump shared a graphic of a new yard sign with the slogan “Trump/Vance ’24,” followed by “NOT FRIENDS WITH SCHOOL SHOOTERS.”
Walz, who was visibly nervous throughout the prime-time event, also struggled to explain why he claimed to have been in Hong Kong during the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre after multiple reports contradicted his story.
“I’m a knucklehead at times,” he said. “Many times I will talk a lot. I will get caught up in the rhetoric.”
