ST. PAUL, MN — Vice Presidential candidate Tim Walz disappointed trick-or-treaters at his door this year by handing them tampons instead of the traditional candy.
“Here you go! I’m sure you little girls and boys or whatever you identify as will love a few Tampax-brand tampons,” Walz told the costumed children at his door. “I know you little they/thems could definitely use some feminine products. Hugs!”
Trick-or-treaters admitted the offerings let them down a bit but the tampons were a pretty predictable handout from the Walz house.
“Mr. Walz is always trying to give us tampons,” local 13-year-old boy Evan Gessel commented. “‘I have no idea what to do with them, I have like 300 in my closet at home but he keeps giving them to me…not just on Halloween”
Other kids mentioned wanting to avoid the Walz’s house on their trick-or-treating route but feeling awkwardly compelled to stop by and take a tampon.
“Mr. Walz followed me and my brother down the street with a giant box of pads and a fistful of tampons,” 12-year-old Macey Ferguson said. “We told him we were ok but he insisted we take them and then told us he was an ally or something like that-I was so confused.”
At publishing time, Walz could be seen throwing tampons at the kids egging his house.
