One of the new books currently being pushed by journalists desperately trying to pretend that they weren’t part of the cover-up of Biden’s decline, claims that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz was terrified to face then Ohio Senator JD Vance in the vice presidential debate last fall.
Anyone who was watching that debate knows that this was a major turning point in the election.
Tim Walz seemed completely unprepared to answer difficult questions about his past and his record. He truly looked like a deer in headlights.
JD Vance, on the other hand, was calm, cool, and collected. Vance answered questions confidently and intelligently. Any doubts people had about Vance were gone before the event was even finished.
Twitchy reports:
The Minnesota Governor is the toast of the Democrat Party these days, traveling the country in fake ‘town hall meetings’ that are actually Democrat fundraisers. He talks about ‘freedom’ at these events as if we don’t remember that he openly stated that he doesn’t believe in the First Amendment.
But the real revisionism going on with Walz’s ‘town halls’ is about Walz himself. Democrats and the media want to pretend that he is a serious person in national politics, and make us forget that just a few months ago, Walz showed everyone in America how unserious he is in his debate with Vice President JD Vance.
No, we didn’t forget, ‘knucklehead.’
In a new now-it-can-be-told book, ‘reporters’ Jonathan Allen (NBC) and Arnie Parnas (The Hill) describe Walz’s preparation for that debate, and it is exactly what we would have expected, given his performance on stage that night.
Is anyone surprised by this claim?
During the 2024 campaign, @Tim_Walz was so anxious for his debate with @JDVance that he couldn’t sleep and aides had to remind him to eat.

The debate performance Walz gave that night will be talked about for years. It was a perfect example of what not to do in a debate.
