Tim Walz continues to create controversy.
He is violating the number one rule of a running mate, which is to do no harm.
And Megyn Kelly flipped out over this disgusting Tim Walz video.
Walz’s preposterous explanation for committing stolen valor
Vice President Kamala Harris’ running mate, Minnesota Democrat Governor Tim Walz, appeared alongside her for an embarrassing interview with CNN’s Dana Bash.
It quickly became clear that Kamala’s handlers selected Bash to conduct the first interview with the duo because Bash was a super fan who could be counted on to lob softball questions that would keep the pair out of any political trouble.
Bash asked Walz in the gentlest manner possible about his years-long stolen valor scandal in which he falsely claimed to be a combat veteran.
Trump’s running mate, Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH) – a marine who deployed to Iraq – caught Walz in this lie.
Walz never deployed to combat in his 24 years in the Minnesota National Guard.
But in trying to push gun control, Walz claimed that he wanted to ban weapons like the ones he carried “in war.”
Bash sought to give him an easy way out by providing the answer as well as the question.
“You said you carried weapons in war, but you never deployed in war. Did you misspeak?” Bash asked.
Walz blamed his lying on bad grammar.
“My grammar’s not always correct,” Walz stated.
Megyn Kelly let loose once she saw how Walz tried to excuse his stolen valor as a case of bad grammar.
Walz had three weeks to come up with an explanation for why he lied.
And the best he could do was bad grammar.
“This “I speak like [regular ppl] do” as an excuse for his lies is so insulting. No, you don’t. We don’t steal valor. We don’t say we fought in wars we didn’t. We don’t say we achieved military ranks we didn’t. Stop besmirching the American ppl in an effort to downplay your lies,” Kelly posted on X.

Walz’s answer doesn’t hold water
Walz didn’t just experience a slip of the tongue.
He purposefully misrepresented his military service at every chance he got.
Tim Walz says his comments about carrying guns “in war” was a “grammar” error.
But here he is in 2004, carrying a sign proclaiming to be a veteran of Operation Enduring Freedom, which is a lie rather than a grammatical mixup https://t.co/oTpl4E6bP3 pic.twitter.com/7EnHgZPXW8

Walz would also never correct anyone who falsely described him as a combat veteran.
🚨 Nancy Pelosi introduced Tim Walz by his false rank of “Command Sgt. Major,” saying “we appreciate his service on the battlefield” in 2007.
Tim then thanked her. NO correction.
C-SPAN proceeded to label him as an “Afghanistan veteran”

Bash never pressed Walz on any of this and accepted his absurd answer about bad grammar because her job was to let Kamala and Walz check a box by saying they sat for an interview.
