So this is how Kamala Harris and the media are going to try and save Stolen Valor Tim Walz? By claiming he misspoke? On more than one occasion, Tim Walz, while pushing gun control bragged about how he carried weapons of war in Iraq and Afghanistan. Of course, that’s complete and total bullshit as Walz was little more than a paper pusher in Italy. This is really how they are going to try and save this piece of shit?
Vice President Harris’ presidential campaign admitted Friday that her running mate, Gov. Tim Walz “misspoke” about his as a growing chorus of critics accuse him of “stolen valor.”
“Governor Walz would never insult or undermine any American’s service to this country — in fact, he thanks Senator Vance for putting his life on the line for our country. It’s the American way,” Team Harris said in a statement to NBC News Friday.
“In making the case for why weapons of war should never be on our streets or in our classrooms, the Governor misspoke. He did handle weapons of war and believes strongly that only military members trained to carry those deadly weapons should have access to them, unlike Donald Trump and JD Vance who prioritize the gun lobby over our children.”
Walz had been facing pressure to clarify his military record after a 2018 video surfaced of him touting his career in the National Guard as a reason for increased gun control.
“We can make sure that those weapons of war, that I carried in war, is the only place where those weapons are at,” Walz said in the clip, which was posted to Harris’ own campaign X account on Tuesday.
