Tim Walz Asks Guy Guarding Tomb Of Unknown Soldier Why He Doesn’t Just Desert Him

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Paying a visit to the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, a puzzled Governor Tim Walz asked the guard why he bothered staying with his fallen comrade instead of just deserting him.

"Who cares about some no-name soldier?" asked Walz, laughing jovially. "Isn't there something else you'd rather be doing?"

Onlookers reported that Walz followed the guard at the Tomb back and forth for about half an hour, dumbstruck at why he wouldn't quit and go home. "Come on, what do we owe this dead guy? It's hot outside in this suit," said Walz as the guard remained silent. "It's so simple, buddy. Just walk away. What in the world would compel you to stay by this guy's side?"

According to sources, Governor Walz became confused upon entering Arlington National Cemetery, unsure why someone would actually die in service to their country. "Why didn't they quit when they found out they were going to be deployed?" asked Walz, shaking his head at the tombstones. "It just makes no sense to me. They literally give you a few months warning, with ample time to abandon your unit."

At publishing time, Governor Walz had been seen questioning families at the Korean War memorial why they bothered leaving flowers for soldiers who hadn't thought to desert their unit.

I understand that this is the Bee, and this is satire, but the very thought that a guard at the Tomb of the Unknowns would abandon their post, or that anyone would suggest such a thing is utterly sickening to me.

Some things, you don’t joke about.

I think it’s hilarious to point out the corrupt weasel Waltz is, by contrasting him with the honor all Tomb Guards have.

It’s dark humor and it’s pretty good.

It's not Sarcasm, it's Ridicule.

It is a direct Political attack on the character and patriotism of Walz and his Prog Marxist supporters under cover of humor.

It is completely Partisan and quite valid.

There is no disrespect of Traditional American Institutions from the Bee, only from Walz and his Prog Marxist supporters.

It certainly suggests hatred for Walz and his Prog Marxist supporters.

But remember, “All this for a flag” wasn’t sarcasm. Evil people on the Democrat’s side.

The Official Sewage Treatment Plant Flag should have Tampon Tim’s likeness emblazened on it.

Thanks and sorry that you had to post this reality!

They are joking about Tampon Tim abandoning his post. Lighten up, Karen

It wouldn’t need to be joked about if Walz didn’t actually do it to his own unit .

He has no honor—he doesn’t know the word. If war comes with China, he would gladly help the Chinese, saying it was to bring world peace and curb MAGa warmongers.
