Tim Walz’s Political Origin Story Is Reportedly Full Of Holes
Daily Caller ^ | August 30, 2024 | Robert Schmad

Posted on 08/30/2024 5:20:15 PM PDT by Robwin

Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Tim Walz’s story about why he first decided to get involved in political campaigns contradicts public records and statements reviewed by the Washington Examiner.

Walz, who previously had a career as a social studies teacher, has long repeated a story about how he and two of his students were refused entry to a reelection rally for former President George W. Bush in 2004, saying that the incident was ultimately what inspired him to get involved in politics, according to the Examiner. However, Walz himself was not refused entry, according to a source who spoke anonymously with the Examiner, and the two “students” Walz brought to the event were actually teenagers who went to different high schools than the one he taught at and who had a public altercation with Bush staffers days prior to the event, public records show.

Walz himself has offered contradictory accounts of this purported origin story.

In some versions of the tale, Walz says he was allowed to enter the event after pointing out his service in the National Guard, while in others, he claims that campaign staffers barred him from entry alongside the students. The Minnesota governor referred to the students as “fellow teachers’ children” in a 2020 social media post, however, in a 2022 interview with Minnesota Public Radio, he said he was “their teacher.”

“It was at this moment that I decided to run for office,” Walz said in 2020 after one of his recollections of the story. “While I had a passion for politics, I had never been overly involved in political campaigns, and many people thought that a high school teacher and football coach didn’t stand a chance.

The guy is a pathological liar. Which means, of course, he is the perfect running mate for the equally truth challenged Kamala.

It turns my stomach to even see an image of Tampon Tim.
He looks like a hard core pedophile.

I can spot a perv from a mile away, and Tampon Tim checks all the boxes.

The campaign also denied that Walz had any personal relationship with an Islamic cleric who promoted pro-Hitler and pro-Hamas media, only for footage to later surface of the Minnesota governor calling him a “master teacher,” the Examiner reported.

The Islamic cleric like all "good" Islamist people are expert at baiting non-Muslims. I think that would make the cleric a "master baiter".

Democrats always have some bogus emotional origin story which inevitably turns out to be false.

Kommie-la better watch out. Walz might just decide that because VP has “President “ in it, that he’s the real deal, not her.

Sorry, Kams. Another old guy just effed you.

Walz listens intently to his "master teacher."

William Safire called Crooked Hillary a congenital liar.

Wonder what he would have said about Tampon Timmy?
