Tim Walz says losing presidential election is ‘pure hell,’ admits Dems are ‘fatigued’ in MSNBC interview
Fox News via NY Post ^ | 1/29/25 | Joseph A. Wulfsohn

Former Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz said in a new interview on Tuesday that it’s been “pure hell” since his party lost the presidential election last November.

Speaking with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow, the Minnesota governor was asked what advice he’d give to “average people” who oppose the agenda President Donald Trump has implemented since he returned to office.

“You know that overused term, ‘The frog in the boiling water?’ We’ve been in the damn pot way too long,” Walz said.

“I think it is speaking up. It’s thinking about your neighbors. It’s writing and putting those members of Congress – look, there is no spine amongst those folks – but this is real.”

Walz then offered some sympathy to exhausted Democratic voters.

“To the voters, I’m with this too. Everybody’s fatigued. Trust me, I get it,” Walz said. “It was pure hell, and the disappointment and the frustration, and I’m, you know, soul-searching – what could we have done to make the case? Because we knew this was coming. We knew the implication. And they’re throwing so much at us that we’re fatigued.”

The Democratic governor went on to complain how the country spent three days debating whether billionaire Trump ally and Department of Government Efficiency co-founder Elon Musk, who he referred to “President Musk,” had given a “Nazi salute” at a Trump inauguration rally last week.

“Of course he did, but that is a distraction from what, I think you said it, this is ‘game on’ stuff right here,” Walz continued.

William Safire asked Barry Goldwater when he got over his presidential loss, and Goldwater replied, "Never."

Well Tim, maybe it’s a good time to check Psalm 1 for a clue about hell and fatigue. Seems that repentance would be a great start, Sir.


Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful;

2 but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on His law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither, and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

4 The ungodly are not so, but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away.

5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous, but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

Of course he did

We already had four years of a lying idiot as VP; we did not need four more. That is why America decided not to waltz with Walz.

Modify your stupid policies. Follow the desires of the vast majority of your constituents. It’s not that difficult.

He ran for what, all of 2 months? If they are fatigued, that’s our plan, get used go it Timmy, maybe think about what your side put us through which was much, much worse. Since it’s so tough to handle Timmy maybe take a break in some tropical country.

Yes, I could see that maintaining a thousand lies would be exhausting. The truth is a breeze.

What did you think was going to happen?

The stolen 2020 election was a blessing in disguise.

It allowed Americans to see the true totalitarian evil & incompetence of the DNC/Communist party.

Now, Trump can truly begin dismantling the Communist DeepState and lay the groundwork for JD in 2028.

Wacky Walz still believes Musk gave a Nazi salute. As long as the Dems focus on nonsense like that they’ll continue to lose. They’re wholly ignorant of the will of the American people.

Minneapolis was pretty “fatigued” after you allowed BLM to burn it to the ground
