During an interview with WGAL News 8 on Monday, 2024 Democratic vice presidential candidate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) responded to voters who say they think the economy was better during the Trump administration and liked his tax cuts by stating that Trump “left with 10 million people out of work, 9 million jobs closed, and we were in the middle of the global pandemic. I don’t think people want to go back to tens of thousands of Americans dying, businesses shut. Donald Trump brags about that. The reason people weren’t using gas was that they couldn’t leave their house because he botched the COVID recovery,” and that Trump is anti-union.
WGAL News 8 Reporter and host Barbara Barr said, “[P]olls show that many Americans and Pennsylvanians think the economy was better over the Trump administration and they liked his tax cuts, they helped everyone.”

Dumbass Tim shut Minnesota down. Wisconsin border bars and restaurants were filled with cars with Minnesota license plates during Timmy’s statewide Covid shutdown. One Wisconsin bar/restaurant owner told me, “Our cash registers were humming thanks to Governor Walz.”
Doesn’t look like Walz is any brighter now than he was then.
Yeah, I agree with Tampon Tim that it's a mismatch to compare today's gas prices to 2020 with the overreaction to the china virus lowering demand for gasoline that year. But look from 2021 to today and prices are way higher than 2019 (the last Trump year before the china virus).
Doesn’t look like Walz is any brighter now than he was then. I’m not saying this because of taxes as I am old & don’t pay taxes any more or less. Prices were down. I believe he was solving the illegal immigrant problem. Those are two reasons.
You’re too kind. He is a Jackass. And a Communist Jackass at that.
He’s not just a knucklehead, he’s an idiot, too.
When the Leftists have been openly telling us, no, POUNDING it into us for the last two decades that they feel we are not paying enough for our gasoline, and have been endeavoring to bring us to parity with the exorbitant gas prices Europeans have to pay ($5-10 dollars a gallon...or more) we should have the sense to take them at their word.
They haven’t made any secret of the fact that they feel we drive around too much for our own good, and want to curtail that to “save the environment”.
If you listen to Leftists, they will tell you what they intend to do. We should listen.
The comments from “Fwippy Hands…and more” are absurd.
Yet no one demands the media to be shutdown for allowing such lies without consequence.
Jimmy Carter became pres, gas prices shot up- reagan became president, no more high gas prices- oblama took pres, prices of gas skyrocketed, Trump took over, prices dropped significantly again. Obiden took pres, prices climbed to record highs again
Hey Timmy, see a pattern here?
I must defend Tim Waltz here.
To quote proper clinical definitions before certain words became a pejorative, those with an IQ of 0 to 25 were called idiots, 26 to 50 were called imbeciles and 51 to 70 were called morons. Morons could communicate and learn common tasks; imbeciles stalled mentally at about six years old; and idiots couldn’t respond to stimulus or communicate with any level of competency.
As such it is wrong to call Waltz an idiot, he is a moron and we should respect that.
These people werent dying under Trump
Oh yeah, and if klamalalammamma and tampon “win”, 3xpect mask mandates, economy shut downs, vaccine requirements whenever even a flu rolls through the nation- their “justification” will be “we can’t let one more sickly or elderly person die because of the carelessness of selfish people who spread their germs around during cold and flu season”
Almost twice as many Americans died from COVID19 during Biden’s presidency as did during Trump’s presidency.
I would like to meet him as an experiment. I have always heard about people this stupid but never really met one.
LOL, I stand corrected. Tim Walz is a knucklehead and a moron.
Trump allowed the oil industry to increase production 50% which Biden stopped on his first day.
Anyone who would let his city burn is worse than a knucklehead he’s an evil son of a bitch
I agree 100%. That's why after Biden issued multiple EO's his first week in office to make it harder to drill for natural gas and oil, I pursued making mine and my wife's energy consumption to be more self-reliant. I researched it, implemented a Phase I small version of solar in 2021 to play with it for a year and study the results, and upgraded in 2022 to what I call the Phase II and final version. This includes doing most of our driving in an EV -- which I like because we can produce most of our power with solar. The gas pickup does things for us too (pickup chores, allows my wife and I to run separate errands for the day, and is the best car for trips that have poor fast charging options or if the charging costs are higher than gas costs). But I can't over state the freedom of knowing that 81% of my local driving in the EV comes homemade from solar (almost entirely 100% during the warm 8 months of the year). This is 16K miles per year of home charged miles (not counting the miles charged away from home).
Think of it as: for 8 months out of the year the Dims' stupid warmageddon cult energy polices don't make energy costs too high to have any impact on our local driving habits or how cool we set the home's thermostat.
There are lots of variables that have to be in your favor (i.e. good climate for solar, drive many miles per year for the gas and oil change savings to be worth the extra costs that come with an EV, etc.). Even if you live in a good climate for it, it requires LOTS of homework to make sure you have just enough solar equipment to take advantage of economies of scale, but not invest too much into it and run into the law of diminishing returns. This is doing the math on both your driving habits (how much charging the EV needs) and your home energy consumption habits (i.e. if you're retired or work from home and, therefore, home all day you run the HVAC a lot during the day when the sun is out).
For most people it's not a wise option. But I highly recommend every freedom lover who has a healthy distrust of government and its warmageddon cult to at least research it and make sure you're not missing out on being more energy self-reliant. One thing I learned is that part of the math was making my home less of an energy hog anyway (something I should have done years ago before I thought about solar and an EV). At least that part is probably wise for everybody to do.
