COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz sought to energize activists at a Democratic state convention in South Carolina, as the party's 2024 vice presidential nominee works to keep up the high national profile he gained when Kamala Harris selected him as her running mate.

Walz, a former schoolteacher who went on to serve in Congress and then became his state’s governor, keynoted the South Carolina gathering in Columbia, traditionally a showcase for national-level Democrats and White House hopefuls. Speaking to convention delegates for more than half an hour, Walz used colorful language and spoke plainly as he lobbed criticism at President Donald Trump and called on his fellow Democrats to have the courage to stand up to the “bully” in the White House.

What a brainless wonder. Calling me a terrorist for voting for Trump isn't mean?? Going after parents that don't agree with what's going on in their children's school. A terrorist isn't mean? I can go on and on you stupid...🤬

Be a little bit meaner?

...because all Democrats do and say hasn’t been mean, already?

You just have to laugh.

[donozark]

Walz is too dumb to have ever been issued a social security number.

[j.havenfarm]

So more of them should gun down people they disagree with?

[Allegra]

Democrats are nothing *but* mean.

Walz is a mental case.

I hope this idiot stays in the spotlight for as long as possible.

I am becoming ready to be mean... to THEM.

"Be a little meaner!"

Translation: "The 2 billion dollars damage and 2,200 cops injured in 2020 weren't enough! We need to step it up!! Next time, the would-be assassins of Trump and Kavanaugh and Scalise need to do a better job! Come on, people, let's get with it!!!"

Orders to their wind up wackos.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Walz is a flabby tub of lard. Brains look like pork belly.

[anton]

Fat little punk. /he would have had his ass kicked every day at my high school and would have been afraid to even get on the bus.

[Muhammy]

WALZ IS A PIECE OF SHIT

[coloradan]

Be a little meaner? I guess two assassination attempts weren’t enough.

[Hyman Roth]

Note to Tampon Tim. The majority of us in SC are packing heat. Send some of you mean people to the redneck riveria. My odds are on us rednecks.

[Recompennation]

Him and kim taine ?
Both de-relevant

[BradyLS]

Yes, they need to get back to the winning ways of “mostly peaceful” and double down with “mostly mean.” 🙄

[TornadoAlley3]

Curse more and stomp around?

[doc maverick]

“Walz is a mental case.”
He really is. His wife cringes when he touches her and he yanks his son around like a piece of dead meat.
He’s a liar, a friend of the CCP and I suspect worse than that.
He obviously has an issue with masculinity because he knows he not all that masculine.
Basically, he’s one F’ed up, paunchy bunghole.

[CFW]

With no embarrassment whatsoever. What grown man with any respect for himself speaks in such a manner? Walz sounds as if he studied being “tough” by listening to a 14 year-old middle-schooler from the “mean girls” club.
