It was hard for Republicans to compete with The Onion's devastating exposé alleging that Walz' "aw, shucks" persona is merely a facade concealing his true "gee whiz" tendencies.
Their smear campaign honestly made me like him more and I'm unironically considering moving to Minnesota as a direct result. The only problem is that I'm from the South and snow is scary.
Edit: Y'all are terrible at selling people on coexisting with snow
What about the time he stopped to help an old lady push her car out of a snowbank? Did they even think to criticize him for that? I swear, GOP opposition research has gotten lazy.
How are they going to smear a guy that pulled over to ask if I had everything I needed when he saw me changing my tire, checked again on his way back and handed me a cup of coffee with pastry?
Later, he was my neighbor for a while. Came over when he saw me working on projects, let me borrow tools I didn't have, and occasionally he'd borrow one of my tools. Such as a little trailer I had, and one tire had a slow leak, and when he brought it back he had replaced the valve stem and greased the wheel bearings, pumped up all four tires, and took it through the wash.
None of this is true, but like you could try to talk shit about a guy like Walz, but to anyone that knows him, what kind of dude he is, you sound fucking dumb and weird.
You know when like some new friend comes along and privately tries to talk shit to you about one of your old friends, not knowing that you're old friends? That's how it feels hearing any of these god damn super weirdos talk shit about a genuinely nice, honorable dude like Walz.
