Somehow, Tim Walz just keeps getting weirder. Since faceplanting as Kamala Harris’ running mate, the Minnesota governor has been holding rallies and making the media rounds in a desperate attempt to boost his stock for a 2028 presidential run.

It’s as if Walz was created in a lab by new DNC Vice Chair David Hogg to be the worst politician imaginable. With Harris still out there, presumably about to run for Governor of California, I understand that’s a bold statement. She’s a hard one to top, and maybe she’ll hold onto the crown, but man is Walz an odd fellow who seemingly connects with no one but latte-sipping urban left-wingers. What makes it worse, though, is that he doesn’t seem to realize just how weird he is so his public interactions just keep devolving.
Sure enough, that continued in his recent interview with Gavin Newsom, who has apparently abandoned his governing duties to become a podcast host. In this first clip, Walz claims he can “kick most of their ***” while speaking about Trump supporters.
A fair warning that the sheer level of overcompensation you are about to see is jarring.

WALZ: How do you fight it?
NEWSOM: Well, this notion of…
WALZ: I think I could kick most of their ***, I do think that. I know I can throw them, but I don’t know if we’re going to fall into that place where we want to, okay, we challenge you to a, you know, a WWE type of thing here.
Could you, though, Tim? Could you? What an odd little guy this dude is. I’d love to find out what political consultants are making bank advising Walz because a grift that good deserves recognition. As with when Joe Biden repeatedly did it, it should be noted that when you have to go around threatening to beat people up as a politician, you end up looking weak and pathetic. Keep in mind that Walz is the same guy who was too much of a coward to deploy with his unit while serving in the Minnesota National Guard and then spent years stealing valor by falsely insinuating he served in a warzone.
Still, the governor wants everyone to know that Republicans are terrified of his self-promoted masculinity.

NEWSOM: But I think this notion, this notion of toxicity in masculinity needs to be separated, and I think it’s been conflated, and I think we’re gonna have to work on that a little bit. There is a crisis of men…
WALZ: I think some of us scare them. I think I scare them a little bit, is why they spend so much time on me. No, I’m serious because I can fix a truck, they know I’m not b************ on this. And I’m not putting this in people’s grill. I don’t know if…my identity is not hunting. My identity is not football coaching. My identity is not, you know, a beard and a truck…
“I’m not putting this in peoples’ grill,” says Walz as he once again publicly tells people how absolutely, totally masculine he is. He can even fix a truck! And sure, he spent the 2024 campaign pretending to be a hunter (while getting caught on camera not even knowing how to operate a shotgun) and a world-class football coach, but he’s not trying to signal anything to you. It’s all organic, you see.
And just to make sure you understand that he’s masculine and not trying to overcompensate, Walz told Newsom again how masculine he is.

WALZ: It just baffled me how much time they spent trying to attack me that I wasn’t masculine enough in their vision. Like, I would have never believed this. I saw Fox News did a couple days because I used a straw. I’m like, “Hell, what am I…how else do you drink a milkshake type of thing.” But they focused on it obsessively, which I think, again, is their obsession, their weirdness. We buy their frame on these issues of sexuality.
Yes, please double down on trying to call Republicans Weird. I’m sure that’ll work out brilliantly for you the next go around.
Honestly, my reaction to all this is that I’m baffled that this guy thinks he’s a viable presidential candidate. Politicians should have some level of self-awareness when it comes to this stuff. Clearly, Kamala Harris didn’t, and we see how that ended for her. Walz is not him. He is not the guy to lead a Democratic Party revival, but if he wants to pretend he is, that’s a very good thing for Republicans. It’s also good for conservative commentators who need material so keep it up, Tim.
