Failed VP Candidate Tim Walz Admits Democrats Made A Mistake By Refusing To Acknowledge Biden’s Mental Decline
Failed Democrat Vice Presidential candidate Tim Walz conceded that
the Democrat party may have made a mistake by failing to acknowledge
former President Joe Biden’s mental decline.
“Don’t you think your party needs to acknowledge that President Biden
was not up for the job of running for re-election, and that this was a
major mistake?” asked CNN’s Jake Tapper on Sunday.
“You all went along with the idea that he was up for it and he wasn’t
and everybody saw it. And the country rejected it,” Tapper continued.
Walz (D-Minn.) responded, stating “History will tell us to go back on
that. That very well could be the case, Jake. What I’m concerned about
is learning from those lessons. I would hope we would never do it again,
make a mistake, make sure we go through and get someone. But I don’t
know where it helps us going forward.”
In
what may be the most gaslit question in history, Jake Tapper (who
repeatedly told his guests Joe Biden was cognitively sound) asks MN
Governor and failed VP candidate Tim Walz why the Democrats went along
with "the idea he was up for it."
Walz’s comments were in reference to Biden’s initial refusal to drop
out of the 2024 presidential race, despite the growing concern over his
obvious mental decline.
Biden reiterated multiple times that he would not drop out of the
race, which came to a head following his disastrous debate performance
against President Donald Trump last June, ultimately ending his
re-election campaign.
At the time, Walz attempted to quell concerns about Biden’s mental state as he stated, “Yes, he’s fit for office.”
“None of us are denying Thursday night was a bad performance,” Walz
stated at the time. “It was a bad get, if you will on that. But it
doesn’t impact what I believe — he’s delivering.”
Additionally, Tapper pressed Walz regarding former Vice President
Kamala Harris’s recent California speech, where she told the crowd “I
told you so.”
“What does ‘I told you so’ really mean here? I mean, people heard her
message. They did not vote for her. She lost every battleground state.
You yourself have criticized the Harris-Walz campaign for being too
cautious. She may have told the American people, you know, she may have
warned the American people, but she didn’t do it compellingly enough to
win,” Tapper added.
Walz responded, criticizing himself for the crushing defeat in which
the Democrats were unable to secure a single swing state, while also
arguing that Harris attempted to warn Americans regarding Trump’s
policies.
“I do think the challenge for Democrats, and this is, I think, a
structural problem that’s going to take a lot more thinking. Why, with
all of that out there, did they not think we were any better than that?
And they didn’t, and I’m very concerned with the folks who stayed home,”
Walz added.
Tapper’s comments were in reference to Harris’s speech last Thursday,
where she spoke on the “unconstitutional threat” that is the Trump
administration, adding that “I’m not here to say I told you so.”
“We’re seeing people stay quiet. We are seeing organizations stay
quiet. We are seeing those who are capitulating to clearly
unconstitutional threats. And these are the things we are witnessing.
Each day in the last few months in our country. And it understandably
creates a great sense of fear. Because you know there were many things
we knew would happen,” Harris stated at the Leading Women Defined Summit
in Dana Point, California.
Walz also revealed that he currently has no plans of running for president in 2028.
“I’m certainly thinking about running again in Minnesota, if that’s
what they want. I am not thinking about running in 2028,” Walz stated.
“In this moment you’re planning for 2028, you’re going to get rolled by
the people in the streets.”
