Radical leftist Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) on Tuesday drew a contrast between the Biden-Harris administration and the Trump administration, telling supporters during his debut in Pennsylvania as vice presidential candidate that “we aren’t going back” to the Trump era.
“Say it with me: ‘We aren’t going back! We aren’t going back.’ We are not going back,” Walz said, trying to energize the crowd. “Get on board, because we need you,” he continued, wrapping up his speech, which centered on banalities such as “values,” orange man bad, and indiscriminate “freedom.”
“Freedom to make your own choices. This leader [Kamala Harris], this compassionate, careful, joyous leader believes in each and every one of you!” he claimed. “My God, you came here tonight because you love this country and you are not going back!”
Under the Biden-Harris administration, prices soared about 20 percent across the board, fueled by massive spending packages; Russia invaded Ukraine; the Afghan government collapsed — and 13 American troops died during the deadly withdrawal — and more migrants invaded the country via the southern border. DHS released at least 99 terrorism suspects into the United States under the Biden-Harris administration, a House report concluded Monday.In contrast, America’s successes under Trump were many.
