    Former President Donald Trump, speaking at a rally in Tucson, Arizona, on Thursday, referred to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as the “future vice president,” went viral on social media.

    “I was very happy because I got the endorsement of the vice president’s family, and I got the endorsement of the vice president’s brother,” Trump said, in an apparent reference to Vice President Kamala Harris’ running mate. The gaffe sparked confusion and a flurry of responses online.

    If he didn’t have a cult the electoral map would be landslide blue.

  3. Yes this is another brain melt from him. This was at his Arizona rally. He kept calling Tim Walz “the Vice President.”

    The first video is of Trump trashing ABC and Kamala on policy while repeating JD’s stupid buzzword “platitudes”… (Jesus man, rotate in new words, you sound like an imbecile).

    Anyhow, I’m pointing this out because NEWSWEEK put it as the top video on that page… You have to dig deeper to see the actual video from the article. It was a free ad for Trump disguised as part of this article.

    The old man didn’t mean that, he’s simply confused as can be expected from the elderly.

    He would likely take a deal to walk away if it meant all previous crimes were waived off. But even if Harris wanted (or could) do that we all know that he would keep breaking laws

  7. I’m sure the MAGA fans who cracked up as they circulated the picture of Biden in a Trump hat will have a million excuses for this.

  8. This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-tim-walz-future-vice-president-1953610) reduced by 74%. (I’m a bot)

    > "In a stunningly senile moment, Donald Trump forgets that Tim Walz is running for Vice President, and that he isn't currently the Vice President. It's clear Donald Trump is too old to run for President," the Harris campaign posted on X, fueling the ongoing debate about age in the political arena.

  9. I love the quote from Tim Walz’s brother at the bottom of the article.

    > “I was just trying to make sure my friends knew I didn’t share the same views,” he told NewsNation.

    “Hey Jeff, you don’t think the same way as your brother Tim, do you?”

    “Aw hell naw, I’m a straight-up asshole! I’ll kick a sandwich out of a toddler’s hands, I don’t give a toot!”

    “Attaboy!”

  10. There’s going to be big news coming from Republicans next week.

    Trump is going to endorse Harris for President saying he’s too old and weak.

    Trump will vote for Harris.

  11. Don’t get complacent! Please make sure to check your registration and vote! Also please consider volunteering to help get the vote out!!

    It’s easier for him to think of Kamala as the president so of course he thinks that Walz is the vice president, otherwise he’d have to come up with new content. He can’t update Joe -> Kamala in his mind, so he just did a find and replace. All of his speeches are pretty much word for word the same, maybe some extra racism but otherwise the same. He can’t fathom that someone would willingly give up power or even the pursuit of power, but a coup to gain power is something he can grasp so that’s how he sees it. He can’t adjust, it’s been almost two months since Joe Biden dropped out and he still hasn’t adapted.

    So, Walz is even more like us in that he also has some crazy ass Trumper family members that he doesn’t speak to often.
