Remember Tim Walz? The bumblin’, fumblin’ Minnesota Democrat governor who then-Vice President Kamala Harris inexplicably chose as her running mate for the presidential election? After the pair got slaughtered at the polls, they’ve both been licking their wounds as Team Trump reinvigorates America. When they do make the occasional appearance, though, they inevitably faceplaint and remind us of exactly how lucky we are that they didn’t win.
Walz continued the trend on Wednesday when he appeared on CNN with host Kasie Hunt, and immediately botched a question about the leadership of the Democrat Party going forward. He seemed paralyzed with fear as he was unable even to name a single credible figure who might be able to bring them out of their current malaise and dysfunction.
Watch as his mind works furiously to come up with an answer:
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz looks like a deer in the headlights after CNN anchor Kasie Hunt asked, “Who is the leader of the Democratic Party?”

“We’re not going to have a charismatic leader right in here and save us from this.”
“Our job is, of people who do have power to enact things. We d-mn sure better be doing it, and we better be there standing alongside them.”

Like his former boss, Kamala Harris, Walz likes to make pronouncements as if they’re important—until you realize he didn’t really say anything. This latest one will go down as one of his more ludicrous musings, as what he said makes little sense (emphasis mine):
Walz appeared on CNN’s The Arena with Kasie Hunt Wednesday to discuss President Donald Trump’s joint congressional address. Hunt asked the governor who he thinks is the Democratic leader right now.
The 60-year-old Democrat paused for a few beats before answering.
“I think the voting public, right now, is what I would say,” Walz responded. “We’re not going to have a charismatic leader ride in and save us from this.”
It’s as if he just admitted that the Dems are cooked and their future is dark. How, Mr. Walz, do you plan on “saving us from this” without a charismatic leader? You think House Minority Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), who has the magnetism of a newt, is going to rouse the electorate? Maybe Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) with his pathetic, impotent chants?
.@kasie Hunt's reaction is priceless when Tim Walz answers that the leader of the Dem Party is "the voters."

Yeah, they just hired Trump, not Harris/Walz pic.twitter.com/fKUd9pcxNF
His other point was equally absurd, though: “I think the voting public, right now, is what I would say,” he responded to the question of who’s going to lead the party forward. Tim, Tim, Tim: the voting public just voted in November, and they said no thanks to you and Harris.
The good news for conservatives is that “leaders” like Walz are apparently the Democrats’ A-Team, which means Republicans will likely keep creaming them at the polls till they come up with something superior. But there’s even better news: Walz thinks Kamala “certainly… could be” the Dems’ nominee in ’28. Oh, please, yes.
America has seen that movie before, and it was a box-office bomb. I definitely advise them to run it again and see if they get different results.
Democrats are increasingly on the ropes and becoming unhinged as Trump implements his vision for America.
