The debate revealed that Tim Walz is a fraudulent “everyman.”

If Donald Trump wins this election, choosing Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate may be at the top of her list of mistakes in the autopsy of Kamala Harris’ campaign.

Much of America first got to know Walz during Tuesday’s vice presidential debate.

Unlike his appearance at the Democratic National Convention, the words of the Walz we saw on the debate stage were not written for him via teleprompter.

And the unfiltered version underscored a very obvious fact about the governor: He is obviously a fake.

First of all, how about that “Coach Walz” nonsense he brought up again on Tuesday?

Let’s face it: working as an assistant volunteer coach isn’t exactly something to brag about. Walz always leaves out the “assistant volunteer” part of the title in order to portray himself as the successor to Vince Lombardi.

Then there was Walz’s goofy ’80s sitcom dad shtick, which is supposed to be endearing and relatable but is just as heinous as one of Kamala’s fraudulent accents.

Just look at his answer when asked why he claims he was in Hong Kong during the Tiananmen Square protests when he was actually in Nebraska.

“I will be the first to tell you that I have put my heart into my community. I tried to do my best, but I wasn’t perfect,” he said. “And I’m a dick sometimes, but that’s what it’s always been about.”

How comforting to know that a self-proclaimed fool could be just a heartbeat away from controlling the nuclear codes.

This filibustered answer lasted a full two minutes without addressing why he lied about being in China at that critical moment, prompting co-host Margaret Brennan to press him for an actual answer.

“Governor, just to follow up, the question was: Can you explain the discrepancy?” she asked.

“No,” he said. “All I said about it was. . . I got there this summer and I messed it up, so I’m just going to do it, that’s what I said.”

Ah, him misspelled.

Who among us hasn’t made the mistake of claiming we were in Asia when we were actually on the other side of the world?

The fraudster lied — just as he lied about his service in war zones when in reality he abandoned his National Guard unit when it was scheduled to deploy to Iraq.

Walz’s final statement was a nonsense that underscored his fundamental falsification.

“Kamala Harris brings us a new path forward. It brings us a politics of joy,” he said with a serious face. “It brings real solutions for the middle class.”

It was truly astounding listening to this lame used car salesman as Walz tried to convince us that the sitting vice president, whose administration is responsible for this disastrous economy, is the candidate for change that will “give us a new path forward.” while we all enjoy their “politics of joy”.

Kamala has been in office for more than 1,350 days, yet we are supposed to pretend the Biden-Harris administration never existed.

Walz was chosen primarily because of his appeal as a regular Midwestern man who the Democratic leadership was confident would win the loyalty of workers in key swing states.

Harris can’t win without the Rust Belt, so Walz is on the ticket — even though she had the option of popular Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro.

But a pre-debate New York Times/Siena poll debunked that expectation: Walz, it turns out, is struggling inland.

For example, he is viewed favorably by only 44% of voters in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Michigan; in Ohio, that number drops to 41%.

And men haven’t taken his side: A CBS poll conducted before the debate found Walz viewed favorably by 58% of women, but only 48% of men.

Stupid and effeminate behavior will do this.

After weeks of hiding from the press, Tim Walz had a terrible night on Tuesday – so it may be the last most voters see of him before Election Day.

This is what happens when you are revealed to be as fake as a $3 bill.
