Trump Once Told Walz He Was ‘Very Happy’ With His Job as Minnesota Guv
Donald Trump wasn’t always so sour on Tim Walz.
The former president spoke glowingly of Walz’s response to riots in Minneapolis after George Floyd’s murder in 2020—praise that Trump’s campaign tried to walk back on Wednesday.
“I know Gov. Walz is on the phone, and we spoke, and I fully agree with the way he handled it the last couple of days,” Trump said in 2020, according to a call resurfaced in an ABC News report. “I was very happy with the last couple of days, Tim. You called up big numbers and the big numbers knocked them out so fast, it was like bowling pins.”
