A friend of mine was telling me about it, said Fox News was going on about how they “don’t like the way he moves.” Whatever that means.
“Twitchy Tim” is what Fox News decided on.
Why do these people always have to have some stupidass nickname for someone that’s not based on anything related to their platform or policies?
Because their god emperor TruMp likes those elementary school names and so they must follow
Because they don’t want to talk about truth, the programs, policies etc.
Also how the hell do you sell Trump otherwise? He can’t even align a coherent phrase to explicit anything.
I will admit I found “Tampon Tim” funny, but that was because of the irony in how it was meant to make fun of him but instead it helped spread the word about his history of progressive policies.
Retards like to hear it.
Because some of them mentally never left high school. So they pick 'insults" that were “funny” and made them “cool”, back when they peaked, and those appeal to the rest of the faux-news followers who did the same.
Yeah it was a rhetorical question. I wonder if anyone has ever attempted to point out to them that the “other side” doesn’t use these kinds of nicknames?
There’s many such nickname based on trumps fake tan. We can’t really claim superiority on the nickname thing. It IS funny though.
Right online and in memes. Are those used by cable news networks and candidates at their rallies?
It was hard for Republicans to compete with The Onion’s devastating exposé alleging that Walz’ “aw, shucks” persona is merely a facade concealing his true “gee whiz” tendencies.
Link to the article in case anyone else hasn’t seen it yet.
When reached for comment, a spokesperson for the Harris-Walz campaign denied the governor had ever lost his temper and told anyone to hold their horses.
According to a poll I saw a while ago he’s MORE POPULAR THAN TAYLOR SWIFT.
I was not aware such a feat was possible.
He should drop an album while he’s on top!
He’s repairing cars while talking policy.
He never did show us how to replace the vacuum-operated cruise control in his Scout. I was looking forward to seeing how it compared to the same system in my old Jetta.
Among all of the people included in the survey, no one finished below Vance.
The couch did.
Vance never lets the couch finish.
You think he could finish a couch? I think it would eventually fake it, tell him what a good boy he was, and then roll over and let him sleep in the wet spot.
Like my mom!
I’ve never had a problem finishing your mom, not sure what you’re doing wrong
Your mom never tells me she’s proud of me… She just talks about how much better you are than I am.
My mom too…
Aww, buddy I hope you know that you’re the best!
I’m just grateful for my participation trophy!
I’m gonna get diabetes from all this wholesomeness.
That’s a good boy!
It worked in making them seem like douche-bags.
Like they needed any help with that lol
The father we all wish we had.
I appreciate that, I guess meme, going around that the reason he resonates with so many of us is because he’s the father we could have had if Fox News hadn’t corrupted him.
👆💯👆
What about the time he stopped to help an old lady push her car out of a snowbank? Did they even think to criticize him for that? I swear, GOP opposition research has gotten lazy.
not that great still maybe Democrats should stop acting like Republicans
would not have to put out so much effort to make themselves look good if they would just support the people
Tim Walz: 40% positive, 33% negative
Taylor Swift: 33% positive, 27% negative
Kamala Harris: 48% positive, 45% negative
It’s nice to be able to rely on having dog shit stupid takes from the same username all the time. Consistency is key. Keep it up.
? Walz has gotten tons of progressive policies through with a single seat majority in his state
Not only that, but
He was a faculity advisor of a gay-straight alliance in the 90s when that was not very socially at all
He’s got a strong pro-union background
He has not acted like a republican
How are they going to smear a guy that pulled over to ask if I had everything I needed when he saw me changing my tire, checked again on his way back and handed me a cup of coffee with pastry?
Later, he was my neighbor for a while. Came over when he saw me working on projects, let me borrow tools I didn’t have, and occasionally he’d borrow one of my tools. Such as a little trailer I had, and one tire had a slow leak, and when he brought it back he had replaced the valve stem and greased the wheel bearings, pumped up all four tires, and took it through the wash.
None of that is true, but like you could try to talk shit about that guy like Walz, but to anyone that knows him you sound fucking dumb and weird.
You know when like some new friend comes along and privately tries to talk shit to you about one of your old friends, not knowing that you’re old friends? That’s how it feels hearing any of these god damn super weirdos talk shit about a genuinely nice, honorable dude like Walz.
The gop only does four things effectively:
- Shoots kids
- Sexually assaults kids
- Accuses others of abusing kids
- Avoids discussing all of those dead kids
Also their main purpose for existing: Benefitting the ownership class. They do that the best.

The bar was so low all he had to do was order donuts without acting like a serial killer
I’m JD Vance, I’m uh running for Vice President.
…
…
Okay
And how long have you had this account on Lemmy?
Okay
Lmao for real that clip was almost as awkward as Scott’s Tots
It reminded me of a clip of mitt Romney greeting a woman saying something like “Hello, I like the weather when it’s…nice outside.” So robotic and strange. I knew right then he was one of the lizard people. Possibly a robot.
!truthabouttimwalz@lemmy.world is you want to know the real Time Walz.
Lol this was a lot more wholesome than I expected
Yeah but so is he
I think it’s hilarious somebody pointed out that he’s younger than Weird Al.
This messes with my head a bit tbh…
We grow up so fast… 🥺
BUT MUH TAMPON TIM MEMES
Anecdotal, but relevant: I had forgotten what the “smears” were supposed to be until I saw this and went “oh, right, they did that”.
When I first saw it, I thought it was in suport of him until I realized who was posting it
Same thing for “all lives matter” where I thought it was someone agreeing with black lives matter the first time I heard it. Didn’t realize someone could get so close to the point and miss it there
Same, I didn’t get why All Lives Matter was a bad thing at first. I’m like “yes! we’re all humans and everyone matters!” Then I saw who was posting it and had to reaccess.
There are campgain signs out that say “Law and Order Matters”
… sponsored by the local Republicans.
I assumed it was a Dem sign then I saw who sponsored it, then I assumed it was a joke, then I realized that no, it’s real and they are just that deluded.
BUT…. HE FED HUNGRY CHILDREN!!!😡😡😡
The other argument I saw against him was he admitted when he made a mistake one time. I just remember it cause that struck me as so strange. Like… Yeah that’s awesome. Admitting you were wrong and trying to fix your mistake is a pretty damn good quality. It would be so annoying if he thought he knew everything about everything and never ever admitted he was wrong about anything even when he- oooooh it makes sense now.
