Trump ‘couldn’t run that damn McFlurry machine if it cost him anything!’ Walz quipped

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz on Tuesday hit out at Donald Trump’s anti-union record as he promised that he and Vice President Kamala Harris would take the pro-labor agenda that made his state one of the best places to work and bring it to the rest of the country.

Speaking to the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees union in Los Angeles, the Democratic vice presidential nominee — the first labor union member on a presidential ticket since Ronald Reagan ran as a Republican in the 1980 election — slammed Trump’s record while touting Harris’s background as a former fast food worker.

“You know Vice President Harris grew up in a middle class family, picked up shifts at that McDonald’s as a student. I keep asking this to make a contrast here, can you simply picture Donald Trump working at a McDonald’s, trying to make a McFlurry or something?” he said.

    Every single major media operation was holding their breath and stomping their feet to demand Shapiro, I was shocked when she picked Walz.

      Really? Since when do Democrats want that whiny brat who can’t even get a woman wet? The Republicans can keep him.

        Different Shapiro. (Well, maybe him also, but not Ben Shapiro, the one infamous for this.) They’re talking about Josh Shipiro (no relation), the Democrat governor of Pennsylvania.
