Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz mocked billionaire Elon Musk for his awkwardly jovial introduction at a recent rally for former President Donald Trump.
In early October, Musk was welcomed onstage during Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania — the site of his attempted assassination just months prior. As he got on stage, Musk joyfully jumped around as the crowd cheered him on. When Trump let him take the podium, he referenced his black MAGA hat and claimed he was “dark MAGA.” Musk was predictably mocked for the bizarre appearance.
On Tuesday, Walz decided to share his two cents during a rally in Madison, Wisconsin. He jokingly referred to Musk as Trump’s “running mate” and asked where Ohio Sen. JD Vance has been.
“I’m gonna talk about his running mate,” Walz said, drawing boos from the crowd. “His running mate, Elon Musk. Seriously, where is Senator Vance after he got asked the simplest question in the world at the debate? ‘Did Donald Trump lose the 2020 election?’ And after two weeks, he finally said, ‘No, he didn’t.’ That’s where he’s been spending his time. So look, Elon is on that stage, jumping around, skipping like a dipshit on these things. You know it.”
“Think about it,” said Walz. “Think about that. That guy is literally the richest man in the world, spending millions of dollars to help Donald Trump buy an election.”
