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.
It’s the correct direction for USA. Labor protection, women’s rights, care for children, taxes on corporations and 1%, not Trump. The last one this month, oddly became the least important to me. Biden was a solution to a problem (Trump) and now he’s out of the way, some of us are very excited that it’s looking like “not Trump” is the easiest and those other issues will be our running platform.
Walz also just has a joyous charisma. Which is a welcome change from the last decade.
