Governor Tim Waltz (D-MN) is tired of hearing attacks on masculinity from the Maga movement and boasts that he can “kick most of their asses.”
Walz's Seething Outburst occurred in an episode of California Governor Gavin Newsom's Podcast released this week.
“And I'm not spending a lot of time thinking about this, and it baffled me how much time they spent trying to attack that they're not masculine enough in their vision,” Waltz said of Kamala Harris' loss campaign in 2024 as a running buddy for former vice president.
“I used straw, so I saw Fox News come in for a few days. “Hell, man, what am I? Do you drink other milkshakes?” But they were focusing on that,” he insisted, claiming that this “obsession” and “strangeness” lie in his critics.
“We buy their frames on these issues of sexuality… but all of them was that they spent all their time on Fox News, which he continued.
“I thought this part of identity was more important than the actual material behind it,” Walz said in a conversation before Newsmu jumped in.
“Well, they've been doing it for decades. I mean, they saw the Welfare Queen. They saw the Southern Strategy. We've seen it many times. It's an old playbook and we're as stupid as we want to allow this with CRT and ESG, Dei and every three letter word… The left has to stop the reaction and get off the defense.
“We have to attack. We have been able to meet people where they are. But I'm thinking this too. And this is part of the conversation I have.
“I think I can kick most of their ass. I think so,” Waltz said.
“I don't know if we'll fall where we want to be. Well, we're going to challenge you and here's the type of WWE fight,” Newsom said, “We're losing a lot of these guys online.”

The interview suggests he is considering a 2028 presidential bid, which in particular suggests he is frowning on tours of the Republican home district.
It comes to the waltz heel New Yorker radio hour, “If I think I can offer something… I'd certainly think about it,” he said running for a higher office.
