Fact Check: The Media Said Trump Thanked Walz in 2020, This Video Proves They Lied
It sounds like the ultimate endorsement of the job Kamala Harris’ running mate did as governor of Minnesota: leaked audio of a phone call between then-President Donald Trump and Gov. Tim Walz, in the midst of the George Floyd riots, praising Walz for the job he was doing.
And while the Harris-Walz campaign is touting it, there’s one thing they won’t tell you: It’s been edited so dramatically that the initial meaning of the former president’s words has been entirely changed.
In case you haven’t seen or heard it, this is the audio that the Harris-Walz campaign has been flogging since Walz was picked, with Trump allegedly saying he was “very happy” with the job Walz was doing.
Unearthed audio: Trump tells Tim Walz in 2020 he is “very happy” with his handling of George Floyd protests: “I fully agree with the way he handled it… [Tim Walz is an] excellent guy”
