Minnesota Republican Tom Emmer criticized his state governor, Tim Walz, and suggested Kamala Harris’ VP pick was getting a « pass » from liberal media outlets.
House Majority Whip Tom Emmer, R-Minn., sparred with a CNN host on Wednesday and suggested that liberal media outlets give a « pass » to Democratic politicians like Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.
During an appearance on « CNN News Central », Emmer described Walz as a « left-wing radical » who comes across as an « affable Midwesterner. »
« In just six short years in my state of Minnesota, we’ve seen taxes skyrocket. We’ve seen violent crime at record highs and Minnesota families are worse off literally, [Walz] is incredibly pulling the ticket to the far left », he said.
CNN host Sara Sidner questioned why Minnesotans re-elected Waltz if he was the candidate Emmer described. When Emmer continued criticizing Walz’s record, Sidner cut him off and instructed him to « answer the question.
