Vice President Kamala Harris chose Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her running mate on Tuesday and Republicans are making their thoughts heard.
Party voices have called Walz everything from weird to an extreme socialist. Among the many to comment on Walz was Donald Trump's Campaign Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt. She put out a statement about Harris' choice for a vice presidential running mate, calling him a "West Coast wannabe."
According to Trump's official website, this is the statement they released on Waltz:
"It's no surprise that San Francisco Liberal Kamala Harris wants West Coast wannabe Tim Walz as her running-mate – Walz has spent his governorship trying to reshape Minnesota in the image of the Golden State. While Walz pretends to support Americans in the Heartland, when the cameras are off, he believes that rural America is 'mostly cows and rocks'. From proposing his own carbon-free agenda, to suggesting stricter emission standards for gas-powered cars, and embracing policies to allow convicted felons to vote, Walz is obsessed with spreading California's dangerously liberal agenda far and wide. If Walz won't tell voters the truth, we will: just like Kamala Harris, Tim Walz is a dangerously liberal extremist, and the Harris-Walz California dream is every American's nightmare."
Here are some other reactions from Republicans on her veep pick:
The Harris/Walz ticket is the most radical, left-wing ticket in history.

Walz sat on his hands while Minneapolis burned during the 2020 BLM riots.#HarrisWalz leads today's Democrat Party—a party that prioritizes illegal immigrants and criminals over law-abiding Americans.
Tim Walz signed a bill forcing schools to put tampons in boys bathrooms. He says socialism is just “neighborliness.” He’s for sanctuary cities! We all knew Kamala was ditzy, but this just shows she’s dumb as a bag of rocks! Trump-Vance are gonna destroy these commie brats. I’m… https://t.co/EkVPzJnNgj

What could be weirder than signing a bill requiring schools to stock tampons in boys' bathrooms?
Or weirder than signing legislation allowing minors to receive sex change operations? pic.twitter.com/2kqTQ9CzfT
Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are the most extreme ticket in recent presidential history — they want to decriminalize illegal immigration, end private health insurance, reduce sentences for violent criminals, and make your energy bills more expensive. #mnleg #VP

Not only did Tim Walz govern the “mostly peaceful protesters” in Minnesota, but he also changed the state flag. https://t.co/0pG5yPzyTb
The Democrats picked an old white guy to become their next Vice President.

Gov Tim Walz accused us of “banning books.”

Your daily reminder that when they accuse us of “banning books” they’re referring to p**nogr*ph*c books which are offered to kids in schools across the country.
The Democrat VP candidate wants your kids reading p**n in school!!! 🚩🚩 pic.twitter.com/Vmpek31R2n

Kamala Harris raised funds to help bail rioters out of jail.
The Harris/Walz ticket is pro-crime and chaos.
