Tim Walz’s 2022 gubernatorial opponent blasts VP pick as ‘wolf in sheep’s clothing’ — and has advice for JD Vance
SUMMARY
Dr. Scott Jensen, who ran against Tim Walz in Minnesota’s 2022 gubernatorial race, warned voters that Walz is a “wolf in sheep’s clothing” despite his friendly demeanor. Jensen described Walz as someone who could be ruthless when necessary, claiming he often goes back on his word for political gain. He also advised JD Vance, Walz’s Republican opponent in the upcoming vice-presidential debate, to be cautious about Walz potentially backing out. Jensen recounted how Walz previously promised more debates during their gubernatorial race but later limited their visibility by avoiding statewide televised events. Jensen also criticized Walz’s handling of various controversies, including his response to the George Floyd protests and the COVID-19 school closures, accusing him of deflecting blame.
