TRUMP RIPS TIM WALZ AS A “SICK PUPPY,” EXPOSING THE DEMOCRATS’ 2024 MISCALCULATION
Oval Office Candor That Shook the Beltway
President Donald J. Trump was in rare form yesterday, using the full power of his pulpit to torch Minnesota Governor Tim Walz—whom he branded a “sick puppy”—and to remind Americans why the Harris-
Walz ticket crumbled on Election Night 2024. Speaking alongside German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, the President said Walz “dragged down the whole ticket,” adding that Pennsylvania’s Josh Shapiro “would’ve been smarter.” The democratic party has lost their way very likely to never return. Most Americans would love to see President Trump run for a third term in 2028. Is it out of the question? No, and as a matter of fact there is much talk to make that happen in due time.
From Debate Night Misfires to Radical School Policies
Trump’s critique stuck because it mirrored voter frustration. Walz’s underwhelming debate performance—and his push to place menstrual products in boys’ restrooms—alienated suburban parents who flipped decisively to Trump-Vance in the Rust Belt. If you have a classroom story about that policy, send it to news@magadailynews.com; we want to hear from you.
Post-Election Bluster Backfires
Walz didn’t help himself after the loss. In a podcast with California’s Gavin Newsom he bragged about being able to “kick the a–” of Trump voters. Trump pounced, calling the boast “proof Walz still doesn’t understand Main Street.”
Strategic Map, Strategic Mistake
“Had they picked Shapiro, they might have held Pennsylvania,” Trump noted, underscoring how the Keystone State again decided the race. Campaign veterans say that quote resonated in Scranton diners the way “It’s the economy, stupid” once echoed in Little Rock.

Coach or “Semi-Coach”?
Left-leaning outlets love the “Coach Walz” origin story, but Trump dismissed it as “semi-coach—coached a little football for a little while.” That line landed because it captured the gap between Walz’s résumé and the gravitas voters expect in an uncertain world.
Warning Shot for 2028
Walz is reportedly eyeing 2028. Trump’s dismantling serves as a cautionary tale: the MAGA coalition remembers. If you live in Minneapolis and want your voice featured, reach us again at news@magadailynews.com.
