Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz mocked Donald Trump Thursday for his clumsy garbage truck gimmick.

“This dude’s nearly 80-years-old,” Walz said at a campaign event in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. “He damn near killed himself getting into a garbage truck.”

The crowd laughed at the Democrat’s reference to a Wednesday incident involving the Trump campaign’s attempt at retribution over President Joe Biden’s garbage gaffe that inflamed MAGA supporters. The GOP nominee donned an orange safety vest and planned a ride in a Trump-branded garbage truck.

    I love Walz so very much. Ever since someone mentioned the Red Foreman comparison, I cannot unsee it.

    It’s so fucking hilarious. This guy is the perfect antidote to so much magabrainz bullshit…

      I saw the comment I believe you’re referencing.

      I repeated it to everyone in my life who would be even remotely receptive and they all loved it.

      Hopefully the original commenter is proud.
