Tim Walz is a notorious liar who tends to lie to avoid trouble. This was revealed by the media just 24 hours after he was chosen as Kamala’s running mate.
Townhall has just published this tidbit. He’s been caught several times trying to redefine his legend.
Recent court documents dating from 2022 show significant contradictions between Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), and claims Tim Walz made when he was charged with driving under the influence.
Walz blamed his “deafness,” for fleeing from police in 1995 after he was pulled over by the police for driving drunk. He had gone over 95 miles an hour in a zone with a speed limit of 55. He claimed that he “wasn’t drunk” despite failing both a field sobriety and preliminary breath test.
In court documents, it is noted that Walz was booked at Dawes County Jail with “a strong odor alcoholic beverage emitting from his breath and person”.
In court, however, his lawyer gave a completely different account of what occurred that night. It had nothing to do with deafness.
According to court documents, “Walz believed someone was chasing” him. “The officer did not turn on his red light, and then he — someone came up fast behind him and he had no idea what they were doing. He sped up, afraid that someone was chasing him. It turned out that a state trooper was following him. The faster he ran, the faster it went.
Walz was charged with DUI but after entering into a plea deal, the charge was reduced from DUI to reckless driving.
A campaign manager claimed, when he ran for office for the first time in 2006, that the incident occurred due to the “deafness”, which he acquired while in the National Guard. (According to the campaign, at the time, this issue had been surgically rectified).
Walz has a problem. We’re still not sure what part of his past is true. Politics is full of these types of people. This guy has been portrayed as someone he is not, a Midwesterner who is relatable by all. Almost every story about him is misrepresented in some shape or form.
It makes you wonder whether the “everyman” part of that folk song is also a lie.
