    Shamelessly stolen joke but of course he’s Tampon Tim, aren’t tampons what you use to help stop a red wave?

    Yeah I’m sure the monicker is just destroying poor Mr Walz. What’s next, “Free Food for the Kids Tim”? I’m sure he’d hate that!

      It’s not really weird if you look at it like their brains quit developing at 8 years old. Their entire platform is basically ‘vaginas are gross, school is dumb, I want a bigger allowance, and stranger danger’

        Republicans love developing 8 year old brains.

        So much that they will travel overseas and pay to have sex with it.

        Fun fact: conservative brains have larger amygdalas, leading to greater response and sensitivities to fear and disgust.

        They also have smaller Anterior Cingulate Cortexes which relate to… Pattern recognition and pattern dissonance lol.

        So if you know conservatives with a strong fear and disgust response while also being literally incapable of seeing their own hypocrisy / cognitive dissonance… This is why.

    2023 Minnesota law Walz signed mandating free menstruation products in all public school restrooms used by students in grades four to 12.

    Yep, that’s a scarlet badge of honor in my book.

        I agree. He should just point out that it’s weird for them to attack him over this. Making sure kids have food and menstrual products available to the ones that need them are good things.

          Yeah now that you mention it, it does seem kinda weird to nickname your opponent based on a successful piece of legislation. Like the idea that this nickname in particular is a negative thing is so incredibly immature, it’s a bit odd. Maybe try again idk.

      Just tell people he’s not the one who walks around in public with a maxi pad on his ear for no reason whatsoever.

      I’m willing to bet the students using tampons at those middle/high schools follow the directions.
