Trump Defends Harsh Criticism of Tim Walz as 'Something Wrong'

President Donald Trump has once again stirred the pot with a sharp jab at Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, standing firm on a controversial Thanksgiving remark that’s got everyone talking.

According to Breitbart, on Thursday, Trump took to Truth Social to voice his frustrations, and by Sunday, he was doubling down on his stance while speaking to reporters mid-flight from Palm Beach to Washington, D.C.

This isn’t just a passing comment—it’s a full-on critique of Walz, the Democratic vice presidential nominee, wrapped in a broader attack on immigration policies and state leadership in Minnesota.

Thanksgiving Post Sparks Initial Outrage

Let’s rewind to Thursday, when Trump’s Truth Social post dropped like a holiday bombshell, labeling Walz as out of touch and unfit to handle Minnesota’s challenges.

He didn’t stop there, claiming the state is being overwhelmed by refugees, particularly from Somalia, and painting a grim picture of public safety while accusing Walz of inaction due to either fear or incompetence.

Trump also aimed at Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, questioning her legitimacy and criticizing her outspoken views on America, while tying her background to his broader immigration concerns.

Trump’s Bold Claims on Immigration

In that same post, Trump proposed a drastic measure: a complete halt to migration from certain regions to, in his words, let the U.S. system “fully recover.”

“The country’s refugee burden is the leading cause of social dysfunction in America, something that did not exist after World War II,” Trump declared, framing his policy as a return to a supposed golden era (Truth Social).

It’s a statement that’s sure to rile up the progressive crowd, but for many frustrated with unchecked borders, it’s a call to action that hits home.

Sunday Showdown on Air Force One

Fast forward to Sunday, and Trump wasn’t backing off one bit as he chatted with a reporter aboard Air Force One, reinforcing his earlier jab at Walz.

“Yeah, I think there’s something wrong with him. Do you have a problem with it?” Trump quipped, brushing off any notion of regret over his choice of words.

That’s classic Trump—unapologetic and ready to stand by his gut, even when the left cries foul over tone rather than substance.

Walz Responds with Defiance

Not one to stay silent, Gov. Walz fired back on Sunday, addressing the personal dig with a mix of defiance and dismissal. “It is a badge of honor to be insulted by the president,” Walz retorted, attempting to flip the script and wear the criticism as a point of pride.

Yet, one wonders if that bravado masks a deeper concern about how this spat plays out with voters who are tired of political correctness but still value civility in discourse.
