Trump and leading Republicans have launched attacks on Tim Walz, labeling him as "far left," "dangerously liberal," and a "radical" choice for VP by Kamala Harris. Trump posted on social media that Harris's running mate would "unleash HELL ON EARTH and open our borders to the worst criminals". Republicans have focused on Walz's response to the 2020 riots in Minneapolis over George Floyd's murder, claiming he waited too long to deploy the National Guard. Republicans claim Harris and Walz would be the "most extreme ticket in history" and that Walz would weaken Biden in key Midwest states.
