Kamala Harris and her running mate Tim Walz must have taken a masterclass in unsavory political tactics recently, as they have shown an alarming penchant for hurling insults not just at the Trump-Vance ticket, but also at the millions of Americans who support it. Walz, in a fit of creativity, dubbed JD Vance “weird,” but then somehow found the courage to brand Trump supporters as “Nazis.” This comparison arrived just after Trump held a rally at Madison Square Garden, an iconic venue with a history that Walz seems to have overlooked in his desperate bid to vilify the former president and his backers.
The unfortunate truth is that Harris has chosen to ignore Walz’s inflammatory remarks, effectively giving her tacit approval. The Trump-Vance campaign has called out this silence for what it is—disqualifying, disgusting, and frankly, a shameful display of political gamesmanship. Instead of condemning such outrageous claims, Harris, in a recent local interview, pivoted to a vague discussion about unity, sidestepping a direct question about her running mate’s incendiary accusations.
'Disqualifying': Harris and Walz Both Keep Equating Trump Supporters to Nazis https://t.co/zPq0wucSGJ

During a pro-abortion rally over the weekend in Nevada, Walz found himself embroiled in controversy while discussing the “direct parallel” he saw between Trump’s rally and Nazi gatherings. When questioned by a reporter about his dubious comparisons, he danced around accountability with all the grace of a two-legged puppy. His ultimate refusal to clarify whether he stood by his outlandish statements only deepened the skepticism around his credibility.
As if that weren’t enough to send educators scrambling for fresh history lesson materials, Harris joined in the fun by avoiding her own responsibility during interviews, though she managed to indulge in the tired leftist charade of comparing Trump to Hitler. This talking point was lifted straight from a thoroughly debunked article by a component of “The Atlantic” known for spinning questionable tales against the right. Harris and Walz aren’t just peddling fear; they’re deploying well-worn slanders against anyone who doesn’t share their political views, reminiscent of the ridiculous “MAGA Republicans” rhetoric pushed by Joe Biden in the previous election cycle.
Looking back, Biden’s name-calling did little to charm voters, with many of them outright rejecting his narrative. Despite his desperate attempts to paint Republicans as a threat to democracy during his ominous Philadelphia speech, voters still went to the polls and delivered a mixed bag in results for the Democrats. Now, with the election looming and Trump actually on the ballot, Harris and Walz face a foe emboldened by eager supporters ready to take the backlash of the left’s insults head-on.
In a last-ditch effort, Harris and Walz have shaken up their closing arguments by opting for insults over substance, but as recent polling suggests, that strategy may just blow up in their faces. Half the country won’t be forgetting a president calling them “garbage” anytime soon, and little wonder that the current Democratic narrative is drowning in its own vitriol. Hold onto your popcorn—this election is gearing up to be more entertaining than a Saturday morning cartoon.
