Trump trashes far-left VP pick Tim Walz, says Dem ticket will turn America ‘communist immediately’

Former President Donald Trump warned Wednesday that Vice President Kamala Harris and her VP pick, Tim Walz, will take the United States straight into communism if they win the 2024 election.

“There’s never been a ticket like this,” Trump, 78, said during an appearance on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” after Harris chose the Minnesota governor as her running mate.

“This is a ticket that would want this country to go communist immediately, if not sooner.”

Elsewhere in the interview, Trump took aim at Walz — a darling of the far left – and insisted he was “thrilled” the Democrats had picked a progressive candidate to complete their presidential ticket.

“He’s a very, very liberal man,” the former commander-in-chief said. “He’s a shocking pick and I’m thrilled. I could not be more thrilled.”

“If you look at his record — with no walls, no security, let everybody in — he’s worse than they are. You know, nobody knew how radical left she was, but he’s a smarter version of her,” Trump added, referring to Harris.

Trump doubled down as he ripped the Midwestern governor’s far-left record dealing with his home state’s stances on everything ranging from migrants and transgender issues to COVID-19 and the Black Lives Matter riots.

“He’s very heavy into transgender, anything transgender, he thinks is great, and he’s not where the country is on anything,” Trump said.

“I think it’s very insulting to anything having to do with making America great again.”
