HARRIS FAULKNER (HOST): Wow it is a buzzword war. All right, so the MAGA war room turned the attack around by posting: "Tim Walz is a weird radical liberal. What could be weirder than signing a bill requiring schools to stock tampons in boys' bathrooms or what could be weirder than signing legislation allowing minors to receive sex change operations?" And here actually is a photo of Tim Walz signing that legislation as governor alongside a 12-year-old boy who said he identified as a girl, Gianno.
GIANNO CALDWELL (FOX NEWS CONTRIBUTOR): You know, it's completely clear to me that these folks on the left who are using this weird commentary have been around open cans of paint because these statements are completely delusional. They are divorced from reality, and certainly the name calling that they accuse trump of is something that they are willing to do if they think that it's going to help their poll numbers. The truth is they are a very weird party. That's why a lot of independents, especially under Joe Biden were saying you know what, maybe I need to get back to the good old days with Donald Trump because what they've been advocating for has not helped all Americans. In fact it has eradicated a number of wages. Wages for medium Americans, inflation has been an issue, and certainly the border. And this man has endorsed an open border. He has allowed for, as Pete has mentioned, immigrants to get free healthcare, a number of things that African-Americans, a constituency that they really need, that they really desperately need, are against. They are opposed to because they have been usurping resources from the black community. So when considering these things, I wonder how much did she go into her thought process around this constituency or she just thinks well they will vote for me because I'm black? That's essentially what the thinking was.
