Tim Walz called Elon Musk a dipsh*t and the internet cheered – 17 vote-winning reactions
Tuesday night’s Democratic rally in Wisconsin was packed to the gills and treated to the presence of Barack Obama, introducing the would-be VP Tim Walz.
It’s good to be in Wisconsin with my friend @Tim_Walz! Tune in as we talk about what’s at stake in this election. https://t.co/5ffs7xpBBL

Neither man was in any mood for pulling their punches. Obama ripped into Trump for his ‘word salad’ and increasingly odd behaviour.

Tim Walz had a pop at the former President for his McDonald’s stunt.
Tim Walz has ZERO f*cks to give:
“At McDonald's, he looks more like Ronald McDonald and Ronald wears less makeup. Everything about this guy is fake – next he's going to tell you he's a cop or construction worker because he dances to the Village People."

It wasn’t just Trump in the firing line, however. Listen to this brutal take on Elon Musk‘s involvement in the election campaign.
Gov. Walz: Elon was on that stage jumping around skipping like a dipshit. That guy is literally the richest man in the world, spending millions of dollars to help Donald Trump buy an election. Trump has already promised that he would put Elon in charge of government regulations… pic.twitter.com/u3Gz8Nttw8

“Elon’s on that stage – jumping around, skipping like a dipshit.”
“That guy is literally the richest man in the world, spending millions of dollars to help Trump buy an election.”
The cheer in the hall was echoed online.

I am 100% serious when I say that they will win convincingly if they commit to spending the next two week calling Elon a dipshit. https://t.co/bJgSh8nCY0

If this television writing gig winds down, and I'm still looking for a paycheck or two, I'm going to need consider political speechwriting. Because with this election cycle, and for the first time, I believe I could show up with my big bag of naughtiness and thrive.

"dipshit" is an underused insult and frankly works best when deployed by a middle-aged midwestern father of two https://t.co/bs08jjERbJ

Musk loves a name change, doesn’t he?
Time to rename this site Dipshitter in Elon’s honor https://t.co/BXhW4rviWi
