Tim Walz Wants Us to Feel Sorry For Him Because He Has to 'Pay Bills'

Failed Democratic Vice Presidential candidate Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.) is trying to gain sympathy after a devastating loss by crying about the struggles of managing bills and responsibilities he faces as the country’s “poorest” vice president candidate that Americans face daily. Walz shed light on how it felt to be the least richest person to run alongside a presidential candidate despite making over $100,000 annually, while most Americans bring in far less than that.

During an interview, Walz said he thought it was a “flex” that he had to “pay bills” like all Americans and appeal to voters because he is “poor.”

“I thought it was a real flex when the Wall Street Journal pointed out that I might have been the least wealthy person to ever run for vice president,” he said. “I thought that would be something people say, well, this guy knows where we’re coming from. He’s had to pay his bills.”

NEW: Tim Walz said he thought it was a "flex" that he was the poorest VP candidate in history, says he thought people would respect that he has to "pay his bills."

They still don't get it.

So he thought he was "flexing" by virtue signaling his relative poverty?

Maybe don't spend all your money going to China Tim.
