In a speech with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow, the Minnesota Governor was asked what advice he would give to “average people” against the agenda, President Donald Trump has implemented since returning to office.

“You know the overcome expression, ‘The frog in the boiling water?’ We have been in the damn pot for too long, ”Walz said. It thinks of your neighbors. It writes and puts these members of Congress – see there is no spine among these people – but this is real. “

Walz then offered some sympathy for exhausted democratic voters.

“To the voters I am with this too. Everyone is tired. Believe me I get it,” Walz said. “It was pure hell and the disappointment and frustration, and I know you know, soul-search — what could we have done to do the matter? Because we knew this was coming. We knew the implication. And they ‘throw so much at us, that we are tired.

The Democratic Governor continued to complain about how the country spent three days discussing whether billionaire Trump Ally and the Department of Government Efficiency co-founder Elon Musk, whom he referred to “President Musk” had given a “Nazi-Honnør” by a Trump-Insecting Rally last week.

“Of course he did it, but it’s a distraction from what, I think you said it, this is ‘games on’ things right here,” Walz continued. “And I’m worried about these federal employees because they see they are in a hard place that some of these people, especially those who do good work on environmental considerations, about justice for people, around, you know, reform of criminal Justice Reform, all the things that make our community better.

Tim Walz thought his lack of wealth was ‘real flex’ against Trump: ‘How … did we lose to a billionaire?’

Surround you with people who understand this and recognize the things they went for today is basically a big part of what society is doing and people Likes to have clean water and hospitals and safety and roads and airports, all the things they go for … We have to find that voice.

Walz also called on the Democrats to “use the courts,” but expressed caution, suggesting that Trump does not care what the courts are saying, even if his party took that route.
