Former Walz Supporter Says America's 'Cool Dad' Is an Authoritarian Socialist With a TEMPER

When Tim Walz mandated COVID vaccines for government employees (so much for 'my body, my choice', huh?), he got pushback. Including from union members who were impacted by the mandate.

But when one of the union members -- specifically the president of Southeastern Minnesota Building & Construction Trades Council -- questioned him about it, things got heated quickly.

Former Walz supporter says governor ‘flipped out’ when questioned about vaccine mandates

"Tim Walz is an authoritarian socialist and only wants to listen to people that share his worldview," said Nate O'Reilly. https://t.co/BsDKTWddok

More from Alpha News:

O’Reilly says he decided to raise a concern with the governor that had been brewing among his 2,000 union members: the vaccine mandate.
“Walz said, ‘no, no, no, no, I don’t have anything to do with that, you guys are private unions,’” recounted O’Reilly, describing Walz’s response as noticeably agitated.
“I said, ‘yes, you do, because you signed the executive order mandating vaccines for government employees, and that has real repercussions for our members and workers,'” stated O’Reilly.
O’Reilly then asked whether the phrase “my body, my choice” applied to the vaccine, a question he says sent Walz through the roof.
“That’s when he flipped out.”
O’Reilly alleges that this confrontation with Walz led to backlash within his own organization.

I’ve said this many times before. Tim Walz has a very short temper.

My advice to the Trump campaign is to get under his skin early and often.

This is his weakness. He once yelled at the crowd during a candidate forum when he was booed for his response to the pandemic. https://t.co/ixmGTx4gnd pic.twitter.com/adTV9HAT1D

J.D. Vance will do an excellent job getting under Walz's skin.

Per the original poster, the video has no sound. Here's why:

Intentional, highlighting his body language.

Temper, temper.

Throwing that pro-abortion rhetoric back in Walz's face was fantastic.

They're such hypocrites.
