Axelrod: Walz “delivered some heavy blows” to the GOP ticket

Democratic strategist David Axelrod said Vice President Harris’s new running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, “delivered some heavy blows” to the GOP ticket Tuesday night but did so with a “gentle humor” that was well received by the audience.

"I live in the Midwest, and, you know, they talk about 'Midwest nice.' He delivered some heavy blows, but he did it with that kind of gentle humor that actually lands well," Axelrod said of Walz on a CNN panel Tuesday night, responding to the Democratic ticket's debut campaign event together.
