MAGA Is So ‘Desperate’ They’ve Now Gone After Tim Walz’s Dog
Republicans spent Monday ginning up a quickly-disproven conspiracy about vice presidential nominee Tim Walz’s dog—apparently because none of their attacks have landed and they’re getting “desperate”, as MSNBC anchor Jen Psaki said later that day.
A Townhall columnist, Missouri’s attorney general, Donald Trump Jr.’s wife, the founder of Turning Point USA, and others questioned the identity of Walz’s dog, Scout, based on a 2022 photo of Walz petting a different dog, while writing in a social media post, “Couldn’t think of a better way to spend a beautiful fall day than at the dog park. I know Scout enjoyed it.”
Any confusion was quickly eliminated, as Walz—on that same October day—posted an Instagram video with the dog in the picture along with Scout and several others.
