Democratic VP nominee Tim Walz’s Monday tour of friendly interviews concluded on Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, where he and host Jon Stewart gathered to plot strategy, gush over Kamala Harris’s vision for the country, assure the far-left that Dick and Liz Cheney won’t actually affect their governing philosophy, and allow one guy in the audience to shout, “We love you, Tim.”

The Daily Show, and Stewart in particular, like to lampoon the media for what they consider to be an obsession with superficial matters like polling analysis or campaign strategies, but that didn’t stop Stewart from asking, “What's been an effective argument that you have felt has pulled people closer to you?”

Walz replied with a story about how, “A Republican introduces me in Omaha, he said, “I can't stand with this guy anymore, that’s not the party of Reagan, this isn’t freedom,” whatever it may be. It’s a lot of those folks that are trying to find permission to get off the MAGA stuff and move over. So, they’re still listening. They're finding a way.”
