After Tuesday’s vice presidential debate, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel desperately tried to portray JD Vance as the weird one and Tim Walz as the “normal” one, to the point where he brought back the couch sex jokes and had a skit of Joel Osment as Vance incompetently making his way through a donut shop. However, later in the program, he welcomed Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who used Kimmel’s platform to talk about period empowerment, of all things.
From his military service to Tiananmen Square to his political origin story, Walz may have a history of making things up, but Kimmel declared, “Tim Walz is a very likeable guy, he’s very normal, which is a problem for Fox News, especially because he looks like all of their viewers. He looks like he—so, they are now desperate to exploit any tiny bit of oddness they can conjure up.”
In the clip, Jesse Watters scoffed, “Timmy was at the Michigan-Minnesota game Saturday and hugged the Gopher mascot like it was his husband returning home from war.”
