A U.S. congressman from Minnesota is warning the American people that Democrat vice presidential nominee Tim Walz has been a “complete disaster” for his state.

Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN) said on ABC’s “This Week” on Sunday that Walz, Minnesota’s Democrat governor, has been putting on an act for voters.

Emmer warns that Walz’s folksy persona is just a “character” that he has “played” for “several years.”

“Tim’s been a complete disaster in Minnesota, and what’s happened is he’s so good at being this folksy, nice, kind of down-to-earth guy until people get to know him and his policies,” Emmer said.

“I don’t know if you know this, but his whole congressional district where he played this character for several years of being kind of a folksy, AG-friendly outdoorsman, he lost it in both of his gubernatorial races, and the last one almost by ten points. ...

The congressman praised Vance during the interview.

“I can tell you he’s got the issues on his side,” Emmer said.

“He can talk about the economy that Donald Trump fixed and that Harris and Biden broke.

“He can talk about the border that Trump fixed, and that they broke.
