Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz held a rally in Green Bay, Wisconsin, on Monday to drum up support just three weeks before the presidential election.
While warning the crowd about what he said was at stake if former President Trump took back the White House, the vice presidential candidate boasted about the unorthodox trio of supporters backing the Harris-Walz ticket.
“The path to the Super Bowl, the path to control of the Senate and the path to the White House goes directly through the NFC North, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota. Look, you had a Lions fan, a Packers fan and “The Vikings are fanning out here,” Walz said, referring to Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, Wisconsin Gov. Tony Ivers and himself. “The only thing more surprising is that we have Bernie Sanders, Dick Cheney and Taylor Swift on the same bill.”
Cheney, who served as vice president to former President George W. Bush, was vilified by Democrats for his tough defense of the Iraq War. But last month, Cheney made the surprising announcement that she planned to vote for Kamala Harris for president.

Taylor Swift also announced her endorsement of Harris last month, just minutes after the presidential debate between the two candidates.
Walz used his speech in Green Bay on Monday to debate a list of grievances against Trump and his running mate JD Vance, whom he debated earlier this month.

Walz attacked Trump’s mental acuity and age, claiming the former commander in chief has “been forgetting things.”
“He’s confused. He’s an almost 80-year-old man. He’s ranting and rambling until people get bored and leave his rallies,” Walz said.

Walz appealed to men who weren’t sure who they planned to vote for.
“I’m going to send a message to the guys here. Do you have any women you love in your life? Your wives, your daughters, your mothers and your friends? Let’s not forget that your lives are literally at stake in this election.” Walz said, invoking Trump’s appointment of three Supreme Court justices who were instrumental in overturning Roe v. Wade.
“He brags about it. He’s happy that my daughter Hope now has fewer rights than her mother had,” Walz said. “That’s what he brags about.”

Walz ended his speech by imploring the crowd to vote for Harris, comparing them to the “underdogs.”
“For God’s sake, I’m a Vikings fan,” Walz joked. “We are always the underdogs.”
