According to a Politico report, Kamala Harris’ inner circle was caught off guard by Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s history of misrepresentations and all-out lies. Many Harris aides found out when the public did.

The details were revealed in the Politico article Walz says he ‘speaks like everybody else.’ And it’s not working for the campaign.

From Politico:

Since being tapped as Kamala Harris’ running mate, the folksy, plain-speaking Minnesota governor has had to explain a growing number of inaccurate statements — and at times embellishments — about his past. They range from comments about his military service to his visit to Hong Kong more than three decades ago to clarifying that his family didn’t specifically use in vitro fertilization.

…

It’s unclear whether Walz’s verbal errors will undercut his credibility with voters. But the need to continually clean up those claims could politically hurt Walz and Harris, who are locked in a tight race with Donald Trump and JD Vance. And in some cases, key members of Harris’ circle weren’t aware of some of the inaccurate statements until they became public despite the vetting process, according to four people familiar with the conversations who were granted anonymity to discuss the matter.

“Any time you are forced to go off message is never welcome,” said Mike Mikus, a Democratic strategist in Pennsylvania. “But in the end, voters are looking for somebody who is more concerned about what these candidates are going to do to improve their lives than, ‘Did he get every single fact correct?’”

Walz has twice had to clean up past remarks on China and his military service.

During a recent interview, Kamala Harris said she “went with her gut” when she picked Tim Walz.

Kamala also admitted she was sleep-deprived when she selected Walz as her running mate.
