Vice presidential candidate Tim Walz was the featured guest on ABC’s “The View” on Monday and it didn’t take long for things to get weird.

Things took a turn immediately when Walz tried to blame former President Donald Trump for the economy, which has been in a downward spiral for three and a half years.

“It’s very clear that, as you said, Donald Trump is spiraling down, unhinged,” Walz said. “What worries me about these comments, some of these are just so strange that they’re hard to imagine, are the dangerous ones in the middle of that — the ‘enemy from within’ and some of that.”

“But on the flip side of that is the message that’s starting to break through is this opportunity economy, a new way forward,” Walz said.

Walz also struggled tremendously when asked about his numerous “misstatements” and falsehoods that he has told over the years, including on the campaign trail.

WATCH:

Democrat vice presidential nominee and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has made a habit of misrepresenting stories from his own life that some have described as lying and apparently Democrat presidential nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris, is not a fan.

The Minnesota governor sat for an interview with “Good Morning America” host and NFL Hall of Famer Michael Strahan and was grilled about his previous lies and how the vice president responded.

“You call yourself a knucklehead. You call yourself a knucklehead because you’ve made some statements that just aren’t true. In a comment about ‘weapons of war that I carried in war,’ which you didn’t. You said you were in Hong Kong during the Tiananmen Square massacre when you weren’t. You kind of chalked it up to bad grammar or getting the dates wrong. But your opponents say you lied to make yourself look better. Do they have a point?” the host said.

“Well, look, 35 years ago got the opportunity to be in Hong Kong, be in China, learned a lot about it. Served 24 years in the National Guard. Passionately, in an instance, talking about gun violence in schools on an instance there. Proud of the service that I have done. Proud to be a teacher in that classroom. Proud to have been very public all these years and owning it when I said, look, I was there in August of ’89,” Walz rambled.

“And I think what you see here, you saw it in Minnesota, I have been elected eight times here, these things have been very public for folks here. We see the results of the things that we passed. We see a state that’s top five state for business. We see third-best state, top three states for raising a child. We’ve got the best health care. I think the policies, whether it be dealing with China and understanding China’s human rights record, what you can be certain there is that Kamala Harris and I aren’t gonna put dictators on speed dial, say Xi Jinping is doing a good job during Covid, as Donald Trump said. And I think the lessons learned over a lifetime, being very public, whether it’s in the classroom or being elected,” he said as he danced around the question.

When asked about it on GMA, he admitted that the vice president had scolded him.

“And Vice President Harris, said she told you to be a little bit more careful on how you say things?” the host said.
