President Donald Trump defended his remarks calling Tim Walz “seriously retarded” on Sunday, insisting there was “something wrong” with the Minnesota governor.

During a Q&A with the president on Air Force One, a reporter asked, “You mentioned Tim Walz and you called him what many Americans do find an offensive word, ‘retarded.’ Do you stand by that claim of calling Tim Walz retarded?”

“Yeah, I think there’s something wrong with him,” Trump responded. “Absolutely. Sure. You have a problem with it? You know what? I think there’s something wrong with him. Anybody that would do what he did, anybody that would allow those people into his state and pay billions of dollars out to Somalia– We give billions of dollars to Somalia. It’s not even a country because it doesn’t function like a country. It’s got a name but it doesn’t function like a country.”

He concluded, “Yeah, there’s something wrong with Walz.” Trump railed against Walz in a Thanksgiving message posted to Truth Social on Thursday, describing the governor as “seriously retarded.”

1. "Yeah, I think there's something wrong with him," Trump responded.

Most of the entire world thinks there is something wrong with Krasnov. And literally NO ONE cares what he thinks* about Tim Walz or anyone else.

2. he's jealous of anyone who is competent, generally upbeat, smart and most of all, has empathy. nt

3. Countless teachers and parents of special needs children must find this extremely offensive.

My apologies.

4. Yeah Donnie-boy ..If Mr Waltz has a problem. I could carry it in a paper bag...

When your problems come to reality, we have to haul them away in a Union-Pacific freight train with 47 cars..

5. I swear, grow up donnie boy. Act your f**king age. You just look pathetic in everyone's eyes otherwise.

6. But there's nothing "wrong" with being obsessed with windmills.

And magnets, and catapults, and toilets. Nothing "wrong" there.

What would trump do without projection? What a loser.

7. Projection and protection . . .

Great post . . . . I would add to the notion of "projection" with "protection." When he "projects", the media and punditry automatically go after the target of his projection instead of questioning the basis for his latest rants. They have been protecting him ever since he started questioning Obama's birth certificate, sane washing him for public consumption.

8. To be fair, windmills cause cancer and no one knows how magnets work

or why they stop functioning when you get them wet, so....

(Yes, I'm kidding.)

9. A Republican Congressman

has said he will vote 'no' on the ID redistricting maps because of the Convicted Felon's insult and use of the word re*****. His daughter has Down's Syndrome, thereby proving that Republicans don't give a damn about anything unless they are hit in the head with a lead pipe. There's something wrong with a person like that. Conservatives are clod hearted bastards and cowards.

12. Walz/MN paid billions to Somalia?

He just gish gallops these responses and no one asks WTF is he talking about?

The US has been trying for decades to prop up what little civil govt remains in Somalia rather than turn the entire place over to Al Shabab. Remember Islamic Terrorism, you fucking dotard?

13. RE: Drumphf: "It's got a name but it doesn't function like a country."....

🤔 Well, considering what you are doing to the USA...

And shame on you for your insults.

14. Trump says things on an hourly basis that would get most employees fired on the spot.
