Trump says calling Walz after Minnesota shootings would be 'waste of time'President Donald Trump said overnight that calling Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz after a political assassination sent shockwaves through the state would be a "waste of time."
Trump was asked if he'd reach out to Walz, who was the vice presidential running mate for the Democratic Party's 2024 nominee Kamala Harris, as he returned to Washington after leaving the G7 summit early.
"I think the governor of Minnesota is so whacked out. I'm not calling him," Trump said. "Why would I call him? I could call and say, 'Hi, how you doing?' Uh, the guy doesn't have a clue. He's a mess. I could be nice and call, but why waste time?"
Walz’s team responded later Tuesday to Trump’s comments on Air Force One.
“Gov. Walz wishes that President Trump would be a President for all Americans, but this tragedy isn’t about Trump or Walz. It’s about the Hortman family, the Hoffman family, and the State of Minnesota, and the Governor remains focused on helping all three heal,” said Teddy Tschann, a spokesperson for the Governor.

Now it's being reported he's sending armed troops to every city that is run by his opposition.
