Internet trolls Tim Walz' after he survives motorcade accident unharmed

Netizens poked fun at the Democratic vice presidential candidate after a crash occurred to his motorcade. Walz, who was free from any injury, later addressed the incident in his speech.

One person shared on X, "I wonder how the press is going to report this incident and how they will blame it on Trump?"

"Most likely they will blame it on Trump and indict him again 😂," another joined in. "Trump would have stopped to check on his crew. Walz left his people behind just like he will leave the American people behind," a third user speculated.

One opined, "Harris & Walz continue to impress absolutely no one." Another trolled referring to Laura Loomer, saying, "Tim Walz's airbag has been deployed more times than him 😂😂."

"Press pool vans that hit each other on the highway? Ohh, an accident!" a user sarcastically said.
