Hunters and Anglers For Harris-Walz? Don’t Make Me Laugh.
There really is nothing genuine about the Harris/Walz campaign. Not only are the principals – Kamala “Queen of Word Salads” Harris and Tim “Great Walz of China” as inauthentic as a three-dollar bill, but their entire campaign is far too prone to putting out big steaming bushel baskets full of the stuff you normally find under the south end of a northbound horse.

The latest? They’re trying to get the Real Man™ vote back from Donald Trump and JD Vance, by starting up a new “Hunters and Anglers for Harris-Walz” campaign. Yes, really.
With less than a month to go before November’s presidential election, Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris launched “Hunters and Anglers for Harris-Walz,” an apparent last-gasp effort to dent former president Donald Trump’s advantage with male voters.
The coalition was formally launched with a Monday virtual call, organized by the Democratic National Committee, where speakers addressed “protecting our land and water, promoting outdoor recreation, and standing up for common-sense gun laws.” The call came shortly after Harris’s running mate, Minnesota governor Tim Walz, took reporters on a pheasant hunt on which he struggled to load his shotgun and didn’t fire a shot.
I mean, look at Tim Walz on his “pheasant hunting” trip, where he and his supposed companion are all wearing strangely brand-new-looking vests and caps – and where Walz can’t figure out how to load a shotgun he has supposedly owned for some time. It’s about as convincing as Dean Martin advocating for tee-totalling.

This dog just ain’t gonna hunt. Look, I’m one of the people they claim to be trying to appeal to. I’ve hunted and fished all my life, and for one thing, I can tell you that all of my habitual outdoor clothing has a distinctly battered look to it, especially my lucky fishing cap with the “CAT Diesel Power” logo on the front.
That old cap has been used not only to shield my noggin from sun and rain but as a container for gathering berries and nuts, and as an improvised water dipper when I’m thirsty. It has a distinctly flea-bitten appearance these days, but my fishing is always more successful when I’m wearing it. That’s illogical, I know, but there you are. It’s my lucky cap. I’d bet money Tim “I’d rather go hunting with Dick Cheney” Walz doesn’t have a lucky cap. Before last week he probably didn’t have a cap at all that didn’t say “Harris/Walz 2024” on it.
These people just don’t know outdoorsy folks very well, and it shows.
“Joe Biden and his anointed successors of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz have a long history of anti-Second Amendment rhetoric and actions that leave sportsmen and women with concerns that can hardly be patched up by talks of a coalition and sending Tim Walz into a staged pheasant hunt,” Lawrence Keane, the senior vice president of the National Shooting Sports Foundation, told the Free Beacon.

In the spirit of generosity, I’ll concede that Tim Walz may have downed a few upland birds in his day, but I suspect that day is long past. I have no evidence of it but I suspect the shotgun he was fumbling with in that infamous video was borrowed. His vest and cap were pretty obviously brand new.
The guy was about as convincing as Mike Dukakis was while riding in that tank, and it’s going to have about the same effect on the Harris/Walz campaign. Of course, given how clueless this campaign has been so far, it’s possible they may think people are laughing with them and not at them.
They’ll keep flailing. And they’ll keep losing. Hopefully, after November 5th, they’ll go away.
