Tim Walz has received his MAGA nickname: ‘Tampon Tim.’ It comes from a law he signed that ensures students have access to menstrual products, which conservatives find … offensive?
Donald Trump and his supporters have nicknames for every major Democrat. There’s “Sleepy Joe,” “Crazy Nancy Pelosi,” and the former president recently started trying out “Kamabla” for Kamala Harris . Of course,was going to need his own schoolyard taunt. “Tiny Tim”? “Wonky Walz”? No, MAGA conservatives have instead opted for “Tampon Tim.”
The right has seized on that nickname to draw attention to a piece of legislation Walz signed into law as governor of Minnesota. The law, which went into effect at the beginning of this year, requires that students haveat school. Specifically, products like tampons and pads “must be available to all menstruating students in restrooms regularly used by students in grades four to 12 according to a plan developed by the school district.
If you ever got your period in the middle of AP Euro and were caught without a tampon, you know that this would be a lifesaver. However, in the eyes of Team Trump, it makes Walz some kind of sick and twisted monster. “As a woman, I think there is no greater threat to our health than leaders who support gender-transition surgeries for young minors, who support putting tampons in men’s bathrooms in public schools,” said Trump campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt onMAGA Inc., a super-PAC supporting the Trump campaign, quickly put together an attack ad harping on the tampon thing, calling Walz a “weird radical liberal.
