Tim Walz rips 'feeble-minded' Trump during speech as war negotiations fall apart

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, a Democrat, ripped "feeble-minded" President Donald Trump during a speech at the Global Progressive Mobilization conference in Barcelona, Spain, on Saturday.

Walz's comments came at a time when the Trump administration's negotiations to end the war in Iran had fizzled out. Last week, Vice President JD Vance traveled to Pakistan to negotiate an end to the war and reportedly left empty-handed. During a rally in Nevada last Thursday, Trump said he may travel to the country next time to negotiate an end to the war.

“Back in the United States, we’re seeing an alarming consolidation of power,” Walz said, according to a report by The Hill. “A massive paramilitary force terrorizing our communities … a methodical weakening of our free press, of the independent judiciary, of fair elections and all other institutions of accountability."

"We’ve got a feeble-minded, trigger-happy president who plunged us into a war where no threat was present, with no clear objectives and no exit plan,” Walz added, referring to the war in Iran. “We need to call that what it is: that’s fascism. Or at least it’s fascist-curious, as they would be."
