(DailyAnswer.org) – Actor James Woods recently called Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, the running mate for Vice President Kamala Harris, a “dangerous monster.” Woods made the comment after Walz posted a message on social media aimed at male voters, stating, “I want to talk to all the guys for a second. Think about all the women in your life that you love—daughters, wives, moms, cousins, neighbors. This election is about their lives and protecting their freedoms.”
Woods was quick to criticize Walz’s message. He replied, “That’s why we are protecting them from you, and your promotion of mentally ill men in their bathrooms.” He went further, accusing Walz of supporting policies that he claims harm women and girls. “You, the destroyer of their bodies, their dreams, and their futures with mutilation masquerading as ‘gender-affirming care,’” Woods continued. “You’re a monster, and a dangerous one at that.”
Woods’ comments refer to a recent Minnesota law that Walz signed, which requires schools to make menstrual products available in boys’ restrooms. Supporters argue that this measure provides needed resources to students. Critics, however, see it as part of a troubling trend, deepening what they call “gender confusion” in schools. Some Republicans have mocked Walz for this law, giving him the nickname “Tampon Tim.” Instead of shying away, some Democrats, like Rep. Sandra Feist from Minnesota, have embraced it, using the hashtag #TamponTim and saying the law is about meeting students’ needs.
Former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton even chimed in, oddly suggesting that more states should follow Walz’s lead, praising what she called his “common-sense policy.”
A recent poll by Fairleigh Dickinson University suggests that Walz’s appeal among men may be lacking. According to the poll, male voters tend to view the Harris-Walz ticket as less “masculine” than the Trump-Vance ticket, which may hurt the Democrats’ chances in traditionally male-leaning demographics. A separate survey by the Minnesota Star Tribune shows male voters in Walz’s home state prefer Trump-Vance by a wide margin, 53 percent to 37 percent.
In response, Walz has tried to appeal to gun-rights supporters, recently emphasizing his support for the Second Amendment. However, this message seems conflicted, as he and Harris have also voiced support for banning certain types of firearms, including AR-15s, during campaign stops.
