Why do Trump supporters call Walz 'Tampon Tim'?
With Minnesota Governor Tim Walz recently being chosen as Kamala Harris’ running mate for the 2024 presidential election, his past legislative actions, including the Tampon Bill he signed as governor, have come under scrutiny. This has led to widespread curiosity about what the Tampon Bill is and the reasons behind the controversy.
