Sun Sep 15 11:20:09 UTC 2024: ## Minnesota Governor Takes Swipe at Trump, Praises Women, and Mentions Taylor Swift

**Wisconsin, October 28th, 2023** – Minnesota Governor Tim Walz used a campaign rally in Wisconsin to take a jab at former President Donald Trump, referencing Taylor Swift’s song “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived”. “It’s really great to have all of these women help us beat the smallest man in the world, Donald Trump,” said Walz, who is the running mate for Vice President Kamala Harris.

The governor praised the women in his life, including his wife Gwen Walz, three sisters-in-law, Senators Tammy Baldwin and Amy Klobuchar, and former Minnesota Representative Jen Schultz. He then shared a piece of advice for the men in the audience. “Surround yourself with smart women and listen to them and you’ll do just fine,” Walz said. “That includes my fellow cat owner Taylor Swift, too, by the way.”

Walz’s comment comes after Swift publicly endorsed Harris for the presidency. He had previously expressed his gratitude for the pop star’s support on live television. Swift’s endorsement, which encouraged her fans to register to vote, was seen as a major boost to the Harris campaign.

The governor’s rally in Wisconsin, which took place alongside his wife and other female figures, highlighted the significance of women’s voices and support in the upcoming election.
