Tim Walz Stomach Pumped with Horse ‘Substance’ Joke Debunked
A recent joke about Tim Walz having his stomach pumped with an animal substance has been thoroughly debunked.
Governor Walz, who has been named by the US Democratic presidential nominee as her running mate, recently made headlines for taking a brutal swipe at his Republican opponent JD Vance. The jab came during a Democratic Party rally in Philadelphia, where Walz appeared alongside Vice President Kamala Harris.
“I can’t wait to debate the guy… that is, if he’s willing to get off the couch and show up,” Walz said, with laughter from the thousands of supporters.
The joke was a sharp reference to a baseless claim that had circulated widely on social media.
The story originated from a post on X (formerly Twitter) by user @rickrudescalves on July 15, which has since been deleted.
The user claimed that JD Vance, in his memoir, admitted to having s3x with a couch.
This story quickly gained traction online, prompting The Associated Press to publish a fact-checking piece titled “No, JD Vance did not engage in inappropriate behavior with a couch.”
Although the AP later retracted the piece, the story had already become a meme on social media.
In conclusion, the claim that Walz’s stomach was pumped with horse fluid is a joke.
