Right-wingers are spreading another conspiracy about Minnesota Governor Tim Walz: he’s lying about liking “white guy tacos.”Kamala Harris and her running mate on Thursday posted a promotional video of them discussing food, during which Walz brought up his Midwestern palette. “I have white guy tacos,” said Walz. “What does that mean? Like, mayonnaise and tuna? What are you doing?” Harris responded jokingly. “Pretty much ground beef and cheese,” Walz said. “They said to be careful and let her know this. That black pepper is the top of the spice level in Minnesota.”Listen, I’m just not much of a spice guy. pic.twitter.com/u9yadJBMh2—...
