Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz campaigned in Maryvale on Saturday. He held a rally at Trevor Browne High School.
At the rally, the Minnesota governor did not hold back in his negative comments towards former President Donald Trump.
His speech ranged from talking about Trump’s alleged praise of Hitler to Trump’s legacy of nominating three U.S. Supreme Court justices.
Walz also criticized Trump’s comments of late Sen. John McCain.
“Look, he has a long history of crapping on our armed forces. You know that’s what he does. He disgraced the legacy of John McCain, he’ll do anything, and as a 24-year veteran myself and all the veterans in here. That should make you sick," he said.
Walz condemned Republicans who do not oppose Trump.
“There is no courage in the Republican members of the Congress and the Senate to do anything against Donald Trump, not a damn one of them. You know what’s surprising to me is that any of them can stand up without a spine," he said.
Former President Donald Trump also recently made a stop in Arizona. He spoke at Arizona State University on Thursday.
