Meh…
They’re trying to be even-handed, but silly insults don’t really work on Walz. He’s just too… wholesome and folksy. I’m sure there are ways to poke fun at him, but not the edgy “Onion” way, which is usually sharp satire. It’s hard to effectively satirize a person who is kinda of an unexpectedly lovable teddy bear that also happens to know how to effectively govern.
