That’s right…everyone’s new favorite governor is now officially on TikTok, which means we’re going to get some fun videos about lawn maintenance, proper car washing techniques and his favorite fair foods. Scout is totally going to be the star of this account.

Tim Walz or Brad Pitt

The internet, including Emmy winner Sheryl Lee Ralph, is having a lot of fun with the idea that Governor Walz and the movie star are around the same age.

Before we get to the jokes, we do need to see the moment the vice president asked Tim Walz to officially be her running mate.

It’s About to be a Show!

The excitement and hype for the Harris/Walz ticket is already reaching ridiculous levels.

Over the next few months we’re going to get a lot of jokes about JD Vance’s “appreciation” for couches, and honestly, we’re here for all of this smoke.

Dad Jokes

Yes, it’s not technically a meme, but we couldn’t resist this spicy bit of shade.

JD Is Not Ready

Seriously though, JD Vance is definitely not ready to debate Tim Walz. Frankly, he’s probably not ready to debate an elementary school civics class.

He’s a Real Person

We shouldn’t be amazed when politicians act like real people, but since it feels like most of them have forgotten regualar life, these lighthearted moments are delightful.

New ‘Veep’

With Kamala becoming the Democratic Presidential nominee, we knew there would be plenty of “Veep” jokes. Now, it seems like Walz’s entry into the race has just ramped up fans of the HBO comedy even more.

Minnesota Moment

Minnesota is having its moment. And if we’re talking about Minnesota, there’s only one artist we need to talk about.

Hot Dish Party

It’s not just Minnesota that’s celebrating, it’s the entire Midwest. If the Midwest is partying, the only real question is “What kind of hot dish are you bringing?”

Big Midwest Energy

By the time this election cycle is over, Midwesterners are going break out every joke they’ve heard about themselves.

Steve Martin’s New Gig

We already know Maya Rudolph is returning to “SNL” to reprise her role as Kamala Harris, but who will play Walz? Well the internet has already picked comedy legend Steve Martin, and it’s not a bad choice. He’d be hilarious.

Winning in Pennsylvania

Not everyone was happy about Walz getting the nod. Some experts thought she needed someone to help her win in Pennsylvania. Nope, not Gov. Josh Shapiro.

The minute Tim Walz’s name was announced, people were already cueing up Lil Jon yelling, “From the window, to the WALZ!”
