Even left-leaning sources were roasting Walz for that one. It was enough that the campaign released a statement.
"The anguish of losing a child is something no family should have to endure. Gwen and I send our deepest condolences to the Goldberg-Polin family, after Hamas’ murder of their son Hersh," reads a post on Walz’s X account. "Hamas is a brutal terrorist organization – and we condemn their continued atrocities against both Americans and Israelis in the strongest possible terms."
It is a good statement, but it should have been said at the fair in Minnesota in direct response to the question. I don't blame Walz for that. I'm sure he's been given direct instruction to not handle any even remotely contentious issue in a way that outshines the top of the ticket.
