Tim Walz military service
Republicans have recently started tearing down Tim Walz by going after his military record. The charge has been led by Vance, a veteran who served in Iraq, who is criticizing Walz's decision to leave the National Guard to run for public office.
This attack on Walz's military service is seen as an attempt to undermine his credibility and character. However, Walz has defended his decision, stating that he is proud of his service in the National Guard and that he believes in the importance of public service in all forms.
