Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is urging his fellow Democrats to show they will fight for the working class.
In the keynote address on Saturday at the South Carolina Democratic Party's State Convention in Columbia, Walz acknowledged his part in last year's losing ticket.
"We didn't just lose the working class. We lost the working class to a billionaire who gives tax cuts to other billionaires," Walz said.
The governor says his party needs to be meaner.
"I'm getting called out on this because I called Donald Trump a wannabe dictator. It's because he is. It's because he is. 'Oh, the governor's being mean and the governor's speaking out on that.' Maybe it's time for us to be a little meaner. Maybe it's time for us to be a little more fierce," he said.
