If college football fans are any indication of the way the country leans then Kamala Harris and the Democrats are in for a rough election.
This past weekend both Donald Trump and Vice Presidential candidate Tim Walz attended college football games and there was a stark contrast in the reception for each man.
Donald Trump attended the Alabama vs. Georgia game. Trump entered like a hero to crowds outside the building cheering and wearing prop Trump gear. He walked in with celebrities like Kid Rock and John Daly and sat in a luxury suite with former Georgia great Herschel Walker and Alabama boosters among others.
After two assassination attempts on his life in the past three months Trump walked into an open air stadium of close to 100,000 people who loudly cheered for him. When they showed him on the jumbotron the players even took a pause because the ovation was so loud and it looked as though not one person was not on their feet for the former and hopeful next president.
This was a stark contrast to Tim Walz who attended the Minnesota vs. Michigan game. Walz was met outside the stadium with hostile fans who rained boo's upon him as if he were for the other team. That could make sense since he is the Governor of Minnesota, except when he was on the field he was heard saying "Go Blue", rooting on the Michigan Wolverines. Walz made it a point to "not choose sides" but when he was recognized inside the stadium there was barely a reaction and you could hear just a splattering on boos among the crowd.
Being on a college campus in a purple state and being boo'd is not a good sign for Walz and the Harris ticket. Trump narrowly won Michigan in 2016 and then barely lost it in 2020.
