. The Left views Walz as a Midwestern progressive whose Minnesota-nice persona will help Harris win contested states.
It was an odd choice to visit China in 1989, right as the regime was crushing dissent with tanks in the infamous Tiananmen Square massacre. This did nothing to diminish Walz’s admiration for Beijing. Upon his return from teaching in 1990, he told his, “I was treated exceptionally well. There was no anti-Americanism whatsoever.” He gushed that the police state had “almost no crime.
While Walz’s relationship with the Chinese Communist Party may be nowhere near as dramatic or sinister as that fictional one, we need to ask what’s going on here, particularly in light of Walz’sin 1993 that his leading of student groups to China was funded by the regime. What did China think it was getting in exchange for this investment? What did Walz think Beijing expected in return?
While this doesn’t mean that Walz has a witting relationship with the MSS, what might it know about him after his 30 visits to the country? Three decades ago, a young American with an affection for China, who was also a part-time member of the U.S. military, would have been a tempting recruiting target for Chinese intelligence.
