Megyn Kelly seemed to channel her Gretchen Wieners on Wednesday except instead of trying to make fetch happen , she tried to turn Tampon Tim into a trending term.
The appellation for Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) is meant to be an insulting reference to his decision last year to sign a bill requiring schools in the state to provide free menstrual products in all public school bathrooms.
The bill allows for the feminine hygiene products to be placed in boys bathrooms as well as girls something that conservatives are hoping they can weaponize against Walz, whom Vice President Kamala Harris has chosen as her running mate in the 2024 election.
On X, formerly Twitter, Kelly approvingly responded to a post that described Tampon Tim as Kamalas dead weight.
Tampon Tim is the name, Kelly wrote to her 3-million-something followers. Thats it.
The original tweet also declared that Biden was Obamas dead weight and Kamala is Bidens dead weight, referring to Democratic presidential tickets that voters elected to the White House in 2008, 2012 and 2020.

If Kelly expected people to fall in line behind her and promote Tampon Tim as a mocking nickname for Walz, she was sorely mistaken.
Instead, many folks, including Dr. Jennifer Gunter, an OB-GYN in Canada, pointed out that the bill Walz signed is actually, well, good for people .

Imagine being upset that someone didnt want kids leaking menstrual blood onto their clothes, Gunter wrote in response to Kellys tweet. You are pro period poverty, which seems to me to be very anti Christian. Would Jesus have said, Let them leak blood onto their clothes because they deserve it?

Does MAGA not understand #TamponTim isn't an insult? When did a Man making sure young girls aren't bleeding through their clothes at school become a problem? You meanhe doesn't want them embarrassed & able to focus in class?

Ah yes, because wanting to provide school-aged girls with readily accessible menstrual products is so wrong
Remember when you were relevant? No, me either

Aint no way Tampon Tim is an insult, especially from the party who wore Kotex Overnights on their ears two weeks ago!
Providing free and accessible menstrual products should be the law of the land so, if this makes Walz a danger, then its time to get dangerous.
