Former President and Republican 2024 presidential nominee Donald Trump and his campaign have unleashed a new fundraising email in response to 2024 Democratic frontrunner Kamala Harris’ newly announced running mate pick, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, that bears a rather apocalyptic and dystopian undertone as the email foreshadows “Hell on Earth” under a Harriz/Walz ticket.
Philip Bump, with the Washington Post, posted a screenshot of the Trump Campaign fundraising email with a caption reading, “Gee, I wonder if Trump had the same fundraising email ready to go with other names?”
The Trump Campaign email, pumped out to the former president’s supporters and potential donors en masse, claims Walz “WOULD BE THE WORST VP IN HISTORY” before going on to warn that Harris’ running mate choice would “unleash HELL ON EARTH.”
The fundraising email goes on to claim that Walz will “rubber stamp Kamala’s GREEN NEW SCAM and light TRILLIONS of dollars on fire,” should the Democratic team successfully make it into the White House next year.

There has been no indication that Harris or Walz will promote the Green New Deal — a rather controversial 2020 proposal backed by the likes of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) — as the majority of Democrats today have expressed their support for the milder the carbon emissions reduction measures passed in the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act.
The Trump Campaign email goes on to further allege that Walz has “already pulled in MILLIONS in dirty cash to buy the White House!”
This claim appears to have zero basis in fact and it remains unclear as to what, specifically, they even mean when referencing “dirty cash.”
Trump and his team have been known to make other dystopian and apocalyptic-esque threats and warnings, including his recent warning that “World War III” is impending if he does not return to the US presidency.
