Cook Out is Gov. Tim Walz's first stop on his first trip to NC. What did he order?

“Cook Out time!” Gov. Roy Cooper exclaimed as he stepped out of a motorcade Thursday afternoon.

He was joined by Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, as the pair of Democrats arrived together at one of the Greensboro-based chain’s Raleigh locations.


Walz is making his first trip to North Carolina since becoming his party’s nominee for vice president. He’s in town for a political event and campaign reception.

Cooper greeted him upon his arrival in Raleigh. And before doing anything else, they drove to the fast food restaurant that boasts 40 flavors of milkshakes.

6. I hope tim is getting a lot of excersize....

All this comfort food could kill a person.

Pork chops on a stick, ice cream, milk shakes, cheese steaks, hot pockets ( ), and a thousand other regional foods that arent healthy.

Seems to me V.P. Harris looking more and more tired/stressed every day. (THEN, next, she'll walk into Gaza, Ukraine, etc etc etc.)
