Wait, did he actually say all that? 😂

For you and anyone else who missed it:

"And I gotta tell ya; I can't wait to debate this guy," Walz continued, before pausing for dramatic effect. "That's if he's willing to get off the couch and show up. "See what I did there?"

The crowd was roaring. I'm not sure if he really paused for dramatic effect. They wouldn't have heard him if he had said it right away. But either way, it was very funny.

It looked to me like he paused for dramatic effect, and then had to keep paused because the crowd took it as a "cheer moment".

Oh good call! I bet you're right!

He made a couch joke. It wasn't explicit, though.
