Today is the first time I have heard of and seen Gov. Walz. He's refreshing, straight to the point, and very articulate in expressing the Democrats' ideas, which gives people hope and makes them excited to vote for the Democrats.
The He-Man Woman Haters’ Club! Yep, they are weird. They’re also completely incoherent. Private equity and venture capital are not going to help the workers, ever.
If you look at his record as Governor, you'll even be more impressed. He has a one-seat majority and has managed to pass free school lunches and paid sick time. Those are just two of the many accomplishments he has been able to help pass with a one-seat majority.
🤣 I have lived in Minneapolis for two decades. If you could see the decline you would think differently. Go to Minneapolis and take a walk down lake Street or downtown and tell me he's a great Presidential candidate.
He's my top pick. He's saying everything I say when asked. But I'm MN biased I guess too. lol. But having him on the ticket would mean two really educated and well spoken people who want nothing but the best things for the real people of this country. is a good thing.
Kamala is strong with urbanites, women, younger generations & minorities. Tim Walz can speak to rural Americans with earnestness. Currently, Trump has a stranglehold on rural voters. Swaying, even a small percentage of those voters, could have a huge impact on final results.
Agreed, but the people in the middle are in the middle for a reason. They don't like weird. They just want to live their mundane lives and be unaffected. Hopefully this message will convince them that the democrats are not the weird ones in this election.

We love Tim Walz as Governor in MN. But we'll give him up to be VP. Governor Walz is proof that you CAN be a white, middle aged man and not be wrapped up in this weird sense of loss when sharing authority with women and people of other ethnicities. We need him as a strong example of what true confidence in a white male looks like.
What is wrong with America? Why is this even close? I remember being in Europe during Obama's administration and being in Poland and shocked at why countries were sliding into authoritarianism.
