A fricking mask hotline?

I think he should make his performance on both those issues a major focus, then. He'll just rake in all the moderates.

Minnesota is ranked as one of the top states for business… easily top10, maybe top 5, depending on the ranking system…

The answer appears to be, “A healthy appetite.”

Dude needs to mix in a salad and some treadmill time.

Who is Tim Walz? Let's take a quick look:

• Fueled BLM Riots in 2020
• Rioters looted and wrecked Minneapolis
• Change MN state flag to resemble Somalia's
• K*lled old people with Cov*d nursing home scandal
• MN a 'gr**mer friendly' LGBTQIA+ "sanctuary" state
• Pushes youth trans surgery, 'hormone therapy' agenda
• Soldiers accused Walz of embellishing and selectively omitting facts about his military career
• Fellow soldiers accused him of "quitting" on them
• Got DUI in 1995 going 96mph in a 55 speed zone
• Praises socialismKamala's "perfect" running mate?

Replying to @kylenabecker and @cyberg007
Minneapolis was once a thriving metropolis. Seriously upscale Dept Stores and glamorous condos. Trump begged Walz for 3 days to let the National Guard come in during the Floyd riots. Coming to a city near you

A whole lotta crazy, according to his own words.

He's clearly one of those "my truth" types- and seems a lot like a self loathing guy who regularly apologizes for being white.

I have read a multitude of news articles on him.

Shapiro is also far and away more loved in his state, which is a must win swing state.

There is a reason Shapiro was universally feared by Republicans as a pick for VP. He has the approval, the statewide support, has had much more exposure, and is widely seen as more moderate.

Walz was seen as 3rd behind Shapiro and Kelly, fourth if you consider Bashear, but I don’t think Bashear was ever a serious candidate.

You were going to believe that whoever Harris picked was the best pick ever, like Jennifer Rubin planned on writing.

He was not the best choice.

That’s when you add in metrics like “cheap labor” and “infrastructure.”

They’re 35th in cost of doing business, 24th in economy, and 28th in business friendliness.

They are 15th in outbound migration in the US.

Mr. Walz’s administration has set a goal for Minnesota to rely on 100 percent renewable electricity by 2040.


So moderate.

free college tuition for low-income students, offering free meals for schoolchildren, and instituting paid medical and family leave.


Much moderate

alongside tax increases on gas and on investment income for wealthy taxpayers.


All in moderation.

It allows her to track to the middle and try and look moderate, while keeping her progressive base happy. But she runs the risk of undecided voters interpreting her VP pick as a validation of her true progressive intent.

I believe you are the one in the bubble.

NO ONE, even on your side except you believes this guy is a moderate.

Hell, I bet the reason she picked him is because he’s not.

If she was able to pull that off successfully, that would be an actual amazing accomplishment. She's a leftwing wacko just like Walz

It’s not that difficult

This pick shows that the D's are worried about the electability of their choices with the many coalitions they need.

It’s easy to see why she picked Walz. The progressive/hamas wing of the party threatened revolt. From the perspective of picking up independents and swing states Shapiro and Kelly would’ve made a lot more sense.

The governor would replace him with another interim dem, but who knows beyond that
