Kamala Harris picks Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate
cross-posted from: https://midwest.social/post/15388609
Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris has picked Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz to be her running mate, wagering that a former red-district congressman with a progressive streak can help her win over working-class voters in battleground states needed to beat Donald Trump in November.
“The entire country is about to see why their friends from Minnesota can’t stop bragging about Governor Walz,” Minnesota DFL Party Chair Ken Martin said in a statement. “By picking a servant leader born and raised in a small town who has dedicated his career to protecting freedoms and lifting up working families, Vice President Harris has chosen the perfect foil for [Trump running mate] JD Vance and his politics of resentment.”

Copy/paste errors? Few duplications in there. Still a pretty impressive list
Sounds like a big government dream!
He has a very pro-Israel record, but also has weirdly wishy-washy rhetoric about it.
Interesting pick. Maybe uncommitted spooked her?
Is she trying to loose?
Edit: did you mean to say pro-Palestinian? If she was worried about the uncommitted movement that unseated Biden, wouldn't she pick someone pro-Palestine?
He's sympathetic to the anti-genocide protests and very vocal about it. Like I said, wishy washy.
it's another tim kaine moment; someone who has all the right qualities but no celebrity outside his pocket of the country and won't help budge the election needle.
Shapiro would have been a bad and divisive choice. Walsh was the best of the bunch and I'm absolutely stunned that she picked him.
You just described every VP pick ever.
This guy screams I am a white cuck... Do they think this will resonate with white middle aged men?
Don't most of them hate this type guy lol
Edit: Well damn sounds like Minnesota is a liberal paradise under this guy
But can vp affect policy?
Like he stands outside your window and does this?
standing just like he is in that picture!
