Summary
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Kamala Harris’ 2024 running mate, has suggested he may run for president in 2028.
Reflecting on the Democrats’ loss to Donald Trump and JD Vance, he admitted: “A large number of people did not believe we were fighting for them in the last election – and that’s the big disconnect.”
Walz said his life experience, rather than ambition, would guide his decision.
Though his VP campaign was marred by gaffes, he remains open to running if he feels prepared.
Tim Walz unleashed would have won this.
He was hamstrug by Harris. He’s likely the dem’s best choice for 2028.
So of course they’ll run Newsome or Shapiro or Hillary Clinton again because they’re a bunch of idiots.
And Harris was hamstrung by Biden.
She could have been better.
She is a cop. She dropped out in 15th place in the 2020 primary before she was embarrassed in her home state of California. They should have never ran her and that’s why they didn’t do a primary.
Hey check out this hotshot over here with a long term memory! No, didn’t you hear she ran a perfect campaign they just couldn’t get enough celebrity endorsements…
Some of us have a long enough memory to know that ozma’s whole schtick has been shitting exclusively on Democrats for like the last year. He’s not the guy you should look to for an unbiased opinion.
But they’re right. Harris did drop out of the primaries before they even started and she was unpopular in the polls the entire time.
She would in all likely hood not be on the ticket if it wasn’t for Bidens stubborn pride.
The one who kept warning for months that Biden would drop out, they’d put Harris in, and Trump would win again?
The one who got himself banned for explicitly saying all he wanted to do was post negative articles about Biden at an alarming rate.
Prosecutors are not cops.
I’m curious how you picture a society functioning without prosecutors. Please enlighten me.
Shit like this is why people don’t take the “defund the police” movement seriously.
She literally called herself the “Top Cop” of California… https://www.c-span.org/clip/campaign-2016/user-clip-kamala-top-cop/4813155
“How dare you use her own words and political campaigns against her? That’s Russian propaganda!”
She was the 4th most progressive candidate still in the 2020, solidly mid of the primary field, with some really terrible candidates behind her, and some really good candidates ahead of her.
I think she could have been the best president since Carter, but she certainly didnt run like it.
But again, none of this really matters.

I’m not even sure how to respond to a lie that bold.

Or she could have not played this game, that she willfully engaged in. Harris is the epitome of a career politician that rose through the ranks by doing what the party elites wanted her to do.
Once she was announced candidate, she had all the options to go for her own platform and grow a spine, if she has one. Also that is a quality that is crucial in a president, who wants to lead the supposedly most powerful country on earth.
And this shows, what the DNC wants. They dont want a strong leader. They want a puppet they can control. This is also why they were more than happy to have Biden go for another 4 years, not despite, but because of his declining mental state making him a great puppet.
I half agree. I think the Biden campaign hamstrung her more, than she hamstrung herself, but what do I know, and its all a bit silly. Her campaign is over in any case.
And she chose not to.

Yeah, they would have blamed all the inflation on our first woman president and used it to denounce women for another half a century. If she helped Israel she would have been called out for Genocide just the same. If she didn’t she would have been called weak and emotional, unfit to be president.
Really it was a no win situation for her.
Edit: Fairly sure instead of Genocide Joe they would have called her Obamala Kamala.
I saw a video of him sitting down to have an earnest conversation with hardcore Trump farmers and they left liking him a lot. He’s got that “common sense” Midwestern energy on lock and I can see him gaining a lot of ground with the blue collar and rural folks because of it.
If he has pro-hunting gun views like Bernie, he’ll be an amazing pick.
I think he hunts himself. Didn’t he say that during the campaign with Harris?
The Democratic Party is finished, just like the GOP.
Yep. I remember a time when the Beltway insiders were acting like Amy Klobuchar was a rising star or some such, LOL.
Ah, Klobuchar. She is the prize senator from the DFL-- their only Sr Senator. She more or less runs it. The same Klobachar who threw out every single police misconduct case given to her when she was a county prosecutor, including the murder of George Floyd by officer Derek Chauvin. She just let him walk because he was a cop.
Honestly, I just can’t hear another fucking anecdote about her Grandfather. That was her sole pivot.
The fact that this is somewhat believable is so stupid
Pretty much any reasonable person unleashed by the Democratic party would have won.
