Walz is a wonderful leader. He'd be a FABULOUS pick for VP ❤🤍💙

[@jeanjones1846]

Harris and Walz are both Radical Socialist. And they both admit it. The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism, if in fact they knew what socialism was/ is. But, under the name of ‘liberalism,’ they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas

[@alexrodriguez5370]

I was not familiar with Gov. Walz before the Pres. Biden situation. I like his way of communicating processes and ideas. This should not have surprised me. After all, he represents a state that gave us Target, Aveda, Room And Board, and Prince!!!

[@rbnsullivan]

He's my Governor.

This guy was a top NCO in the military he rocks

[@Maddie9185]

I like him but I especially like his the policies that he enacted In Minnesota and that he’s also a great speaker.

[@DSlav2488]

I love walz. He would be an absolute star. I hope kamala picks him. Seriously. Harris-Walz 2024. Lets go

[@georgewashington3555]

He is great i like him also. Walz !

[@jeremyg7218]

we need this guy

[@georgewashington3555]

Tim Walz is great ! Very impressed by him. Great vp.

[@Tom-em4ph]

Tim's the best

[@despicable866]

He be a surprise but brilliant pick for VP imo. He can speak to Trump supporters in a language they'd relate to plus he has a fantastic state record.

[@jwvandegronden]

that is an excellent point. I love Josh Shapiro but I'm European, so different cloth altogether, and the Trumb base has an unhealthy but understandable distrust of intellectuals and Josh will fall under that category I suppose. While this guy absolutely speaks their language. Great point and thanks for pointing it out!!

[@brianmarcum8306]

Thank you Tim Waltz!

[@gretchenvanburen5691]

Walz as an Educator Progressive very comfortable answeing Questions remember He answered Every question hopefully he is the VP pick Grassroots peoples VP pro union He cares good vibes

[@heatherb11]

He seems like a straight shooter. Answers questions clearly without any fluff. Former teacher, football coach and military background. Seems like he'd be great in a debate too. And it looks like he has tremendous respect for the women he works with. He should be the VP pick.

[@louise3088]

He doesn't even understand that boys do not need tampons and that minors getting surgery should have parental permission.He's a socialist.No thanks.

[@kristieshaw4806]

WALZ has taken the lead and there is no other candidate!!! We. Need. This. Voice.

[@jaylacy9912]

I think so too… JD needs to go hide because going up against this guy he is done

[@georgewashington3555]

Love tim walz

[@punky58640]

Articulate, down to earth, no B.S. I think he has a Harry Truman vibe about him.

[@laurirohr5364]

I picked Pete, however Walz is my 2nd pick! He would be a good VP.

[@johnanthony5630]

As one who grew up and spent most of his life in Minnesota, I am pleasantly surprised that "our" current governor, Tim Walz, is the clear, powerful speaker that he is. No other VP candidate is as articulate as he, especially in stating the Democratic agenda. Yes, Minnesota does offer the USA something special, besides great summers and "challenging" winters! :)

[@lynetteprice8519]

Walz Walz, Walz, you're the next Bernie, with your own unique personality, wit and charm. You are hands down the most "likeable" candidate of the vp picks. Walz is absolutely killing it when it comes to messaging. Your stellar record needs to be a blueprint and standard for all blue states. Cheering you on Tim Walz!!! Harris/Walz for the win!!

[@letitiaraebadness7472]

WALZ ... WoW! He's coming across as a strong, opinionated leader with new and fresh ideas to GET OUR COUNTRY BACK from the fear and hatred of the Republican party. GO TIM! He'd be perfect for VP.

[@1805movie]

Please pick him! He talks the talk as well as walks the walk.

[@carolwicker9812]

HARRIS/WALZ 2024!! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🎉🎉

Cometh the hour, cometh the man. I'm certain they will pick a good candidate, not a low altitude flyer.

He just told us Biden was well a couple weeks ago. This guy is like a used car salesman.

[@user-iq42]

People thought he was... How often do you think they met in person? This is why we called on Biden to step down. I think Walz is AWESOME.

[@BENSTACKIN365]

​@@user-iq42You didn't need to meet Biden in person to know he was a dementia patient. The world has known this for 4 years.

[@jjchan3559]

@@user-iq42 You must not have kept up with the news. He and other Democratic governors met with Biden in person after the debate. He then jumped up to the microphone and gaslighted us Biden was fit for office and delivering.

[@918-Verax]

He's doing the Waltz and chasing those little blue balls around. 💙

[@arcstatic8950]

​@@user-iq42 Biden has been mumbling, misspeaking, and reading teleprompters like Ron Burgundy for years. We've known for quite some time, his mind was in steep decline.

[@Ann10999]

💯No to Harris and her VP ,,,,,,,, 💯Yes to Trump in November ❤️🇺🇸

[@Kajpaje]

I can't imagine how you can think Trump made America great. Just can't see it. All I saw was division, lies, and on the world stage, he "was like a 12 year old boy when he met the captain of the football team", when he met Vladimir Putin. He also wrote love letters to chubby Kim 3rd, the North Korean dictator. Please listen to what this guy says.

[@Goldenhour24]

We’re not going to lose our Democracy to a dictator avoiding prison 💯

[@WubbyPunch]

Ann I hope you never get to find out EXACTLY how wrong and brain washed you’ve been. Especially as a woman? The men in your life must be telling how to think if you actually support trump. I feel bad for everyone he’s duped. Which is pretty much anyone not directly benefiting from his selfish manipulation of politics and economy.

[@carolwicker9812]

You're Weird!

Are you a republican? Republicans think having different opinion are grounds for imprisonment.

[@alamorte44]

Why because you don't like him why?

[@briansmith5293]

Walz has total immunity. Trump.and SCOTUS said so. See what I did there. 🤪

[@letitiaraebadness7472]

OH, I get it. He's scared you, that's it. GOP is afraid, shaking in their collective boots. They have no policies, no solid message for all Americans to latch onto. All the GOP has is fear-mongering, hatred, and narrow-mindedness. And the OLDEST candidate in American history. Also one that can't keep his sentances straight... which is a big one for a lot of Americans/ Go BLUE

[@craigshriver4953]

I like Tim as a man and a person, and I have some serious reservations about him attaching himself to the absolute train wreck that this 2024 democrat presidential campaign has become. Tim, I beg you, don't get sucked in.

[@HappyValleyDreamin]

What?? LOL!

[@craigshriver4953]

@@HappyValleyDreamin I said Tim should not get in the race.

[@Atodaso]

@@craigshriver4953 Obviously... you clearly didn't understand the "What??" here. Why don't you try explaining why you feel that way instead of being dense? That is very, very obviously what @HappyValleyDreamin had meant. Also, I am just guessing here... but I doubt that Tim Walz is reading the comment section, so addressing a comment directly to him is kinda odd. Are you hoping that the team over at Fox9 is gonna forward your message to him? _"Tim, I beg you, don't get sucked in."_ It sounds like you don't have a complete understanding of how things work.
