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.

    If he was less supportive of Israel and law enforcement I’d be more excited about this.

    Honestly there isn’t anyone left in the party that I’m happy with - even AOC started transitioning into radlib territory.

      His stance on Israel vs Palestine is pretty agreeable. Palestine ≠ Hamas and Israel should be held accountable for the deaths of innocent Palestinians.

          That’s after the DNC pulled the leash on his more progressive stances. He has a very clear, fall in line moment shortly after being picked for VP candidate.
