(Updated) Weird Choice...

Protest against Minn (D) Gov Tim Walz during the 2020 Minneapolis riots.

...but the only choice.

Where do I start with this? Well, first, I'm pumped that the Dems picked a card-carrying commie and political hack to run with their other card-carrying commie and political hack. Dems got to this hard left, screw the working-class, and the centrists' Harris Walz teaming through the process of elimination. Simple. Dems had some pretty heavy hitting Governors and Senators lined up for consideration, but half said no because they have 2028 aspirations and didn't want to suffer the Tim Kane effect, Hillary's Veep who fell headlong into political nothingness after the 2016 election, the other half (like Kelly of Arizona) were dropped because Trump campaign candidate research found that they had too heavy China ties to be selected. That left Shapiro of Pennsylvania, and Walz. But Shapiro is a Jew, and we all know Democrats are mostly antisemites, that left Walz as their go to commie. Lastly, Dems (coup leader Obama that is) had to pick someone that would not outshine Kamala and believe me with Walz there is no danger of that. In a recent NPR poll only 17% of voters had a positive view of Walz. So, I'm pumped and relieved, Witmer and Shapiro scared me a bit, I thought they had the best chance of carrying their home states. And what an incredible contrast, young, populist, dynamic, popular JD Vance, against a weird old putz that got arrested for drunk driving, put tampons in boys' bathrooms and lied about his military service. Yeah baby. PG 4 CGR

Townhall, Aug 6, 2024. No Jews Allowed In The Democrat Party. Pennsylvania Gov Josh Shapiro was supposed to be Kamala Harris’ running mate. He was considered a mortal lock, one that made Republican strategists nervous. Shapiro has sizable Republican support in Pennsylvania. He’s incredibly popular, where one-third of self-identified Trump supporters in the Keystone State approve of his job performance. That hype video leaked from Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker that all but suggested that Shapiro was the guy. 

Then, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz came out of nowhere, being tapped to be Harris’ running mate. Supposedly, his stock rose last March when the vice president visited the state, and the two hit it off during a visit to a Planned Parenthood center. We’re blessed that Harris is a political idiot. Yet, the real reason Shapiro was passed over was simple: he’s Jewish. We all know this is the case since he was the best candidate in the VP crop to be considered. 

AOC and the Squad love Walz. Need I say more.

RedState, August 6, 2024. The MSM Rushes To Put Lipstick On A Pig. Politically speaking, I've never been more happy to be wrong. For the better part of a week, all signs pointed to Josh Shapiro being the vice presidential choice for Kamala Harris. Never mind that he, by far, made the most electoral sense. 

Shapiro is a popular governor in the must-win state of Pennsylvania. Had he been on the ticket, it would have been an exceptionally difficult obstacle for Donald Trump to overcome. Yet, in a surprise move, Harris chose Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, almost certainly because Shapiro is Jewish and the far-left antisemites in the Democratic Party have been in the middle of throwing a fit over his possible selection.

Who is Walz? He's a commie Bernie Sanders clone whose record is so left-wing that Trump could run a new ad every single day from now until the election. That didn't stop the press from quickly trying to put lipstick on the pig, though. In the aftermath of the news, CBS News described him as a "centrist" who likes to cook casseroles.

Axios also brought out the clean-up crew, doing its best to soften the connection between Walz and the radical left. Instead of just admitting he's a socialist, they described his policy positions as "leaning into disagreements." 

Minnesota progressives didn't always love Tim Walz.But over the years, Walz has moved left from some of his more moderate stances — and also impressed them with willingness to "lean into disagreements."Why they pitched him as @KamalaHarris' VP pick ⤵️ https://t.co/L8Jvb4s63l— Kyle Stokes (@kystokes) August 6, 2024

That above framing is insane and objectively false. Walz is as far-left as you can get, to the point where he competes with Gavin Newsom as the most radical governor in the country. He let his state burn during the 2020 Black Lives Matter riots, choosing to coddle criminals instead of taking action. He signed a bill putting tampons into boys' bathrooms. He believes biological males should compete against females in sports. He took the side of teachers' unions over students during COVID. He has praised socialism as just being "neighborly." He has defended sanctuary cities. He even changed Minnesota's flag to look like the Somali flag to appease the Islamists in his state.

I could keep going, but if you want absolute proof of how insanely far-left Walz is, just look at who is celebrating his selection.

Congratulations to our next Vice President @Tim_Walz 🥳Our North Star state Governor has signed universal school meals, paid family and sick leave, marijuana legalization, and protections for reproductive rights into law.Bringing Minnesota nice to the ticket 💪🏽 pic.twitter.com/8fNZS1jsyG— Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) August 6, 2024

The worst Democrats you know aren't overjoyed at Walz being picked because he's a "centrist" who likes cooking. They see him not just as an ally, but as one of them. That's because he is. There is no sugarcoating his record. Walz is insanely liberal, and the Trump campaign now has a chance to reset the race. 

With all that said, I think this is a disaster for Democrats. It's not decisive because I'm not convinced anything can be decisive three months out from election day, but a disaster nonetheless. Shapiro was obviously passed over because he's Jewish. Democrats are so scared of their own base that they gave away a golden opportunity to lock up a must-win state. 

That's left the most left-wing ticket in presidential history on the ballot. Minnesota is not a swing state, and if Republicans take advantage, they can regain the momentum in the battleground states. No amount of press gaslighting will change who Walz is, and it's time to let everyone know.

This is a must watch, very quick recap of Tim Waltz. Enjoy.
