Dodging town halls screams fear of accountability—Walz is seizing the opportunity brilliantly.

Walz has a chance to stand out from the rank and file Democrats, I hope he capitalizes on it.

[–] Fredselfish 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And Bernie out there now holding these, while Waltz says he may, or he could.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz called the fatal shooting "horrifying news and a terrible loss for the business and health care community" in the state that headquarters the company.

"Minnesota is sending our prayers to Brian's family and the UnitedHealthcare team," Walz added.

thats the part that made people cringe, not even his seperated wife came out to support his passing. shes probably ok she wont have to fight thomspon in court over a messy divorce battle.

Ouch.

We really need to focus on up vs. down, not left vs. right.

I don't disagree but personally, I don't want Walz in a position of leadership of anything besides MN

EDIT: I just want to say that I think the old man is truly naive. No maliciousness

Who would you rather have instead?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Bernie always with a backup of Ocasio-Cortez. I know the weaknesses but the ideas are strong

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's fair.

I wish Bernie could win, but he's really just too old now for the position. It's a shame democrats showed their priorities in their primaries; they'd rather have trump over someone that actually tries to reduce the disparity in wealth.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

yeah, pretty exactly

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 day ago

Never forget what we missed out on.

Bonus in that he has proven to be one that can actually listen to people. Real people, not just the ones that can do something for him.

This is what my parents are doing in their red district in WI. Right now they're organizing to call for the town hall, and then Tom Tiffany presumably chickens out and looks bad. He's a Trumper

Based, I wish my parents are just as good yours
