Nice speech compared to talking about sharks, hannibal lector, windmills, racist remarks, and his victimhood

[xavierestrada]

New campaign slogan: mind your own damn business!

[queenpat]

"If he's willing to get off the couch and show up" took me out😂😂😂

[Tymcu]

Excellent jobs Harris and Walz. Thanks Fox9 for posting a great speech.

Finally someone not weird and offering hope and progress. As a European and a Canadian, I feel pain even listening to the sad, angry, hateful, backwards rhetoric from the other side. I thought America at its core was exactly against hateful, narcissistic, self-serving, authoritarian and despotic rulers.

[KenStoneMinistries-ejkx]

Wow. That was a speech of fresh air. Thank You, Mr.Walz. I may actually vote this year, you were convincing, you made me feel like you are sincere and will not play political games, but truly work to help the people.

This was the best speech I've heard in years...I pray that americans do vote to preserve our country...our way of life...not hate..not the 2025 plan...we are a country of all nationalities, all religions, fighting for the rights of equalness, and dignity.

A US Army, a Teacher, a Governor, a campaigner like no other … it is a Joy!! America 🇺🇸 needs such a campaign, specially now!! Finally a teacher and soldier- professions that served the nation is coming to lead it. History on the making!!

[allpointsorganized]

He crushed it! The guy is massively motivating and inspirational! No wonder he won the state championship in 1999! They'll win it all!

[wxzrgjh]

For urban and rural America, no one forgotten!

[colinvannbohemen]

Probably the greatest speech delivered by a running mate I've ever seen.

[baesquer]

Yay what a breath of fresh air !!! So relatable to us ordinary people

[real_lampcap]

An army vet who became a teacher then gets into politics, does so well and become governor, then everyone likes him so much he's running as VP. From a small town and truly knows what being an average American is really like. So relatable! What a great candidate to be running beside Kamala. I will 100% be voting for them come November. Can't wait for their win!

[fabianjulian]

Possibly the greatest Speech…Straight from the heart.. up there I see the future President of the United States.. 👍

[broodybrod]

Good grief! Look how many people are there. And better yet. Both candidates are making COMPLETE SENSE WHEN THEY TALK!

[moonbellebleu]

Finally, a speech uplifting the people instead of bragging about himself!

[captainramom]

What a powerful combination these two are truly going to make America great again when they're elected... 💙💙💙💙

[DJDaddyAbraham]

He made me feel like we all in the locker room, with towels on our shoulders hearing "the speech" before the state championship

Go

COACH Vice-President !!!!

[Kahayuman]

My god! As a non American watching this is a breath of fresh air.

[MrSamy]

A Prosecutor with a Teacher/Veteran/Governor, Let’s go!!! 💙💙
