Tim Walz addresses 2024 election loss, discusses path forward

Former Democratic vice presidential nominee and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz spoke Friday for the first time since Donald Trump won a second non-consecutive term in the White House. The governor urged those discouraged by the election results to care for themselves, their loved ones and their communities. He went on to say that even in the face of loss, he has never felt more motivated and inspired.

After he ruined his state, I'm thankful he's not one heartbeat away from presidency! So long Timpex!

"We won't demonize people who disagree with us?" Hmmmm.

[jamesgibson]

You are a disgrace to us actual combat vets. Even people from you unit called you a coward. How do you sleep at night knowing your battle buddies have called you out.

[kekkic]

Be grateful that Harris and Walz didn't win. They would have been terrible for the US

[davidpar]

You don’t have a path forward. You have a one-way ticket home.

[rodyoutsey]

He couldn't even beat Trump in his home county! Knuckle Head!

[chrisjones]

There's a certain irony hearing the losing ticket tell nation what people want. No, the nation declared what they want - and it wasn't what you're offering.

[ernie]

Why does he keep talking about a political future? I thought there weren't going to be any more elections?

[jeanjones]

You can have Walz back, Minnesota! Please keep him there.

It makes me sick when he claims that he is a hero veteran, MY BROTHER DIED AT WAR AND TIM HAS THE AUDACITY TO CALL HIMSELF A HERO AND A VETERAN?! What a lowlife idiot.

Tim waltz is the creepiest person I have ever heard speak. And the stay out of my business B.S. is disgusting

[timphil]

I just heard 18 minutes of “Let’s give endless handouts to the poor.”

[ProMachus]

I hope to God he loses in the most humiliating way if he decides to run for reelection Nov of 2026 in MN.
I feel so bad for the Minnesotans that they are STUCK with Timmy Twinkletoes, the ultimate pathological liar
He disgusts me

[Ndrangheta.M]

I can't wait for him to see all the damages he's done over the last 4 years. He will lose Minnesota so bad. He will never want to reside there again. He will be humiliated.
