"He can talk a dog off a meat truck."

Walz hasn't changed his name 3 times and doesn't wear eyeliner.
Walz is a real man who brings experience wisdom and leadership to be an excellent VP for Kamala and America.
VOTE BLUE

He’s wonderful! A hero with heart humility and great skill

I think Gen Z will love him.
He is a grandpa, teacher, protector of their rights. They want real, not lies. They want substance and what we are going to do for your generation guy.
Not the bullying and cruelity, lying every speech do nothing for our generation, take away our rights guy

Vance is currently scrambling to find a hardware store and is expected to find one during the weekend. Expect his photos in in front of the store to come out on Monday.

Here we go the mainstream media is already labelling Tim Walz as a ‘do no harm’ pick. So annoying!!!!

[alatimerknight]

When "safe pick" is a cute insult. Walz is a STRONG candidate 💪🏾

[BrutishYetDelightful]

I bet Vance can find a furniture store.😍🛋

[arieloliva]

Great Pick Tim is a True Real Honest American

[twirlingswirlinggirl]

[wzhdylb]

[ljacobs]

Quit calling him a do no wrong choicr. He is qualified, can relate to rural Americns, and is a reasonable and easy to relate to candidate.

[PeterBlumenstein-ptcq]

Dana stop with the do no harm taking points time for a new career let someone else who can talk do no harm

[jjradV]

"Grey hair, white hair" "safe do no harm pick" you are referring to a highly effective, highly qualified candidate !

[josephambrosio]

What's going on with Andrea? Time to go home and write a book.

[hejimony]

Do no harm guy is the stupidest summary ever of Walz' qualities and Harris' decision making process

[billhicks]

They're banning books in their schools, up here in Minnesota we're banning hunger in ours.

Tim Walz

[tequilamockingbird]

He's gone by Tim Walz his entire life. JD Vance is on his 3rd name.

[lisamcbarron]

Andrea Mitchell needs to go into retirement. She's just painful to watch.

[Nephalem]

Tim Walz is probably the most likeable of the choices Kamala had.
