Gov. Walz started calling Trump, Vance 'weird.' Hear why

"Ooooo, what a monster, kids are eating and having full bellies so they can learn" is such a good answer.

[donnawalker]

I LIKE! him! Articulate, sharp and down to earth. And he knows, what he is talking about, and polite, personable.

[hyperion]

This guy is just awesomely normal. Not a politican nor a weirdo.

[blondelp]

This is the first time I hear Gov. Walz talking. He is really a decent man.

[MISSYGful]

By the way Tapper, he did give you a direct answer "I'm not going to talk about that"

Listening to Walz is refreshing. Direct honesty...it's been a long time since I've heard it. I'm almost teary eyed 🥹

Harris/Walz for the win. He's like Bernie's smiley, clever, witty cousin. He is so engaging and frames the issues so well. He absolutely kills it in terms of messaging.

PLEASE MAKE THIS MAN VP I WILL CRY TEARS OF JOY

Jake acts like anyone actually in the running to be on the ticket with Harris is going to say boo about it. I think Walz handled it graciously.

I love the sincere smile! My kind of people ☺ ☺

The not laughing thing comes from being a narcissistic sociopath.

[righthalfthetime-dont]

Kids are eating and have full bellies so they can go learn, what an awesome statement. This guy is sharp!

[gezak]

This guy on the ticket would make EVERYONE under 40 show up to vote Democrat, just to have someone with Bernie's politics (plus more zest) one heartbeat away from the presidency.

[AutumnSwatches]

This guy is resonating with me more than the others now.

Adore Governor Walz! Would be thrilled if he's the VP pick! 🎉

[sheristewart]

Man, I only just heard of Gov Walz YESTERDAY, and I already love him, so much! There aren't many politicians I've been able to say that about. This guy clearly has a heart of hold, a solid character, he's genuine and salt of the Earth. What more could we ask for in a public servant?

Tim Walz for VP! 💙💙💙

every parent wants their child to grow up well fed and educated! food is a human right!!!!

[im-gipg]

One politician who actually feeds kids at school and isn’t apologetic or horrified at the cost. All I ever hear is excuses from politicians on why we can’t feed school-kids, why we can’t have quality of life and well-being for people in the USA. Now it’s illegal to be homeless!
This guy makes me tear up. I’d consider moving to Minnesota if it wasn’t freezing cold in

6:40 Everything the host rattled off are initiatives the constituents of governor Tim Walz wanted, and he helped them get them. What is wrong with helping people?

I was talking about Trump never laughing with my son over the weekend. It’s not weird that Kamala can laugh; it’s weird that Trump can’t
