Perfect choice. Normal ordinary American. Not some nutcase. Thank you Kamala.

America does not need to be filled with angry people led by angry leaders.

[terrencekane]

Trump went out of his mind on Truth Social. That's how we know Tim Walz was a great pic.

[emilypenfield]

I totally agree with Julian. Positive and pro-active... not whiney, angry woman-haters

[PicknGold]

He checks every middle America box.

Grew up on a farm, worked in manufacturing, served in the Army, became a teacher, won a championship as a football coach, loves hunting but supports sensible gun laws, and tells it like it is. Walz is a great addition to the ticket.

It's an appeal to the middle class and older white men. More trustworthy and good speaker. Unions love him, especially the Teacher's Union. Great choice. Harris/Waltz 2024. Thanks.

[JoeMamasBasement]

I love Tim Walz, and I would love to see him as President one day as well.

Tim Walz just has it. Down to earth and straight to the point. Great. In comparison, the Trump-Vance fools seem superficial and pathetic.

[thegrauzer]

Just being a non-creepy, decent human being is the opposite of Vance

[kenster]

He really does come across as wholesome, affable and optimistic! What a contrast to Vance's bitterness, cattiness and overall creepiness

[chribourg]

A dream team!! They will be UNSTOPPABLE

[jerzeedivr]

Tim Walz: The Normal One
JD: The Creepy One

Tim Walz just has it. Down to earth and straight to the point. Great. In comparison, the Trump-Vance fools seem superficial and pathetic..

[aaftlifemuzic]

She made the right choice, he has the most fight and his record speaks for itself

[mrfuzztone]

Great VP pick. This VP pick is going to make a difference.
Will Tim Walz be able to counter crazy Republican attacks? You bet! Josh Shapiro and Mark Kelly are also on the same team. So are Republicans for Kamala.
Kamala Harris for President. The enthusiasm is growing!
