Oh yes, please, older people, maybe I'll have my late great grandma run a campaign for the democrats from her grave.
"Run for president in 2028" XD That ship has sailed. I don't think they will have any more elections.
Finally. Now you idiots can stop astroturfing the place.
Let's hope they won't support genocide this time.
It's cute that they think there's gonna be another election.
How about someone good?
The things Walz has accomplished in his time in Minnesota is actually remarkable, especially given Minnesota's traditionally libertarian/purple local politics.
Literally the only attack Republicans in Minnesota have is his handling of the George Floyd protests and his COVID response, and those are weak and they know it.
Under him we here in Minnesota got dozens of extremely progressive policies put though, our social programs have dramatically expanded and are extremely well funded, corruption has been rooted out, and our economy is booming. The Minnesota DFL under his leadership have gained a ton of ground as well, where nationally the DNC has given up a ton.
No, he isn't a great orator or debater. But as a politician and policy maker he's a rare combination of progressive, well respected, and effective.
Like?
I'm feeling pretty certain the dems will run Buttigieg. Feels like they've been prepping him for a while.
A gay man? No way, they need to run a straight white cis man. It's fucking sad to say it, but for now...it has to be done. Too many racist, sexist and homophobic people out there.
Agreed. Push ahead in the good times. I just hope they run someone who will actually try to make things better and not placate the MAGA crowd and corps.
They'll run Blinken.
Tim Walz unleashed would have won this.
He was hamstrug by Harris. He’s likely the dem’s best choice for 2028.
So of course they’ll run Newsome or Shapiro or Hillary Clinton again because they’re a bunch of idiots.
The Democratic Party is finished, just like the GOP.
