Vice President Kamala Harris selected Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate for the 2024 presidential election yesterday. The choice is seen as a strategic move to boost Harris’ connection with rural voters in the Midwest, an important region for the upcoming election.
Walz, 60, a former high school teacher and National Guard veteran, served as a representative for Minnesota from 2007 to 2019 and as the state’s governor since 2019. He is known for policies such as removing abortion restrictions, legalizing recreational marijuana, and providing universal free school meals. Walz has also faced criticism for the state’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic and for the handling of the George Floyd protests in 2020. See an overview here.
For the first time since 2004, both major parties will feature military veterans on the ballot. Walz’s and opponent JD Vance’s service backgrounds could potentially resonate strongly among voters, as a recent study found nearly 90% of US adults express a favorable opinion of veterans.
Why would someone willingly become a socialist? Who wants to have a 70% – 80% tax rate? There are no benefits of being a socialist unless you run for office and plan on oppressing the masses.
Socialism is only embraced by those bad at math, because you rapidly run out of other folks money to spend. Soon afterwards, you become impoverished like Venezuela.
Maybe not “two peas in a pod,” but clearly, “two nuts in a shell.”

Sick, and definitely weird.
