I don't know how anyone with a functioning frontal lobe can honestly believe Walz was anywhere near the top of the list of VP choices... or that they literally chose him over Shapiro.

The ticket is probably “Putin Approved!”

If you haven’t seen the vid of his wife speaking at a rally from behind a podium, you should see it. The woman is scary. Bat guano crazy.

To placate Bernie Sanders and not lose the Muslim vote?

Let’s just get this out on the table. Kamala didn’t choose Walz. Her handlers did.

CCP required that Walz be the choice. CCP owns Biden. Biden told Harris, “I will drop out and endorse you, but Walz has to be your VP choice.”

I heard that most didn’t want to be on the ticket as second place with this mental midget Kamala.

And his daughter is even worse...she could have faced indictment by urging the Floyd mobs to riot in 2020 by tweeting that her father would not be sending out the national guard (before he actually announced that decision).

Actually, its a logical for her. Waltz is just as much of a Leftist as she is. He also complements her. He is White, “folksy”, and has some military service; these are all characteristics that will therefore sway weak-minded indepedents. Lastly, unlike Josh Shapiro, he is not Jewish and won’t alienate the Hamas-wing of the Democratic party.

The only thing Waltz doesn’t have going for him is that he does not govern a must-win swing state (as Shapiro does). However, he is a Midwesterner, which might help in Wisconsin and Michigan.

He was the only one stupid enough to accept the offer? They are each an individual disaster, and even more so when teamed up! Ugh!

Socialist Democrats I know in Real Life are really, REALLY crabby these days - which bodes well for our side. They’re not happy with these two being foist upon them.

But, you know, ‘DEMOCRACY’ or something... *SNORT*

Two possibilities:
1. The communists tend to think long term when it comes to their evil agenda of destroying America. They know they’re gonna lose to Trump after their disastrous Biden “installment” regardless of who they run. So they run their worst of the worst knowing they’re gonna lose but keep the black ghettopotus vote happy, their muslim vote happy, etc., and save their potentially “better” candidates to run under more favorable conditions of a win rather than lose them this time around to a guaranteed Trump win.

2. Or, they just went down the line of candidates for a VP. Everyone refused it because “heels-up knees-wide” is so unlikeable, that is, until they got to this insane lying jackass clown.

I have heard from my DC insider friends that more than one person declined the offer due to her well-known shortcomings as a boss and belief that she couldn’t win.

They, and he, keep playing up the “coach” meme but he hasn’t been a coach (and only an assistant high school coach) in 25 years! They never make reference to him being a governor! Why? Because his record as a governor is pure Marxist.

He was chosen as an image...sweet old man who was a coach. Except...anything but a sweet old man.

I see all the signs at his rallies...Coach...Coach...Coach...like that's a qualification for VP...and he owns a gun!!

If Trump wins, Shapiro will be a tough nut to crack in 2028 for both parties provided he doesn’t self-destruct. And if Shapiro were to win in 2028, the Obamas will lose their grip on the White House and leave their DC lair.

This was a situation where good, qualified politicians wanted to stay as far away from the fallout from the Harris campaign as they could. Being a VP candidate under Harris would be like Albert Einstein being the janitor for a high school math teacher. Not a career building experience.

Because Democrats suckered Kamal-toe into selecting a loser, so that she would lose.

The majority of Democrats dislike and maybe even hate Kamala... They were calling for a replacement for her 6 months ago... And there are lots of Democrat Presidential hopefuls looking forward to 2028... They don’t want her to win... They want her to lose and Walz and his lack of appeal will be useful to that end.

I strongly suspect the first choice was Josh Shapiro out of Pennsylvania to help shore up that state - but his support of Israel may have changed the Harris camp’s mind - I suspect he was offered Secretary of State or Chief of Staff if Harris is elected - meanwhile, to keep his mouth shut about Israel and Hamas.

Yeah, sort of like Harris wasn’t the first, second or third choice for Biden - but he promised Clyburn that he’d pick a black woman for the VP spot.
