If you ask me, I’m upset no one picked up that this consideration was sexist and racist, although it is indeed the best choice for her to win, which reflects how bad US can’t get over race and gender.

      Completely agree. He also just seems like a better candidate vibe wise so far, he’s funny and endearing in a way Kamala is not. Although I do vibe with Kamala’s dorky/weird moments that so many seem to criticize.

      im honestly not sure, with kamala as the previous VP she has a lot more experience than walz, so it provides a much stronger campaign being the “previous VP” walz being VP also gets him a large in to being a presidential candidate later on, assuming people want another 70-80 year old dude running the country.

      8 years of Harris and then 8 years of Walz.

      16 years isn’t much in the grand scheme but maybe in that time The Left can wake up and mobilize and actually make some progress towards election reforms so we can start un-fucking the last 50 years of GOP-Heritage Foundation Trickledown Reaganomics Bullshit that’s destroying the country.
