Summary

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, Kamala Harris’ 2024 running mate, has suggested he may run for president in 2028.

Reflecting on the Democrats’ loss to Donald Trump and JD Vance, he admitted: “A large number of people did not believe we were fighting for them in the last election – and that’s the big disconnect.”

Walz said his life experience, rather than ambition, would guide his decision.

Though his VP campaign was marred by gaffes, he remains open to running if he feels prepared.

      Tulsi Gabbard would have won vs Trump in 2024, had the DNC let her run, I guarantee it. Just one example.

        If the Democrats had only chosen to nominate Donald Trump, they would’ve won too.

          This kind of thinking is exactly why you have Trump. You can’t except a moderate, so you get an extremist, sometimes it’s not your extremist.

            Tulsi is complete shit who nobody likes outside of her little fanclub/cult. She would not have won and even if she had she’s barely any better than Trump, and possibly worse. She’s an opportunistic right-wing shill who says whatever’s politically advantageous to advance her own career.

              Your opinions are wrong and I’ll prove it to you: Trump is president.

                Yeah, because the Dems ran a “moderate” like you wanted. You just didn’t get your particular shitty opportunist cult leader.

                Trump being president in no way proves either of the points of

                • Tulsi not being dogshit and just as bad as Trump

                • Tulsi actually being able to win

                Typical Tulcel deflecting all criticism back to “Dems bad” no matter what the criticism is or where it’s coming from.
