GOV. WALZ IN IOWA: “This an issue of - do you stand with veterans? If you do, you should not have voted YES like your rep did to cut the VA. It’s that simple.”

What I would say to Tim Walz is, why didn't you and Kamala fight back when the election was hacked? Why is Maxine Waters the only one who has stood up and questioned those election results? Even after what he said at the innaugeration?
They won't if they aren't ordered to. An uncontested election doesn't garner recounts. Maybe all of the private citizens out here collecting data could sue for that, but it would probably take a lot of us to even start that process and we are running out of time.
Why are MAGAts acting surprised? The Felon & GOP enablers told them what they would do in office. That's what happens when you listen to Faux News, clergy and uninformed neighbors instead of doing your own research to find out what the facts are before voting..
This country is racist but it’s much more misogynistic. That’s also why HRC lost too. You can have all degrees on earth, but if you are a woman, you’ll be judged by very different rules; if you are “likable”, how you laugh, how expensive your closes are and make you “out of touch”.
People voted for the “black guy”, because they couldn’t stomach a woman prez. Even when she had a better cv. People voted (or stayed home) for a felon, rapist, grifter because they could not bare to vote for a woman that has several degrees and worked as a prosecutor.
Yet another lib propaganda lie. As a veteran I applaud this administration for allowing me to choose my own provider. The VA can not be trusted, as its employees can't be subpoenad for lawsuits, thus doctor patient confidentiality does not exist.
When I hear Walz make a point like that the more I'm sure the DNC silenced him during the campaign after the "Wierd" thing started.
They would rather lose to Republicans than win with progressives.
You’re not gonna find Harris out there. Throw your blessings at Tim for what he’s doing. He’s playing to a tough crowd and succeeding. He’s doing the same outreach to rural America as Pete Buttigieg is doing on Fox News.
We need more people with that kind of energy, courage, and conviction.
It makes my blood boil to think about the opportunities people threw away when trump was put back in the WH. Tim and Kamala would have had our backs. Vets would be honored. We'd still have allies in other countries. Now, we are a threat and hated.
Nice and all, but they really need to lay off the different filming styles. To me, this looks like the answer was filmed later in a studio. Was he actually there? Was this answer live? Might have been, but doesn't look like it, and that hurts the message.
Jeffrey has done no more than the bare minimum. That’s not leading.
Jefferies will sit quietly and passively watching everyone else fight the petty dictator. When we have won Jefferies will stand at the podium and take credit for his “excellent” leadership.
Veterans were warned over and over again...yet they voted 3x for this “4x Liable for Defamation, Civil Fraud, Convicted Felon & Adjudicated Rapist, Donald Trump"! How many more times before they stop with this madness?
Charges of a stolen valor killed his opportunity.
“Carried weapons of war in war.”
“Deployed in support of war in Afghanistan.”
“Was in China during Tiananmen Square protests.”
He made his own muzzle and forced the Harris Campaign to lock it on him.
Walz exaggerated and misspoke and for a Dem, that is death. For Trump, with the help of sanewashing by the MSM, anything can be said. Plus Walz had a terrible debate vs Vance.
Face it: he was a bad pick.
I’m amazed how many people just don’t understand how government works! These presidential races are followed like a sport team. Many voted for the felon because they watched him on a tv show and believed the world hated him because he is “successful”. They don’t make the connection of the multiple
lawsuits and the lack of morals he has. For years, we have heard what a liar he is. How he stiffs workers. How racist he is; yet, they gave him their most important possessions, their trust and their vote. He knew he was going to lose so, he sold twh to all the rich ppl. Did they think that was for
free?! His freedom was on the line! These ppl didn’t even think that if he was honest and “accused wrongfully”, why did he delay the trials?? If you have nothing to hide, why fear the law?!
I wish they (walz, Bernie) would go to other cities in Iowa. They are going to Iowa city, which is a liberal capital of Iowa. We already have those votes. Do a rally in Dubuque or Waterloo. @governorwalz.mn.gov @sanders.senate.gov @aoc.bsky.social
Seems like a good idea. The more they hear from members of the Democratic party that speak to their needs - the more likely they'll be to swing when wee need their support. We need to start from the ground up, and this is how you do it.
Walz and others who tour GOP areas like this will SLAUGHTER GOP by doing this. AND!!!!! They can get people to take to the STREETS by doing this if they are clever enough. Push those buttons and pull those levers.
Listen to not only what he is saying, but the way he speaks. For many in the GOP, the common citizen is beneath them. Gov. Walz has more heart and care than the whole damn lot of them on the other side.
Perhaps this is the spokesperson we need at this time. Impossible to have a revolt without a leader. Need someone to take over the party and get us organized.
Agree with you Gov. Walz. Ppl are tired of the shit show and are more than ready to take a stand. Now, Cheeto wants to sent our troops to Panama⁉️ Troops do not work for him, they work for the constitution and THE PEOPLE‼️ I do not want them invade any other country period‼️
It’s a task to get services with the number of staff they currently have. Imagine how many vets will be affected by these cuts. How many will be able to get services? We know what derogatory remarks he’s made about soldiers & real heroes who’ve sacrificed for our freedom. Trump has betrayed America.
i love tim walz. look..VA doctors and nurses who have not been fired are being told to double the patients they see in a day..so each patient's time with a doctor is cut in half. THIS IS NOT GOOD CARE. TAKE CARE OF OUR VETERANS, ELDERLY, DIASBLED AND CHILDREN. THIS IS AMERICA
This man is an exemplary leader. It was a shame he was tied to the shameful and ineffective Harris campaign. This is the leader that we need but we don't deserve.
Senators, are you aware? A cemetery has removed links to "Notable Graves" of Black, Hispanic, and female veterans, per The Washington Post, as part of a review to align with administration policies.
I'd love to know the make up of the audience R vs D. Will they stay there?
And I'd also love to know their reaction towards Tim Walz.
Hey @governorwalz.mn.gov Are you coming to Las Vegas cuz I'd be the first in line!
Communication at this point is really important because these people are crying out for truth and for someone who will fight for them, not scream lies while they’re running out the door.
It deserves 10 or 15 billion dollars for the next 10 years. There are homeless veterans. VA should rectify that immediately! If I were a congressman that's what I do! And I'd make sure something that money went to licensed medical people up to the challenge.
If only Democrats in Congress had the courage, integrity, and patriotism of Gov. Walz!
@schumer.senate.gov
@hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social @senatedemocrats.bsky.social
God damn America, this is what you rejected!!!! Honesty and care for his fellow Americans.. time to make your stand. Everyone, this is non-partisan it's all AMERICANS fighting for your rights, your lives,literally....
Run with it, Tim…run with it! There is a definite lane here and right now…you’re the only one in it. Hit the accelerator and keep moving forward! This is what is right, just and moral! It’s all you right now! Kamala and Biden have disappeared and most Dems are business as usual.
Not true. Lots of Dem reps are doing this in Republican districts as well as Bernie, who’s been all over. Don’t assume that because you haven’t seen it, it isn’t happening.
I agree, Bernie, AOC and Jasmine Crockett are on it as well. That’s 4 out of 535 (house and senate). Senator Murphy is making noise as well. Now we’re up to 5. They are hero’s.
We were not in trouble like this when gore and Clinton lost. And…Clinton has remained a leader throughout. You are waaay off base on this one. Agree to disagree.
She is the de facto party leader as the last candidate if she chooses this role. Obviously she does not. We are in real trouble here. If she can’t rise to this…what can she rise to? We can agree to disagree, but I will never vote for her again…for any office. I used to work for her and support her.
Looks like Tim is doing that heavy lifting and HE is now the de facto leader of the Democratic Party. If you ask those folks in that room who the leader of the Democrats are, it’s going to be Tim. They, are mostly Republicans. That’s who we need to be reaching. He’s doing that job.
All well and good but democrats are still choosing the flavor of the week as to who’s getting fucked.. You, me, parents, sister, aunt, vets, Jews, gays… all of us.
The cultural left approach is a loser. Start messaging for the entire country because we are all in it. 2024 should have taught you.
At least for Harris and H. Clinton, they are well within their rights to say, “I offered to serve as POTUS, the country said no, and I’m out.” They paid a very heavy personal cost to run for office, and they owe us nothing.
They still need to be talking.... geezus, Bernie and AOC are out there! 💙 And I was never a big Bernie fan, but by golly, I am now. I am absolutely disappointed in the others.
You might want to hear from them, but they are toxic to many in red states. I'm not even convinced Tim Walz is finding any real MAGA supporters. If Obama was there, even the people on the fence might not show up.
🎯 I agree. It's all hands on deck at this point to save Democracy. They probably have shit to hide and don't want the retaliation. Trump is a gangster, a dictator - deranged and we are just starting to realize how bad he'll get with power and support. This needs to be stopped.
Kamala and Doug are at home resting. That 92% tried to tell y'all!🤷🏾♀️ They did their part. Y'all lucky Tim Is Working.

MAGA regret is greatly exaggerated They’ve invested too much to admit loss they’re still justifying their dear leaders actions
Stupidity is not lack of knowledge it is willful ignorance Stupidity is more dangerous than evil
Why? They’re kryptonite-
Read the cult & red states comments in legacy & local media There is still too much toxicity & indifference
Harris et al presence would be too reactionary & the point is to draw out those who didn’t vote or were on the fence along those who are concerned willing to act
Many of those Iowa folks supported Trump because they never thought Trump’s classism would outweigh his racism. They were perfectly on board with the racism. Now they have buyer’s remorse because they see the classism affects them.
This is when the left should step in and radicalize them. Just like Walz is doing here. We can’t write off half the country but we can lead them to a better way. It won’t happen overnight, this country is burning oil as my governor said.
True. MAGA and others living in the same "world", expected Trump to do what he said he would: lower prices for them (not minorities), open up jobs for them (not minorities who have benefitted from DEI), made America great for them (white, working class). Trump lied. His America is for the wealthy.
They have a strange and unreasonable fear of cities, without any concept of what New York and Chicago are like. Its deep ignorance mixed with racism, homophobia and misogyny. They just wanted everything to stay exactly how its always been in their little town. But that’s not what’s happening.
I grew up in a small town in Michigan, and when I tell you the city bias is real, oh boy. The first time I went to Chicago, I was like... 13, maybe? It was for a school trip, and many of my friends didn't get to go because their parents were 100% convinced they would be kidnapped at minimum.
I grew up in the suburbs of NYC, and it was prevalent here too. I was considered a huge weirdo bc I went to the clubs in high school. Except for Prom night, then everyone wanted me to get them on the list at Limelight, lol
Lol same!!! I spent many nights at the Limelight, they missed out. Those neon black lit rooms were formative! The rich white wall street kids and the rural maga have that in common I guess…
Limelight was an amazing club. I duly added anyone who wanted to go's name to the list, but told them they had to change out of their prom clothes, bc there's no way they wouldn't charge a bunch of suburban kids in prom dresses, list or no list. Did any of them listen to me? No.
I’m a white woman with brown eyes and dark hair. I grew up in Norway. I lived in IA for 8 years, and there I was told I cannot possibly be from Norway because I’m ‘not white enough’. Those people had never been to Norway, but would repeatedly claim to know more about it than me.
The racism was real!
This is the way. Send real pols with real morals out into MAGA country. Steal chunks of their bloc. Fucking regular people over as hard as humanly possible is such a massive self-inflicted wound by the Trumpian oligarchy, it should be easy! No one will hate them like the Trump voters they betrayed.
OMG, we need Walz as next President of the U.S. bc he’s willing to answer tough questions.
TBS, I will mourn the should have been Harris Presidency.
Unfortunately too many were not evolved enough to be able to imagine her win.
This though is the next opportunity- America, DON’T Fck this up AGAIN!
Actually, they did say that basically. That all the vets who lost their jobs basically sucked and did not work. Not to their faces of course. Just on Faux News.
I stand with Veterans. They are willing to give their lives to defend our freedoms. We should be willing to provide the care they need when they return home.
They vote against their own interests & are surprised when the eminently foreseeable consequences arrive? What world do they live in to believe such nonsense? Evidently they're in a cult.
Did veterans stand with the elderly? Immigrants? The poor? Any of the other victims of trump and musk? I haven't seen it. All I've seen from vets is concern for themselves, like any other magat. Maybe vets shouldn't have voted 70% maga. There are many more worthy recipients of my empathy than vets.
I have no issue with vets who weren't magats, or even ones who were and saw the light for reasons outside their own self-interest. But being a vet does not entitle you to more concern than a park ranger or public health nurse. That's all I'm saying. Don't expect special treatment cuz you're a vet.
I have as to lose as anyone. But I'm not here whining only about seniors on SS and Medicare. That's the difference between magat and people. Every single vet I hear who has suddenly had an epiphany has had it over his own issues. I know not all of them are maga. But they get no special consideration
My husband is a vet, and he left the Republican Party over Trump’s cruelty and their bootlicking. We should be careful about condemning any group wholesale. That thinking makes us a lot like them.
Not condemning them wholesale. I'm meting out my empathy proportionately and vets get a 30% rating, similar to Venezuelans who I also allocate about a 25% empathy level for when their families get deported.
Vets get no passes for guarding the foreign assets of the 1%. I'll save it for a WWII vet.
Exactly. Did park rangers vote maga? Did VA workers vote maga? Prob not as many as vets. Did NiH scientists or USAID workers vote maga? No.
Out of all the victims of trump and maga, vets are at the bottom of my list of people to give af about, despite their privilege making them feel extra put upon
But we need the Vets to see there is another way. They depend upon the VA and Social Security just like everyone else. They just didn't think they could be taken away. Now they do - and we can win with their support.
You've misconstrued everything I said. If you were never a magat, fine. Great. Thanks for your service. If you were and you had an epiphany unrelated to your own self interest, Ditto. But don't expect special empathy just cuz you're a vet if you just saw the light cuz you or other vets got fired.
Okay Cocaine
From now on we'll all say: vets voted for him, but not Cocaine.
I was a teacher
Do you know how often we hear: Oh, teachers don't teach civics, or history, or art, or reading, or if I were a teacher = I'd do it this way. I'd rap lessons so kids would listen.
Did crabby old white guys stand with the elderly? The poor? Any other victims?
See how that sounds? Super useful, right?
We don't need fucking division. That's what got us here. Stop blaming and start fighting at the ACTUAL enemy. I am so fucking sick of this liberaler-than-thou bullshit.
Not willing to see the trees w/in the forrest ie accountability, has got to be some sort of likely 1st step. There were whole groups of marginalized ppl thrown under the bus first besides crabby white men. Are they only mad it got to them too. You see how that works? it will take admission to guilt
It sounds like you’ve reinforced the original point the poster was trying to make. White guys voting for what they thought was THEIR own best interests. And now that they’re realizing it’s not, do not flip the script and act like it’s “liberal than tho”. It’s the consequence of 70% of actions.
That's backwards. Fascism is a symptom of a lack of empathy. The destination. Empathy can be temporarily gained by the application of misery to those who lack it, commonly seen in "reformed" magats, but its absence indicates an incurable pathology. Fascism is never defeated by empathy of fascists.
That’s not what i meant and I don’t think it’s what i wrote- empathy could drive you to shoot a NAZI combatant in the face. And if so i would certainly want there to be an empathetic response to you so that you could heal from that experience. Bonhoeffer, highly empathetic, plotted to kill Hitler
I love that Democrats are going into these red districts to talk with people. I keep hearing that people in red districts feel that Democrats don’t care about them. We absolutely care! We care about you farmers, veterans, people struggling to pay your bills! We always have.
Going into red districts, having these meetings, is crucial work. Crucial. I don't think it can be overstated how important it is. Especially as Republican reps stop having town meetings.
Since the at least the Clintons, the Dems drifted away from the working class. This is a needed for them too.
Hey DNC…..there is the appearance that the Democrats are running around like chickens with their heads cut off doing absolutely nothing but whining (except a few brave souls). Walz is your man and is leading the pack for 2028. Get your act together my friends.
When you listen to that, it’s like a note in tune. Plain truth. Responsive, real, unafraid. And this is what’s required everyday around the country. Once you experience the power of the truth, there are no losses beyond the transient ones. It just blankets you like the sun on a clear day.
We have to vote for sanity in 2026. We have to stop supporting businesses like Tesla, Amazon as much as possible.
Give money to just support independent media, stop turning on each other in social media spaces, vote for people who support American values. Stay informed. Be decent to one another
Call your senators and representatives weekly at least. Attend a town hall or request on from your representative. Be prepared to vote against your party to help America. Give to food banks if possible, read and support local papers who aren’t blindly supporting this administration’s actions.
I am not able to go out physically and protect, so a big thank you @tmsoc.bsky.social for all the different, feasible, and inclusive ways we can make a difference and fight for our democracy!!
Someone introduce Walz to Chuck Edwards, congressman from North Carolina, who had what Fox News calls a "self described veteran" escorted out of a town hall by the sheriff.
Of course I stand with vets. Vets did what I wouldn’t do, and they should get the best care America can buy, including a guaranteed income for life, because they served their country in a way that put them at risk.
Trump was raised to abhor the military which is why his father got a doctor he knew to falsify the bone spurs claim. When Don Jr. mused about joining the military, Trump told him he would cut him off and disinherit him if he joined up. He has zero respect for the military. ZERO.
Schumer just sacrificed himself b/c he understands that the courts are the only thing slowing down their destruction. Gov shutdown means fed courts shutdown too. There would be no one left to hold them to account!!!
I strongly believe that we the people need to demand a new government be formed from the White House down to Congress and Senate. Right now they are destructive & don’t care about us.
If you took an oath to the constitution and you’re a veteran or not, we need to demand a new government be formed
I thought MAGAs whole thing was wanting federal money to be spent taking care of Americans first? Cutting the VA, or Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security, sure seems to run counter to that belief.
THE AMERIAN PEOPLE GOT FLEECED AGAIN...WHY THE SILENCE ? YOU SHOULD BE LIVID WITH ANGER...BOILING POTS OF TAR...GATHERING FEATHERS AND RAILS...GETTING READY TO RUN THOSE CRIMINAL POLITICIANS OUT OF TOWN AND COUNTRY....WHERE'S THE DEMAND FOR JUSTICE..FUK LAW...THATS THEIR TOOL
TO CONTROL YOU !
Amen. Let them hear what Dem politicians think from the horses' mouths rather than corrupted or turned upside down by the FauxNews filter. This is the way!
There's a whole lot of Republican voters in that crowd. I know.. I grew up there. This is what I've been waiting to see. We'll never change the hard-core maga, but these people are salt of the earth Iowans, who are just beginning to realize the horrible mistake they made.
They've been taught to fear something they don't understand. This is why there's been such a push to get rid of DEI. Keep the people ignorant, isolated, and afraid. It's an age-old propaganda tool that FOX News and right-wing media have been employing for decades. It won't be easily undone.
Just really depressing to behold how many people are so shortsighted & selfish & appear to care about something negative ONLY when it affects them directly.
That's it, & that was by design. Why do you think Trump was always holding rallies in rural, mostly predominant white areas, & courting the evangelicals. Because someone knew that those communites were mostly held together by those churches. And they could stoke that anger at "the other" there.
It’s more than the churches here. It’s everything, from property association meetings to gathering at the local bar.
Support Trump or be shunned.
😔
Veterans are the main group I’m watching. They don’t like Trump messing with their healthcare.
Maybe, but lawsuits will slow that down somewhat. Hopefully, that will give us time to apply more public pressure to the idiotic Republicans who are too scared or ignorant to do what's in the best interests of their constituents. Republicans need to be more scared of them than Trump and Musk.
Believing whatever comes out of the mouth of an opportunistic serial liar is a pretty grievous mistake to make. Let them right their wrong by voting out their current representatives and actively work to undo some damage and prevent even more damage.
I'm not saying that they didn't make a huge fucking mistake. They did. But I don't want them to dig in deeper to the maga world because of tribal loyalties. They've been given a daily dose of propaganda for the last 10 years, and that isn't easily undone. Ask any cult specialist.
If they do dig in, then they will suffer the consequences of that. I don’t buy the cult claim. Cult leaders physically isolate their followers in most cases. GOP voters only tuned in to news and messaging that they wanted to hear. Little effort to get a balanced view. FAFO as they say.
That's a fact, Trrixy. Bernie has figured that out, and now so has Tim Walz. We need those people. This cannot remain a 50-50 issue. It has to become a 90-10 issue. They're the ones who are going to spread it around the rural communities.
The FANTASTIC thing about these town halls with Dems (in red states) with Walz, Bernie, AOC — is that these folks are FINALLY getting out of the right-wing echo chamber and can hear new opinions and ideas. It WILL be different than what they hear on Faux.
#proudblue #demvoice1
I don't think this was the case. I think they had a hard choice to make. They had half the time, a few weeks, to pull together a campaign. They thought the strategy would work. I don't buy this narrative for a second. Logistically, they had a challenging task.
I totally believe it. Maybe not from Kamala, but definitely from her idiot consultants. That was the problem with Kamala; she was too much of a democratic talking point robot, while Tim was personable and real.
My cat and dog should have beaten Trump/ Vance. People voted for horrific inhumane stuff to happen to OTHERS. They reveled in the joyful cruelty of Trump.
They voted for the type of country that put people in backyards and kept them as livestock. Not the country that was trying to overcome it.
Still rather have a technocrat than a barrel full of tyranny-loving, country-disassembling maniacs. Canada will face that choice in a matter of weeks and praying they don't fumble it like Amerika.
The same with people who voted for Trump. Dude gives the strongest grifter used car salesman vibes and people couldn't see through that. It's so strange to me how y'all can't detect when people aren't genuine.
I notice how some of you have the inability to see through fake politicians who are out for their own self-interest. Not saying she wouldn't have improved the country but she serves money before she serves us. Just like any other neoliberal Democrat.
That definitely excludes you lol. Unfortunately the majority of Americans have a very short-sighted black and white view of politics. You have to literally put it in their face in order to make them understand.
Let's see She came out sounding more like a populist the same with Tim waltz and then all of a sudden she decided to run back to the center killing her own momentum and campaigning with Liz Cheney when it was turning off her own voters. She did put a leash on him it's pretty obvious.
Ask your SENATORS AND REPRESENTATIVES (they are ALL GOP) WTF they intend to do? Joni Ernst LIES about the DOGE numbers for finding waste. DEMAND PROOF, DEMAND ANSWERS, DEMAND ACCOUNTABILITY! They work FOR YOU. REMIND THEM EVERY DAMN DAY!
At a time when it’s easy to feel defeated and hopeless, there’s a person like Tim Walz who rolls up his sleeve and gets to work. By doing these townhalls (he didn’t have to do), we can build a bigger and stronger coalition, giving us the chance we need to take back our government and democracy.
Yeah! Especially since the GOP has discouraged its members from holding town halls with their constituents. They don’t want more footage of their fools being attacked and not able to defend GOP policies, positions, votes, etc. More town halls is what we need, not less.
💯 I hope it sends a message to Republican voters that their GOP reps lack the character, courage, and competency to stand in front of them and account for what is happening. I just hope we can get more Democrats filling the void at these townhalls. It’s a huge missed opportunity if we don’t.
From your lips to the ears of every sensible GOP voter and supporter. When more people lose their job, when Social Security, Medicare/Medicade, VA care, etc. get cut maybe people will start listening and thinking about who genuinely deserves their vote
It’s never been about efficiency. It’s tearing down the US strength, security, economy, health and education for the benefit of the tinpot war criminal and allow the uberrich to pick up assets cheap
Hopefully a large part of that audience is motivated to keep pushing their representatives in any way they can. Try every communication method. Physically go to his/her local office. Pressure works but it also takes work. Glad Gov. Walz is doing this!!
Democrats should all over red states holding town halls where Republicans don't dare, to educate the MAGA rubes on how badly they're being screwed and turn them against Trump and his minions so they all go down in flames, either in elections or through violent riots. They bring it on themselves.
We had a chance to have had Walz as our VP with honor and respect for all people! Is our human existence prefect it’s not but even fault human rights, liberty and justice for all Walz believed in! They him part and tRump voters believed all the lies… they still do!
Thank you Governor Walz for giving we the people a chance to engage when our cowardly republican legislators hide their shameful sorry asses from their constituents.
This was always a winning strategy. Democrats just forget to do it in the 3½ years after an election, while Republicans are spreading 🐂💩 & misinformation across the Red States.
Oh, look... kids, the guy who cares, who could've been our VP. Gov Walz is a decent man.Traveling to Iowa to speak w Iowans in red distrct illustrates this.These aren't his constituents.He didn't have to do this. But he did it anyway,bc they are Americans.Walz/Buttigieg on a pres. ticket.
A little late and I am sure many in that audience voted for Trump bc he was going after them not us. Now he is going after us and "How can it be?" Either we have empathy for everyone or no one. We need to make up our minds when we vote.
We need every available Democrat out there talking to citizens and listening. Tell them what you would do differently and how it would benefit them. Make the feel you care because right now many people feel Republicans don't.
Comments
Dear Governor Walz, how I wish you were my Vice President!
Walz is authentic.
She is not.
Not saying Harris is, but there are many other examples.
Just go on tour, promise some random shit, and you will be elected.
You will even be cheered and God Bless Americaned.
They are preparing for something much bigger than 9/11 .
Trump must be physically removed
Keep the pressure on. Do these in ALL red/purple states.
They would rather lose to Republicans than win with progressives.
We need more people with that kind of energy, courage, and conviction.
We could have had this outstanding public servant in the White House right now.
And I will never get over my anger at the people who didn’t vote for him, but chose Vance.
Jefferies will sit quietly and passively watching everyone else fight the petty dictator. When we have won Jefferies will stand at the podium and take credit for his “excellent” leadership.
If everything was normal he would be fine doing his job.
So…Let’s go back to my original statement.
“Someone show this to Jeffries and Schumer as an example of how you lead. Or grow a pair.”
Doing your job is not leading. We need “leaders” not people who “do their job”.
I guarantee it.
“Carried weapons of war in war.”
“Deployed in support of war in Afghanistan.”
“Was in China during Tiananmen Square protests.”
He made his own muzzle and forced the Harris Campaign to lock it on him.
Donald Trump
Face it: he was a bad pick.
Man I wish he had Schumer's job right now.

Gov. Tim Waltz is such an effective communicator. His message is simple, clear, on target.🎯
Our leader @schumer.senate.gov had a chance to show everyday people we cared.
This is what District 1 Florida is dealing with now. Hope your coffee is as good as mine!
And I'd also love to know their reaction towards Tim Walz.
Hey @governorwalz.mn.gov Are you coming to Las Vegas cuz I'd be the first in line!
Fight fight fight 💙 💪

Where's our Beloved Kamala to bring The Team back together?!
It isn't hard to get applause.
Unless you're an asshole.
Tell me again specifically why Kamala Harris should be vocal right now?
Voices like Al Green - who publicly stood up to the President AND drafted articles of impeachment.
AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Sanders, Walz, Pritzker active office holders, who ARE saying what needs to be said
We can do the work make sure they’re heard.
America did not demand that of Al Gore, nor Hillary Clinton.
Harris would put her personal and familial safety at extreme risk
When/IF she decides to run for office again; then and only then - perhaps
This is America’s mess
The people who decided to FAFO need to do the work to clean it up.
The cultural left approach is a loser. Start messaging for the entire country because we are all in it. 2024 should have taught you.
....but like all good revolutions, We the People need the military and police on our side en mass.
Then we march.
Pure fucking gold.
Walz is on a national stump. And yes I know he's in office but not a national office.

Stupidity is not lack of knowledge it is willful ignorance Stupidity is more dangerous than evil

Read the cult & red states comments in legacy & local media There is still too much toxicity & indifference
Harris et al presence would be too reactionary & the point is to draw out those who didn’t vote or were on the fence along those who are concerned willing to act
This is what they voted for.
The racism was real!
TBS, I will mourn the should have been Harris Presidency.
Unfortunately too many were not evolved enough to be able to imagine her win.
This though is the next opportunity- America, DON’T Fck this up AGAIN!
we have some great pickins👍
Vets get no passes for guarding the foreign assets of the 1%. I'll save it for a WWII vet.
But you can't blame people for being bitter.
Dems are always expected to turn the other cheek.
Most Vets voted for 47.
Out of all the victims of trump and maga, vets are at the bottom of my list of people to give af about, despite their privilege making them feel extra put upon
I hope there is a lesson here for them.
🤞
Dude, I was never a Republican, I've never voted for one, and I never fucking will.
But clearly I'm the problem because I'm a vet.
We make up 6% of the population, you asshole. Blame someone else.
From now on we'll all say: vets voted for him, but not Cocaine.
I was a teacher
Do you know how often we hear: Oh, teachers don't teach civics, or history, or art, or reading, or if I were a teacher = I'd do it this way. I'd rap lessons so kids would listen.
See how that sounds? Super useful, right?
We don't need fucking division. That's what got us here. Stop blaming and start fighting at the ACTUAL enemy. I am so fucking sick of this liberaler-than-thou bullshit.
Since the at least the Clintons, the Dems drifted away from the working class. This is a needed for them too.
Give money to just support independent media, stop turning on each other in social media spaces, vote for people who support American values. Stay informed. Be decent to one another
Courts won't shut down during a gov shutdown down? Depends how long the shutdown is.
If you took an oath to the constitution and you’re a veteran or not, we need to demand a new government be formed

Crying about how it wasn't supposed to happen to them.
F*ck off with that. It wasn't supposed to happen to anyone but you idiots voted for it.
Drowning one at a time.
And everyone is just watching .
Doing nothing to help.
Despite being surrounded by life jackets.
I think they won it but not by enough margin to overcome Putin via Trumpelon.
He lays it out so you can understand it and does not sugar coat it
I think he would have made a great Vice President too
But I also think Kamala Harris would have made a great President
TO CONTROL YOU !
The smarter Democrats will do this exact thing
Go to the Republican areas that voted for trump and talk to supporters and find out how they absolutely fucked themselves.
I shared info with them for years, but supporting Trump became the basis of local social structure.
😔
Support Trump or be shunned.
😔
Veterans are the main group I’m watching. They don’t like Trump messing with their healthcare.
That's the only way we're gonna get out of this mess. God bless @governorwalz.mn.gov and @sanders.senate.gov for doing just that.

You?
It's like they have to embezzle everything before the midterms, if they allow us to have midterms
Why risk injury or death in combat for Imperialistic pursuits, leave the service and find the VA has been gutted?
As a former Army NG medic who pulled duty in a VA for Vietnam vets, you will need care.
They voted for the type of country that put people in backyards and kept them as livestock. Not the country that was trying to overcome it.
Or both 🤷🏻♀️
Tariffs are to extort and break alliances
Oh, and fuck Chuck Schumer.
No benefit cuts at all
