I'm in the Netherlands this week to foster business ties with companies looking to expand in Minnesota.
I've made similar trips as Governor, representing Minnesota around the world, but this time is different.

It's clear that President Trump is doing irreparable harm to our economic future.
Not all of us did.
We deserve it?
We need an opposition leader.
I’m saying that they need to grab attention by showing more outrage. Republicans would be screaming in front of microphones every day.
We’ve learned it’s about controlling the story.
Resist and not just for "business, business, business".
1 month and you are (already) sold to the russians (never again a capital letter).
Resist!

GOP DOESN’T GIVE A SHIT
Not just about people, the Constitution, laws, anything!
The damage is being done!

Wishing you would have been the VP, governor.
Try horrified
Germans once said: wir haben es nicht gewußt.
Future generations of Americans will be the post-war Germans. Living with shame over what happened and what their (grand)parents allowed to happen. They can still stop it. Everyone can know what Trump is doing. No 'we didn't know'."
I'm making the case that Minnesota will remain open for business, and we'll continue to enjoy well established ties to our European allies long after Trump is gone.
But let's also note Europe & Scandinavia are ELECTING RIGHT-WING PEOPLE TOO!!!!! Beware!!
When Harper was elected, friends in Europe kept asking if Canadians had collectively fallen on their head. Saying that I didn't vote for him didn't cut it: he represented Canada. He now heads IDU, an organisation trying to get RW govt. elected worldwide.
Sorry.
Personally, I believe you are a good guy: but in the end, tens of millions of Americans voted for exactly this.
What some people with money and power don't seem to understand is:
"With great power comes great responsibility."
That goes for countries, too.
We can build the ships for you in milwaukee so your european goods reach duluth safe and sound
Continue to be awesome, Governor!!
There's also a shit ton of snow in many states, which could mean a very bad flooding season in a month or two for millions of people.
The Orange Turd and his musky minions have made it quite clear that the States are going to be on their own.
I now consider myself a Minnesotan first.
I wake up and hope for that every single day.

There'd be a civil war.
Well. An un-civil war... these bastards cant scrape together a fiber of civility between them, even in times of relative peace.
Send the drunk guy after them?

Be careful 💙
I imagine governors representing at least 40-70% of our GDP woild join you

The Dems should have fought tooth and nail to challenge the result of the 2024 election. More and more proof is coming out to substantiate a steal!!
Even the Americans no longer trust.
#digilikes #business #trump #europe
And Dems in Washington are flailing.
"Shaky" is an understatement after the Vance speech at the MSC. Europe feels like we have been sold to Putin. What is left of our friendship?
Elon interfering with elections in Europe puts him in the same category as Putin.
The world is fed up and something needs to be done about this
But Russia is thrilled 🤷♀️

We are just acknowleging that Trump is making USA a new Russia, consolidating power for himself and his family, to rule forever, like the very Kim Yon-un he so admire.
And that for all Republicans, and a good portion of Democrats, this is just ok.
"Allies"
What are you talking about?
My fervent wish for the blue states is to secede. Those Trumpers won’t go away anymore. They have found their ugly mouth piece.
Who gains from that?
Ask Canada about harm to your economic future? We're way beyond that...
You would be great. If it not you, then maybe talk to the party?
All we have is hope for good midterms. There is no action or strong unified force against MAGA.
the USt may b divided the EU members must remain United
Ps think U would have been a Fantastic VP
"Our European allies" should read "Our former European allies." Trump prefers Putin's Russia to European democracies.
Trump's administration is incinerating American soft-power in real time. It may not recover.
We thought we were allies.
I am deeply concerned how the media is calling Elon Musks Sieg Heil Hitler Fascism salute a "strange gesture", like the New York Times headline. They Covering up for the Nazis! STRANGE GESTURE? 😡😡😡😡😡

As Forest Gump would say, stupid is as stupid does. Trump is doing so many stupid things.
Your country is an international pariah.
Why would any country want to do business / be associated with such explicit outspoken hatred & distain?
Trust in the US is gone. Most people will not tell you to your face. For every one that expresses a "concern" you can bet they are being polite and there are 10 more that think the alliance with the USA is over.
Expect Europe to play for time to rachet up defence.
Safe travels.
Say if the Netherlands signs a deal with Walz, today, for some product or whatever.
Then Trump comes along and f*cks things up. Do we really have any reassurance that will not happen?
No.
The US is not a reliable partner anymore.
.. have some fries with mayonnaise. Sate saus and onions... we know you are a good man ..Good luck... if you want to carry some favour with the Dutch.. call him a LUL .. they will love you for it

So, don't expect any valid or truthful commitments
The US seems to be imploding soon, and who will bet on a dead horse?
The US needs to show they stay committed - to the Budapest memorandum a.o. things
I miss my people.
Keep fighting for what is right, Tim. Thank you so much!
But good luck. If you came to Canada I’d prefer my government leave the table.
Nothing personal Tim, I think you’re a good man.
Take solace in the knowledge that you're on the right side of this.
I love you.
I believe you, representing Minnesota, will get a warm welcome, Mr. Walz.
The brand of USA is going down to drain very fast…
We remain ❤️🇺🇸🤍🇺🇸🩵🇺🇸.
Say he signs and agreement to manufacture something and then Trump upends it somehow..
How can any country trust anything in the USA with Trump and Elon at the helm?
Please, stop dreaming. Please.
Total population, eligible voters...who actually voted...only about 20% of all of us actually support fascism. If only the voter disenfranchisement and gerrymandering were fixed!

The first revolution started here in Massachusetts, & while we aren't war-mongers, we know what's up, & we get sh*t done.
Strength in numbers, my friends. 💪🏻🧠❤️
He needs to talk about the coup and stop living in a fantasy land.

The 🇺🇸 I ordered for them arrived. I'm putting up a pole for them and flying it half-mast before their annual trip here.
I'm hoping they don't mind.
They're all great guys despite their politics.
Question: what message are you trying to send?
Suggestion. Fly the flag upside down. That will get their attention. It represents “distress”.
Half staff. No big deal. Happens all the time in the US. The flag was half staff for 30 days when Carted died.
Sincerely,
Liz
I'm a bit torn on the upside down move. Since they'll be here in Canada, they won't be in any distress. Half mast strikes me as more appropriate, though, since I have grave doubts that the mourning for their nation will be resolved by the end of May.
I fear it will be far worse :(
All my best,
Liz

There is pushback and resistance, and I believe it's going to grow, but it's not enough where it needs to be, in Congress.
EM hacked into our federal government agencies & took control of the United States Goverment it's more than likely he did the same in our elections. He told Rogan if she wins I'm f**ked I wonder if I'd ever C my kids again 🤔That explains the firing of the AG's he must B investigated.
We live and appreciate you, Governor Walz 💙
Welcome!
Isn't it cool...?
Other countries are likely to play it safe and look elsewhere.
You should have challenged those results.
Don't wear a maga hat, don't bring guns, use Canadian money and be nice to people and no one will even know you are American.
We love Minnesota + all blue states!!!
I know, I shouldn't generalize the Muricans. Couldn't restrain myself.

10 countries still need to ratify it asap.
Hoping my country is on this.
I know I wouldn’t.
When trust is lost all else fails.
It’s good you’re there Governor Walz, as a real American representing all of us who have your back, and the backs of our friends and family in the EU.

It will be their trip of a lifetime. 🇨🇦🍁
religious nuts behind.
Cheap education ($2500/year)
Cheap healthcare ($2500/year)
Male and female paid parental leave
Job security
State pension
Once again shows what real leadership is.
I personally am sending emails to my government representatives to move away in every way possible with Americans.
Tim I did vote for you and Kamala!😔
If so, good luck! You’ll need it.
To our Dutch friends, look to Canada. We’re a hell of a lot more stable and don’t threaten our neighbours. Food for thought.
I think he's a few months behind, NO ONE wants to do business with the USA, does he not see what's going on in his country? 😂
Would be great if he at least acknowledges what's going on, instead of these lil hints as in "but this time it's different".
C'mon..
Have you seen what Elon is doing to everything? You think this matters when your social security is gone? That your health care is gone?
You think a few dollars in a small part of the country will fix this?
There's a COUP going on!
C'mon!
PLEASE!
I can't believe y'all are just walking into a dictatorship and defending the leaders who are doing nothing about it.
I can't believe what's going on down there...
Maybe he should work on that, the coup.
They tried to win, now they just gave up and went back to business as usual.
Where is your leadership!?
Well he should use his voice and talk about what is happening, not going around like it's business as usual.
He was VP FFS!
All of your leadership has just bowed out! They're silent!
Stop making excuses for this sort of behavior, we're all f*cked if these guys don't wake the f up!
Does he realize his country is threatening Canada, Greenland, the Panama canal? That we cannot trust the USA?
We're watching your gov't implode and he's trying to get business from other nations?
WTH?
Seriously.
WTH?
Walz does not appear to be understanding this, that's the problem.
We are all connected, your country f*cks up, we ALL f*ck up.
And to see this once to be VP just go around like everything is fine and IGNORE the coup?
Shame Garland let Trump go and allowed him to be a choice to vote for in the first place.
I thought dems would bring accountability in the 4 years, but all they've done was shown the corruption but didn't DO anything bout it.
Now we all suffer.
They punted their jobs off onto the voters again, and now the voters are taking the blame, not the people they voted for 4 years ago.
It's amazing to see Americans point at each other but not at leadership.
Wish I could say the same for the USA though, *sigh*.
Be kind.
Hope he publicly acknowledges what's going on.
Google Juno Beach. You’re welcome.
He Is a Good Man.
