I like the guy. Very well spoken.

He hit it out of the park. Kamala/Waltz is all about joy and working together.

Trump/Vance is the opposite.

This would be a great pairing to play them on SNL. I also saw somebody suggest Zach Galafinakis to play Vance and I can see it if Zach were younger.

Holy shit Walz is good. Putting Obama to shame.

I was ready to say Kamala had made a mistake leaning left rather than center for the VP pick. But I will happily admit I was wrong. Wow.

He’s got a lot of charisma. I was almost afraid he was being too warmly embraced by the crowd and didn’t want him to outshine Kamala. Would almost vote for him over Kamala just by that appearance. Nobody said that about Vance.

I saw my first attack on Walz by Couch Boy. He was claiming Walz deserted his military friends going to Iraq by leaving the military and pursuing a career in politics. I hope they can do better than that.

I heard some opponents are calling him "Tampon Tim" because he passed a bill to put feminine hygiene products in bathrooms in MN... What a radical!

They can't. They just make shit up and the mouth breathers repeat it as fact on social media, it's all they ever do.

Again, Vance appearing to tiny crowds while Harris/Walz have tens of thousands in line and packed arenas. I don't think this is a good look for Vance/Trump. IMO they should re-task Vance to appear in other areas rather than going to the same cities as Harris/Walz and being overshadowed.

They deeply hate trans people. It's become one of their core issues.

God forbid there's any refuge for trans people. Are they not people as well? All of this transphobia is really confusing me. When did people stop minding their own damn business? Social media is the worst.

I'm seeing tons of tweets and stories on my timeline about Walz and his military service. This is a really dumb non-story to me. He served for many years in multiple countries, and then he put in for his retirement and ran for Congress. Some months after he retired, his Nat Guard unit got asked to deploy to fight in the war in Iraq. He retired before this deployment happened by many months. What's the problem? I think it is really dumb to go after another person's military service in that way. There's just no "there" there.

It’s a battle. They had to lob some sort of grenade. Their first attempt fell short. I’m sure they have an army of people scouring everywhere to find some dirt on Walz.

The Harris/Walz campaign issued their own hats to compete with the red Maga hats and they chose camouflage, which has pissed off the NRA. I think it’s kind of comical.
