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.

    There will absolutely be an election.

    It will be a farce, a Russian election where there’s only one possibility to win.

    If we’re not pitchforks in the street before then, I don’t hold much hope

      Or maybe a Hungary-style election where the entire media landscape shills for the ruling class and people on social media are bombarded with misinformation and one-sided reporting.

        Sounds like you described the US process as well. May not be far from it now.

        Certainly could never happen here, twice at least. /s
