Tim Walz says he may run for president in 2028 despite failure of Harris campaign - eviltoast

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.

    Walz is likable and has that working class appeal, but his debate performance wasn’t great. I’d vote for him, but I don’t think he’ll make it through the primaries. I’d much rather have Pete Buttigieg personally.
