Usually when a presidential candidate is looking for a running mate, they’re searching for someone who can shore up their numbers in a crucial state or region and who could also potentially balance out the ticket ideologically.
That’s exactly why many thought Vice President Kamala Harris’ choice of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz was an odd one; she was already heavily favored to win in deep blue Minnesota but could use some help in hotly contested Pennsylvania. Why not choose popular PA Gov. Josh Shapiro—was it because he’s Jewish and she didn’t want to alienate the anti-Israel crowd?
One thing she probably didn’t count on was that she would lose support in Minnesota following the pick, yet that’s precisely what’s happened, according to one poll. You’d think voters in the guy’s home state would be excited to see him on the ballot, but maybe they know him all too well.
Harris is probably wishing she could go back in time right now and choose someone else because the far-left Walz has come with all sorts of baggage.
Poll results show she’d be up big against Trump in Pennsylvania had she chosen Shapiro.
So why did she choose a Betamax, valor-stealing doofus from Minnesota over Shapiro? We all know why. There was no logical reason for Harris to go with Walz, a baggage-laden radical from a non-swing state. It’s clear she only did so to appease the Hamas simps in her party.
That about sums it up.
