  1. Tim Walz is the perfect man for this VP slot in this short Presidential election. He is a guy with a clear honest story that is instantly likeable and trustworthy. I love this guy!

  2. I love Tim Walz, It would be a total shame if he was not the candidate for VP. The reason is that in this very short abbreviated "primary" season, if you can call it that, he is a guy you can feel like you know and trust in mere minutes. He is dedicated, smart, quick-witted, out-spoken, funny, ... in short he is one of the only likeable people in the entire race across the parties and across the board. Another important factor is that he is a proven getter of swing-votes in Minnesota's Red districts. Since I found out about him and have listened to him - he is the perfect choice, and will in fact balance the ticket in ways far past the normal old-young, liberal-progressive, military-civilian, selecting someone hoping that they can carry their swing state. All the others are great, but they all have some drawback, and I see no drawback or problem with Tim Walz ... this is a guy you can love like an uncle and trust him to have Americans' best interests at heart, and within minutes. My fingers are crossed, I really hope Kamala can see this, and unlike Joe Biden who ( I think ) chose Kamala so as to not outshine him, I think these two, the same age, 60, can complement each other and work together for the benefit of the entire country. This could be a case of bringing back the Democratic party, because it has not done very much for Americans since the 60's. The billionaires and conservative think-tanks must be stopped in their tracks.

  3.  @dickbokinsky6797  That's a good point. I made it myself. I don't like it, and I think most other Democrats don't like it either. You're a Trump supporter so you are grabbing on to any side of an argument that can be twisted to support Trump. The problem is that Biden-Harris is completely different than Jan 6th as you well know, they are not comparable.

  4.  @brutusthecat6044  The only ones I think would be a bad pick, is not because they would be bad VPs, is Kelly because though he is a hero I think he is not photogenic, and the sad situation with Gabby Giffords would be front and center, and also Pete Buttigieg who is a very smart guy, gay and not enough real executive experience. That said - all of them could easily be a better President than we have had for a long time. There is just something really special about Tim Walz because everyone who sees and listens to him likes him almost immediately - and that is really important in this "weird" election cycle. Not to be a smart alec or anything, but I think Kamala is the week part in the voters' minds, and she will get challenged in the coming weeks brutally from Trump, Republicans and the Right-wing News Media. I think she is up for it. Just, please America, no more Trump!

  5. I think you watch too much TV and are used to make-up and special effects. Walz, to me, appears young and vital - especially in his mind and outlook.

  9. I think his questioning of WHAT AMERICANS ARE ASKING FOR THIS ... WHAT AMERICANS WANT BOOKS TO BE BANNED, OR THE ARMY TO BE USED INSIDE THE COUNTRY, OR THE PRESIDENT TO BE ABLE TO TO LAWLESS, OR CUTS IN SOCIAL SECURITY, OR THE EDUCATIONAL BUDGET ... who is demanding the government to do that. Only billionaires, and their lackeys. We have to take back this country, this government. We've been saying it for along time but no one has had to position, power or guts to actually pick up the torch and run - Walz is the first I know, aside from Bernie in 2016 who sadly bungled it and now is captive to the Pro-Palestinian Squad faction that supports him. ( that hurts Bernie ) Walz is an exceptional individual, and I think one day, VP or not, he should be President after Kamala's two terms.

  10.  @be1593  Plenty of time to be President in his own right at some point.

  11. NO EZRA! People are mad about immigration because they are being lied to from all sides. I believe this indicates that politicians are paid/supported to NOT solve this issue, and to now even talk about it, or bring facts to bear to the public. The issue is not about the low wage workers - yes, apparently America needs a virtual slave class to exist - that is another subject - but it is not the first generation workers that is a problem. The problem is many of these new immigrants from new places do not join or believe in American society or values. Finally, those people who come here are first generation. When they get educated and have children those children are lower wage workes at a higher level and bring down wages for tech workers and others in an already toxic economy and society. That is the issue - talk about it.

  12. I just read here in California the median rent in $2,800 a month. That is not affordable. Businesses are colluding to inch prices up to the point just below where it breaks people - nothing is affordable and there is no Republican plan to ever make it so - just magic of the market BS.

  13. I think the thing about having a family and buying a house is that it makes the populace more dependent. It keeps people from asking for more money, or switching jobs, or complaining too much, because most American families are slaves to their family finances - and they should not be.

  14. Ezra Klein is asking 5 minute long questions, and then constantly interrupting Tim Walz ... it really bugs me. I like Ezra Klein's podcast, but I want to hear Tim Walz talking here. Clam it for a minute EK, please.

  15. The Democratic side of this immigrant argument is false. Sure, first generation immigrants often come over and work in menial low-paying jobs. Some of the return, some of them stay, some of them get citizenship and have children, and those children do not go those jobs and end up competing with citizens here, and they do lower, or put downward pressure on wages at a time when the subject of increasing homelessness and poverty are major problems. But in our "democracy" he cannot afford to recognize this reality or talk about it because it will create voters who will vote against him, and in this way, in certain issues minorities can drive policy. Our politics become totally fake, of necessity because of the toxic incentives.

  18. I listened to this podcast and it seemed like Klein was interrupting Walz again and again.

  19. Ezra is really going off the rails interrupting and trying to make some over-thinking point?
