Harris Campaign Scared to Deploy Tim Walz For Hilariously Telling Reason
Quote:While Donald Trump's running mate JD Vance has been barnstorming the country, doing dozens of events and interviews, Kamala Harris' would-be second-in-command has been kept in a box. While Tim Walz has awkwardly read a teleprompter a few times, he has yet to do a single interview or press conference.
That's a noticeable departure from how vice presidential nominees typically operate. They're supposed to be an attack dog. Someone who can go into the lion's den and put up a good fight. Vance has proven he can do that. Meanwhile, Walz is doing "white guy taco" videos and helping stage the gas station Dorito runs. To use a word the Minnesota governor has an affinity for, it's weird.
A new report is shedding some light on why Walz has been so confined, and it's both telling and hilarious.
What about Tim? One of the issues that Harris world is currently working to address is how to deploy running mate TIM WALZ in the media. The danger in sending him out to do big solo interviews is that he might not have a full command of where Harris is on every issue. As someone pointed out to us last night, Harris talks about the “opportunity economy,” but if Walz were asked to define it, would he know how?
Think about that. Kamala Harris' policy positions are so nebulous and undefined that her own running mate doesn't have a grasp of where she stands. This is a presidential ticket that has been together for a month, and Walz still can't be trusted to do interviews without possibly contradicting her. If this were a Saturday Night Live skit, what would be different?
Here's the thing, though. Kamala Harris also doesn't have a grasp of where she stands. There's a reason her website still doesn't include a policy platform despite the Democratic National Convention having concluded. She is an awful politician hiding behind a teleprompter who doesn't hold a single principle other than her support for abortion until birth. Everything else is up in the air depending on what she thinks will help win her the election.
The above article claims that Walz might not be able to define the phrase "opportunity economy," but I'd bet a lot of money that Kamala Harris can't either. It's nothing but an empty slogan meant to elicit an emotional response from people who vote based on vibes. The empress has no clothes. There is nothing behind the facade of the Harris campaign. It's being propelled by nothing but a biased press going along with the "joy" and "brat" gambit.
I'm too much of a natural cynic to tell you it's not going to work. Certainly, Harris has gotten a lot of mileage to this point out of her bubble-wrap campaign. I'm hopeful, though, that the house of cards could collapse. Eventually, Harris and Walz will have to do some interviews. They will have to debate. There will be off-script moments. When that happens, voters will have a front-row seat to how pathetic this presidential ticket truly is.

They should just send out a campaign spokesperson. That's his job.

RE: Harris Campaign Scared to Deploy Tim Walz For Hilariously Telling Reason
This is a helluva mess. We have a Presidential candidate that the Dems are afraid to let go out on her own, b/c she has no grasp of any concept even randomly bumping up against a legit issue. All we get is word salad.
Then we have a VP candidate who also can't go out on his own, b/c he has no clue what his running mate's platform is.
So the MSM give them a free pass, and they're gonna play "Hide in Plain Sight" as long as they can get away with it.
Can you imagine if these two far-left bozos are actually put in charge of our country for the next 4 years?

It sure as hell matters if you don't want those two running the country. Four years of the Vegetable is too damn many. Four more years, and the USA will be a socialist country with a one party system.
So yeah, it freaking matters.

Agree. That's a terrible thought.

RE: Harris Campaign Scared to Deploy Tim Walz For Hilariously Telling Reason
It’s interesting the source of this Red State piece is from Politico.
If it’s on Politico… The Democrats are worried about it or trying to answer grumbling in its ranks.
They don’t call it the playbook for anything.

I wonder how much in trouble someone would get if they shouted at Walz "Mr. Timmy Tampons, has your son gotten good use of the tampons that you put in boys restrooms?" He couldn't get mad because supposedly that's why he put them there.

Yea, except we know already they won't really be "in charge" of schit. It'll be the same cabal that has been in charge during this current disaster of an Admin. Trading 2 bozo's for 2 other bozo's.
It truly is a clown show.
