‘If the circumstances are right, in 2028...I’ll do it,’ the former Democrat VP hopeful said

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.

    As frustrating as it was to watch it from a distance, it was orders of magnitude more frustrating to watch members of our own community, u/jordanlund , and u/FlyingSquid, convert several high-profile subs into echo-chambers effectively devoid of dissenting opinions with regards to how the Democrats were performing, how successful they were being, and what it would take to win the election.

    It really was. And now they act like we should forget they called every single one of those people as doomers, tankies, focusing more on Gaza than America, that we’re actually secret Trump supporters, russian bots, and then banned us. And then go “Where did the people who we banned go? Must have all been turned off after the election!! 🤣”

    I will never forget the people who brushed aside legitimate critcism as “single issue voters” or “russian assets”. Fucking Blue MAGA shit that is enabling the DNC to copy the Republican playbook more.
