Summary
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has criticized the Harris-Walz 2024 presidential campaign for playing it too “safe,” saying they should have held more in-person events and town halls.
In a Politico interview, Walz—known for labeling Trump and Vance as “weird”—blamed their cautious approach partly on the abbreviated 107-day campaign timeline after Harris became the nominee in August.
Using football terminology, he said Democrats were in a “prevent defense” when “we never had anything to lose, because I don’t think we were ever ahead.”
While acknowledging his share of responsibility for the loss, Walz is returning to the national spotlight and didn’t rule out a 2028 presidential run, saying, “I’m not saying no.”
I have not once claimed I am currently a dem on this website. I have said Multiple times that I used to be one. I’ve been an independent since 2016.
Multiple people on Lemmy have marked me as a conservative/Republican incorrectly because I have one or two stances that don’t align with the left and they assume that I must be a full on Trumpy because of that.
You can see right there that most of my opinions land me pretty much smack dab in the middle of most categories.
68.7% predjudicial is why you run into problems with dems. So maybe stop commenting on dem issues-- you’re not a dem, so youre just trolling. No one likes a troll.
You’re more right than left on 4/5 of those axis, yet you think you’re on the left? Overall you’re ~22% more conservative than liberal: that’s significant
Oh, and the one axis giving you “liberal” points is the auth/libertarian one, which usually doesn’t have jack shit to do with left/right (you can be very pro-restriction and be leftist, those are called tankies)
So maybe you need to re-think yourself or your beliefs, they don’t seem to align with reality
