Common Dreams: Kamala Harris Picks Progressive Favorite Tim Walz for VP.
The Conversation: Walz pick turns focus on what a VP brings to White House – 3 essential reads.
You're viewing part of a thread.
Is it really a criticism though? There's nothing of merit to it. I could see criticizing the pick based on Walz's views (though I'd probably argue against that too; Walz has a pretty stellar record).
He's basically the same age as Harris, so the "old" portion of the criticism is right out the window. What we're left with is that he's a white man, which is always what the VP pick was going to be. The unfortunate truth in this country is that a lot of voters are not ready to support a presidential ticket with two women or people of color.

I honestly had to go look that up because I didn't believe you at first. She looks good for 59.
Black don't crack, whether it's mixed with Indian or not.
I think she was 46 when she went to the VP office. It's been a rough ride. But the hope of defeating the orange man is making her feel like 35 again.
(She does look really good for 59 though.)
You aren't the judge of what is meritorious, so go fuck yourself.
You: post dumbass opinion
Me: point out that it's a dumbass opinion, back it up with why I think it's a dumbass opinion
You: Hey! You're not allowed to have an opinion!
Whatever. Enjoy your Geritol representation.
I will. Thank you. I hope your day is as pleasant as you are.

Kamala is one year younger than him. Why are you not bitching about her age?
Probably because she wasn't just announced. Just a hunch.
Why does that matter?
Ok fine, she's old too.
Thank you for being consistent.
You're on a public forum, anyone capable of reading your comment gets to judge whether or not it's meritorious. Choke on it.
