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.
Lots of former Vice Presidents become Presidents later on. John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Martin Van Buren, Teddy Roosevelt won reelection, Richard Nixon, HW Bush, and Biden, all became presidents in their own right.
So we have Biden, sandwiches between the worst president ever because the primary was a force and we literally had zero options…
Then 37 years earlier when HW replaced Reagan and carried his torch…
So the two examples are the VPs of two of the most charismatic president, and they were both attached to them because their own complete lack of ability to win primaries precluded them from making it to the general?
Like, I’m pretty sure you won’t realize you’re making my point…
But c’mon man, you really can’t see that VP is where presidential ambition goes to die and the only thing that changes it is for their president to have been insanely popular with their own voting base?
You don’t even have a little tingle that you’re wrong here?
No doubts that maybe the other person knew what they were talking about?
