Vice President Kamala Harris may have just made the first big mistake of her campaign with her choice of a running mate — Gov Tim Walz of Minnesota. While he belongs to the Democratic Party, Walz is an admitted socialist and is viewed as the most far-left pick she could have made.
A litany of responses were posted online, including examples of Walz admitting his socialist proclivities in a video. It should be noted that the small ‘r’ republicanism which is the underlying governing system of the United States is 180 degrees opposite of top-down, government-heavy socialism, which is defined by collective, rather than private, ownership of the means of production. “One criticism of socialism is that, in any society where everyone holds equal wealth, there can be no material incentive to work because one does not receive rewards for a work well done. They further argue that incentives increase productivity for all people and that the loss of those effects would lead to stagnation,” says one argument. In other words, government would ‘own’ the production, and in no country where this has been tried has it been successful.
Here’s the only nine seconds needed to completely tank Tim Walz in any swing state.
He’s an admitted socialist. His words. pic.twitter.com/0335mZxbdo

JUST IN: Media buzz is rising that Kamala Harris is selecting Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her VP choice.
Who is Tim Walz? Let’s take a quick look:
• Fueled BLM Riots in 2020
• Rioters looted and wrecked Minneapolis
• Change MN state flag to resemble Somalia’s
• K*lled old… pic.twitter.com/sVWP5aGI4P— Kyle Becker (@kylenabecker) August 6, 2024
Some responses to Harris’ pick of Walz include:
Yep.
Huge win for us.
The first real mistake of her campaign.

Socialism is not caring for your neighbor, that would be charity.
Governments don’t do charity, they take and redestribute.
Without big cities and government handouts, these morons would never get elected.

Tim Walz will destroy America.
You think the markets are bad now? Wait until they hear about Tim Walz wanting to confiscate all stock shares.

Tim Walz signed a bill making Minnesota a “Trans Refugee State.”
No age limits for minors who could receive “gender affirming care.”
Truly radical.

He’s a radical leftist who is able to run as centrist then governs HARD left. Our state had a 19 billion surplus. When Walz was done, he spent every penny, then as you should always expect from Marxists, he raised taxes.
