@Fellixe Who is that?
@TheAbbotTrithemius Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. According to Bloomberg he'd be in the final 3 for VP
JFC that warm caring genuine smile and Kamala’s infectious genuine laughter would be just what people are starved for…
Hmm… there’s a theme there right? Wonder why??
@TheAbbotTrithemius @Fellixe
Roy Cooper & Josh Shapiro come off (to me!) as less authentic. They’re great, they won! Both are politician-y. Lol
Walz is very in tune with rural America.
Kelly very clued in on border problems.
@TheAbbotTrithemius @Anouk Kelly is also familiar with Senate procedure in a way that eliminates much of the VP learning curve and he had great skill at bringing conservatives along on issues which would be invaluable in moving legislation
@Anouk @TheAbbotTrithemius @Fellixe
Roy Cooper is actually 💯 authentic. He has done as amazing job in our state of NC especially fighting GQP to protect citizens during pandemic. He is NOT intimidated at all to take them on.
Cooper would balance Harris with his steady & reasonable demeanor.
@LnzyHou @Anouk @TheAbbotTrithemius @Fellixe
I am a Cooper fan as well after seeing him in action and holding his own with Repubs here.
@LnzyHou @TheAbbotTrithemius @Fellixe
You know when someone reminds you of someone IRL that you don’t like? Cooper is that.
I think that’s what’s happened. That’s why I stressed it’s *me*.
I’m fine with Cooper or Shapiro.
My Pennsylvania friends want Shapiro, of course.
@LnzyHou @TheAbbotTrithemius @Fellixe
Ooooh. Mystery. 🤔
@TheAbbotTrithemius @Fellixe
It’s never assured, but it can help!
Shapiro is a good pick too.
My preferred picks are Walz, Kelly, and maybe Beshear
@TheAbbotTrithemius @Anouk @Fellixe Tim Walz did an interview with Jen Psaki. Was the first I"d heard of the guy. He seems very genuine and warm. Personable. When he spoke about JD Vance wanting to take away IVF with Project 2025, he became a little angry. I believe his children were conceived through IVF. He said it was none of the government's business.
I'm no authority, but I liked the guy.
@GeezerWench @TheAbbotTrithemius @Fellixe
I love him. He made Stephanie Ruhle laugh on her show “The 11th Hour”.
Can’t remember wording, basically asking if Vance is aware of the internet & it’s cats that have the monopoly on content. 😁
@GeezerWench @TheAbbotTrithemius @Anouk @Fellixe He sounds like he's been picked already. Or like he's letting Harris know his speeches are written and his bags are packed.
@TheAbbotTrithemius @Anouk He's extremely well liked on labor issues and done of the thinking is he can help bring along Michigan and Wisconsin voters as well as Minnesotans
