Harris, go ahead and debate him on Fox. All the more fun to watch Trump be destroyed in front of MAGA viewers.

Shapiro would have upset the anti-Israel movement the Dems covet, while at the same time the Jewish vote is assumed to be locked in with the Dems anyway.Interesting choice. MN isn't a battleground state.
I like the idea of Harris showing up for the debate on ABC with an empty podium for Trump, where she instead holds a town hall Q&A.The questions won't be fair. He'll debate her on her terms when he gets desperate enough.
This is a bit of conspiracy theory being spread by Republicans. That Shapiro wasn't picked because Jewish. Walz was picked quite simply because he was the best communicator in the bunch. And he connects with exactly the type of voters that Democrats need to neutralize at minimum and win if possible. He's proving fantastic at it.Shapiro would have upset the anti-Israel movement the Dems covet, while at the same time the Jewish vote is assumed to be locked in with the Dems anyway.
One of the CNN commentators last night was saying Walz is a positive populist as opposed to Trump as a negative populist. Upbeat and fun bs ranting and raving against everything. I thought that was an interesting take.
And going on social media claiming they are probably an illegal with a funny accent taking jobs away from 'honest, hard-working Americans'.yelling at the Panera Bread cashier about the drink machine being busted.
No. The anti-genocide movement democrats need votes from are already upset with Haris. Shapiro is another right wing dog whistle.Shapiro would have upset the anti-Israel movement the Dems covet
At first I was surprised she didn't pick Shapiro, but the more I see and learn about Walz, the more it makes sense to me that he was the savvy choice.It's exactly what he is. A leftist populist. And he's exactly who JD Vance claims to be: a real heartland American. It's exactly why it's working so well in this campaign. MAGA nutters have spent so much time on stereotypes and caricatures of Democrats and "the left", that they forgot what real Americans look like. And now that the Democrats have a "real American" on their ticket, the contrast being drawn, is making Republicans panic.
The best comparison I heard? Walz is the guy who randomly talks your ear off at home depot about various bolt sizes and torque requirements. Vance is the guy who is yelling at the Panera Bread cashier about the drink machine being busted.
No other nominee would have been this successful at drawing a contrast. Everybody loves astronauts and Kelly is a real life American hero. But he's not relatable. Shapiro comes off as a typical suited up politician. He may be sincere. But he can't help who he is. Walz is exactly that middle aged teacher and coach you knew in high school. And Kamala Harris is that energetic principle in elementary school. And nobody votes against their favourite teachers.
