While Democrats are losingtheir minds with enthusiasm for presidential nominee Kamala Harris’ VP pick, MinnesotaGov.TimWalz, his presence ontheticket reminds meofreal-life nightmares he created for his own state.
In his four yearsasgovernor, Minnesota became near unlivable and dangerous forits citizens and a killing field forthepreborn. His remarkable cowardice and carelessness are personalasit destroyed businesses, friendships, family members andtheplaceIonce called home.

Voters can’t afford to take that chance byignoringWalz’s record, which allowedthemass sufferingofthepeople he was supposed to protect.Theshallow self-portraitWalzis painting doesn’t matchthestark reality hecreated forMinnesotans.They have felttheheat fromtheflames, financial disaster, and physical loss from his recklessness. He has failed Minnesota students, young women, families, business owners, minority communities, our police forces and livelihoods.
Walz should never bethenext vice presidentoftheUnited States. Minnesotans deserve so much more thanwhathas happened tothem, andthelast thing America deservesisTimWalzdoing tothenationwhathedidto his own state.
