I won't let anyone dupe me.
Especially those who tell me that it is a coincidence that Biden withdrew few days after the Trump's attempted murder.
Weird.

Last night I was watching MSNBC and the pundits were all quite certain they knew who the VP candidate should be. Shapiro of course! And for all these good reasons. I said to my SO, I so hope she picks someone else, not because I have anything against Shapiro or any of the possibilities, it's just that these guys are so smug, so sure they know best. I woke up this morning, read the news on my phone and grinned all over my face.
More seriously, she will have to contend with the often unconscious male superiority that we men have, throughout the campaign and later (please!) as President. There will be times when she will need to say "jump" and have others respond "how high?". She has to establish herself as the boss in ways that a man doesn't have to, and maybe this is a good start.

Walz supported and signed into law:
Red flag laws for guns. Supported by nearly 70% of Americans.
Legalization of marijuana: Supported by the 70% of Americans.
Paid family and medical sick leave: Supported by 80% of Americans.
Universal free school meals: Supported by 60% of Americans.
Codifying abortion rights: Supported by 63% of Americans.
Yeah, go ahead and make this a political issue MAGA. Let's see how that works out for you.

I follow Jess Piper on Substack. Here's her take this morning:
Walz is so perfect for the job of VP. He’s a rural progressive. He’s my people. A dirt road Democrat. He’s a liberal guy who lives among conservative folks. He’s a veteran, a teacher, a lawmaker, and a dad. Walz can speak to Republicans and can likely help pull in Independent votes.
He can show up to an event in a tee and a hat and a Carhart jacket and not look like he’s trying to be something he isn’t.
Walz is the guy who could install your gutters and snake your drain and patch a hole in your drywall. He can also sign a bill into law to feed every kid in your state breakfast and lunch for free. How can you not love the guy?
Here are just a few of his education and child-centered accomplishments:

Exactly, this is why she could not select him, he supported Israel in the past.You'd rather have someone as VP who volunteered to serve a foreign army but not the US army? Shapiro has done a lot for...Israel!

Pretty much. When you combine crypto and AI...not good in the fight against climate change.

Trump is in deep doodoo, he is up against a situation he can't fire someone or sue them which only leaves denigrating them in his attack arsenal.
That strategy just got "trumped" by the word weird and it is obvious he has no real platform but project 2025 for his base.

Thank you for that clearly very level-headed and reasonable take on the issue.

And before she picked her VP the UAW said...
"Washington — United Auto Workers President Shawn Fain says Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz are the union's top two picks for Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate, though he noted that the decision is hers to make."
UAW president says Beshear, Walz are union's "top two" VP picks for Harris
United Auto Workers President Shawn Fain said Sunday that Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz are the union's top two picks to be Kamala Harris' running mate.

So what is it you are trying to say?I won't let anyone dupe me.
Especially those who tell me that it is a coincidence that Biden withdrew few days after the Trump's attempted murder.
If the attempt had been successful do you think Biden still would have withdrawn?
No...what I am saying is that the Democratic Party thought that Biden was not the right candidate, after that.

It was on fire when I laid down on it.
I believe master sgt is two ranks below a command sgt major.

Walz Has Faced Criticism for His Response to George Floyd Protests
Some believe that Gov. Tim Walz should have deployed the Minnesota National Guard sooner when riots broke out following the police murder of George Floyd.www.nytimes.com
The man is indecisive , freezes under pressure. and he's likely going to get people killed.
He also has a criminal DUI record.
Uh-oh. This could be bad. Republicans could never vote for someone with a criminal record, them being tough on crime and all.
Apparently, Walz pled guilty in 1995 to reckless driving. The DUI charge was dropped. Stealing classified documents, sexually molesting women, committing financial fraud, election interference--those pale in comparison to a DUI charge that didn't stick.

Many of them thought that and voiced Biden should drop out after the debate two weeks prior to the assassination attempt.
The pressure kept mounting from donors, friends and colleagues and finally came to a head 24 days later and Biden dropped out.
Now if there hadn't been calls for him to drop out prior to the assassination attempt it might seem a little fishy.

"Walz attained the rank of command sergeant major near the end of his service,[25] but retired as a master sergeant in 2005 for benefit purposes because he did not complete coursework at the U.S. Army Sergeants Major Academy"
