Tim Walz: a fake progressive sent to rescue the sinking Democratic Party.
After Biden's meltdown, the Democrats are hoping to reenergize people with a supposedly "progressive" pick for Kamala Harris' running mate.
He's a white zionist; that automatically disqualified him from 'progress' afaic
Doesn't that describe the majority of Democrat politicians?
Yeah, there's an increasingly smaller pool of simultaneously non-white and non-zionist Democrats, few enough that I expect the last few holdouts to be swept away by the end of the year. Mark my words, this time next year, the DNC will only be genocidal white ghouls and their coon-assed minstrels in the Congressional Misleadership Caucus.
Not the US crackkkers having a thing called Mayo Clinic lmao
I remember the early days of the Biden presidency when he was being hailed a progressive. Seems like Liberals haven't anything.
"Progressive" is such an empty word to begin with. It's like when calling someone a reformer is too far, so they use an even weaker word to describe what they do. "Sometimes they may do stuff that isn't 100% cartoonishly evil. So progressive."
The standards for the democrat party are in the sewer.
But he made a couch joke!!
he's a democrat at the end of the day, but at least he looks like a less crappy choice than a rape apologist like vance
Ultimately they all are fervent rape apologists and promoters. Otherwise, why would they be backing Israel? Or do only rapes on Americans count?
As far as the real options go, you literally couldn't have had better? Yeah he's not a MLM, what a surprise. But I'll take a governor who has a record of directly improving people's lives - school breakfast and lunch, Pre-K, time off for parents, abortion/trans/IVF rights, gun regulations, ecological legislation, etc. To say that it's a "fake progressive" by the standards of the democratic party is insane, who the fuck isn't then? Even on Palestine he's the "stop the fighting, two-state solution", which is as radical as a politician can possibly get regarding US foreign policy.

Is he calling for a complete stop to any and all aid to the genocidal Zionist psychopaths? No? Then everything else is just lip service. Come back to us when you have a candidate who will refuse to give weapons and money to child murdering rapists, then maybe we'll think about whether "progressives" are worth anything.
On one hand you have this fake progressive guy:
And the other option was this:
I stg whenever positive American politics or policies come up, this community throws out the dialectics and defaults to "america bad". Tim Walz is better for the country than every other option that was on the table, all the Newsoms and Buttigieges of the dem party. This is not a point of contention, this is the material conditions that we're under.
