I love it when he dunks on Republicans, but at the same time this comes off as really hollow when he just announced a super unpopular RTO mandate for MN state employees, and doesn't seem at all interested in working with the unions or hearing out his constituents. Be better, Tim. My vote isn't guaranteed.

If you’re somehow suggesting you wouldn’t vote for Walz given the option against trump because of RTO, I’d say please stop shooting America in the foot.

However; yeah, the RTO needs to be addressed by Walz. It’s unacceptable. But we can’t do this again. We cannot have trump or trump like ever ever again.

I would easily vote for Walz vs Trump, every single time. That said, in a presidential primary, he's not my choice after this decision. I also wouldn't mind primarying him for an actual progressive candidate for governor if we can find one. Walz isn't terrible, but we need someone who backs workers, not property owners.

If you have a strategy that doesn't involve any concessions to the owner class I would love to hear it.

People like you are going to be the reason why the DNC doesnt change when EVERYBODY in the US wants change. They are going to fear monger in every election and say "well, at least we are not trump" and that mentality is why we got trump in the first place, offering no real change, but hey, we are not trump... and if we somehow survive these 4 years, I guarantee we are going to get an even better trump 2.0 if we are not allowed to have any sort of expectations from Democratic nominees.

Trump was inevitable because of voters with your mentality.

I’d say the exact opposite is true.

Small potatoes stuff compared to the current problems. Those types of issues can be dealt with once the cancer has been removed.

You mean the issue he created? This is a state issue, not a Trump mandate. He doesn't deserve a pass just because there are worse problems at the moment.

You don’t stop chemotherapy just because it has negative side effects on the subject. Fuck off with your purity test bullshit, it reeks of entitlement.

The time for purity tests has long passed. Wake up.

Explain what you mean by that. I didn't say he should stop with the attacks on the right, but I am saying he's not doing much better in his own state. What is Trump doing right now, RTO. What is Walz doing right now, RTO.
