    Walz is a typical democrat.

    He talks a big game and has great bluster.

    but when the cards hit the table, he rolls over, shows his belly and shits himself

    He should have activated the national guard weeks ago. He should have had them on the streets everywhere that ICE was at, Following them where ever they went, with orders to intervene anytime they stepped out of line.

    He should have been ordering every state law enforcement agency to follow ICE, and arrest them every time they abducted a child, every time they assaulted an innocent civilian, anytime they’ve murdered an innocent person.

    but instead of doing anything useful and proactive to protect his state, he keeps going on twitter and begging “pwease mistur pwesident, stahp hwurting my pepulz. pretty pwease?”

          I don’t know why you think this is the secret that ends his career. Dems fail the purity tests of the type of people that actually care about that and voted Trump by not showing up. Or in even worse cases, went full horseshoe theory and actually voted Trump.

            Refusing to vote for the dogs of a genocidal regime is less “purity test” and more “basic humanity”.

              No, see, you were given a choice.

              a) Reasonably tepid president’s vice president. No great achievements, but no strongly notable transgressions against the people of the country. Policies not actively progressive but not actively hostile. Supports Ukraine. Supports Israel. Runs on the platform of moderate politics.

              b) Multiple times convicted felon, strongly suspected of being a pedophile and child trafficker. Catastrophic first term. Weak foreign policy in first term, already schmoozing up to military enemies of the country. Supports nothing but his own pocket.

              How is that not a purity test? Even if you’re a normal person that is sternly anti-Israel, you have singled out one issue in which one candidate performs (probably, we don’t even know) worse than the other one. And still outperforms the other one on all other issues unless you’re a ten toes down white supremacist with the sole life goal to make sure people with a darker skin color suffer and a deeper pocket prosper. That’s what we call, say it with me, a purity test. Your refusal to go out and vote is complicity in the murder of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. Don’t preach to me about humanity, you’re probably not even from the US.

                against the people of the country.

                Thing is, I care about humanity, not just “the people of the country”. Therefore, “supports Israel” is a dealbreaker.

                Supporting the existence of Israel is supporting genocide. I will never vote for someone with such blood on their hands. If you would, especially to maintain your own comfort and privilege, then your soul is compromised.

                  But “supports Russia” is fine I suppose?

                  Lots of humanity in “child sex trafficker”, “pedophile”, “rapist”, right?

                  Delusional. Stop pretending you care about humanity. You care about this one specific issue.

                    Wtf are you talking about Blue MAGA? Trump also supports Israel. I didn’t vote for him.

                    Unless you want to play the “you voted for him by not voting for Holocaust Harris” game. Which means I also must have voted for Holocaust Harris by not voting for Trump. Infinite vote glitch!

        Oh look, someone using their imaginary narrative of things no one said to try and derail the topic.

        Gee, I wonder what group of people would have a vested interest in trying to derail this topic, by claiming people are calling for blood in the streets… while ICE is literally pouring gallons of blood in the street every day that they never seem to have a single critical comment on. 🤔
