The Democrats turn on…the Democrats.
According to a Fox News article that captured liberal media feedback following the VP announcement, not everyone is excited that progressive Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is Kamala Harris’ running mate.
“My fears about Harris are that she is incredibly bad at public speaking, and that she reliably makes bad political decisions. So far, she has done nothing to allay either fear. I’m not saying she can’t win, but I wish she gave me more confidence,” Washington Post columnist Megan McArdle wrote.
Professor and podcaster Damon Linker reacted, “Rather than pick the very popular governor of a neck-and-neck must-win purple state, Harris chose a dime-a-dozen blue-state governor who gives feels to progressives. That’s about what I’d have expected from her a month ago.”
More from Fox News:
Author Matt Lewis declared it wasn’t a “bad pick for Kamala” but feels Walz will do little to appeal to anti-Trump conservatives.
“If you were a Never Trump conservative who was hoping to rationalize a vote for the Dem ticket (a short-term alliance), it just got harder,” Lewis wrote.
Former CNN pundit Chris Cillizza wrote, “Such a weird choice,” while MSNBC’s Brendan Buck said the pick feels “very 2019.”
“The VP doesn’t matter a ton but I think this reflects very poorly on her decision making,” Buck posted on X.

“Incredibly, between Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, Kamala might actually be the less radical of the two,” Reason senior editor Robby Soave reacted.
Comedian Tim Young wrote, “Last time Kamala and Tim Walz teamed up: He let rioters burn Minneapolis to the ground… and she fundraised to bail them out.”
