    Did reporter misquote?? No abortion? He supports choice.
  • @cwtdos1994
    1:27 I'm surprised that they didn't correct the reporter's misstatement. Gov. Waltz signed the legislation that put the right to abortion and reproductive health freedom on the Minnesota books.
  • @LoloO42
    Make a correction on that reporter's "no abortion on his watch" comment! Geeze. HUGE misquote.
  • That is not the Governors Mansion, it is a temporary residence during renovations.
  • @pepp4560
    They complement each other. He let Minneapolis burn, and she bailed out the arsonists!
  • No, we like speech that actually makes sense and someone who isn’t going to sugarcoat our entire life and tells us like it is
  • @user-un4ux6ux5h
    You have to admit there is a lot of excitement and positivity coming from the Harris/Walz camp. Trump/Vance not so much. Lots of anger and infighting.

    Take a look at Minnesota. That’s what they want for America.
  • @michael7018
    Bravo! That was the only choice for the people. A people choice “not” an elitist, elitist media, and Wall Street choice. I am so happy as I taught the elitist part of the party were going to take over this process. Mr. Walz is the best communicator of the bunch and can relate with everyone and with a sense of humour. This is going to keep the enthusiasm hot and upfront with young people especially. Bravo one of the best decision I’ve seen the party finally take in a long time.
  • isn't this rather invasive, showing live footage of his personal home ????? and remarking on his lawn? we are better than this, aren't we ? other than that, great reporting, with those you brought in for comment. thank you

    Look, it’s hot dish, not a CaSsrOlE. 😆

    So you get rid of one old person for another old person?
  • @pepp4560
    She woke up, and it came to her (in the form of a text message from Barack Obama). Weird!
  • @AWOP-T.V.
    nice move, WE ARE PLAYING CHESS, NOT CHECKERS! YES...HE SMILES A LOT, GOOD ENERGY! TIME TO GET THIS ISH RIGHT.

    After the way Kamala was ridiculed for her laugh, along with Walz hopefully more can appreciate how awesome it is to hear a woman who has a fully embodied laugh. Laughing together they will get the issues in the discussion, people will know about their policies and goals and will be entertained with legitimate wit.

    Congratulation to Governor Tim Walt. I was hoping that V-President Harris would select Gov. G, Whitman but Governor Walz or any of the nominees are a Trillion Times better pick to help run the USA than a convict and that lying lizard so as a independence voter, I will be supporting the Blue Ticket.
