Summary

Former vice presidential nominee Tim Walz criticized Trump for economic chaos while taking personal responsibility for the situation during an MSNBC interview.

“We wouldn’t be in this mess if we’d have won the election — and we didn’t,” Walz told Chris Hayes. He called Trump the “worst possible business executive” and praised the Wall Street Journal’s editorial criticizing Trump’s tariff war.

Walz emphasized Democrats must offer something better, not just criticize Trump. Recently, he acknowledged a leadership void in the Democratic Party and admitted spending too much time combatting Trump’s false claims about immigrants.

    Dude, give it up. You’re arguing with someone who thinks that the democrats run fair primaries.

      It’s like telemarketers: I’m bored and the longer they’re arguing with me the less harm they can do elsewhere.

      I didn’t say that. I said they had primaries (which I learned Florida and Delaware did not), challengers could run, and delegates voted for Harris. All of those things are true. What is also true but I didn’t mention is challengers were still able to declare ahead of the convention after Biden dropped out (correct me if I’m wrong but I believe some did).

      The problem was that there were no better candidates to vote for. Which is the fault of the candidates who could have run but didn’t. I’m not blaming the voters for candidates not running. An incumbent dropping out after winning the primaries is unprecedented. An expectation of organizing a second primary is just unrealistic.

        Arguing with you is pointless for the reason I mentioned.
