For those of us who have had a front row seat to some of Walz’s machinations and political decision-making in Minnesota for the past several years, reconciling the current media narrative around Walz with what we’ve seen with our own eyes has been disorienting.
Tim Walz originally decided to run for office as a Democrat after being denied entry to a George W. Bush rally in 2004. He flipped a longtime red Congressional District in 2006, and then proceeded to be one of the most conservative Democrats in the U.S. Congress, ironically aligning himself with many of the Bush Administration policies. He had an ‘A’ rating from the NRA, voted for the Keystone XL tar sands oil pipeline, supported the big agriculture industry, and was obviously pro-military after serving in the Minnesota National Guard for 24 years.
and this is why our “democracy” is in shambles
nobody bothers to read articles because they automatically assume it will paint their candidate in the wrong light even when there is a fact checking bot to let you if it is worth the read
When the summary includes such a gross misrepresentation of the facts, it’s counter productive to reward them with page views to see if maybe some of the other stuff they said wasn’t bullshit…
