I think I like this Gov. Tim Walz guy

He was on CNN today and said the following when asked about cheato's preparation for the debates:

"Of course he's not preparing. He doesn't prepare for anything...he's an entertainer. Now he can talk about his felonies."

"He doesn't prepare for anything...he's an entertainer." A perfect description of TFG.

I live in Michigan and Gov. Whitmer will be tough to beat but I like TW a lot too. May the best Guv win. (I don't think Newsome will make the grade...too far left)

An effective Congressman in the MN 1CD, then as Governor. He is an effective debater and campaigner. Pragmatic too.

I think he would consider a run.

I think his intelligence and charm will make him a viable candidate. There's also Shapiro, Mayor Pete and Harris. I am really looking forwrd to 28, if we are still surviving as a democracy then.
