Biden’s endorsement of Kamala Harris’s selection of Tim Walz as her running mate is richer than a chocolate cake at a vegan convention. After standing back and letting Harris make the big choice for the 2024 Democratic presidential ticket, Biden gleefully declared it a “great decision” on social media, probably hoping to take some credit for a move that seems to have been thrown together faster than a 10-day notice for a yard sale.
It’s no secret that the Harris-Walz duo has Milwaukee liberals popping the champagne while normal Americans shudder at the thought of what’s coming. Biden, in his endless push to embolden a party that’s been caught trying to outcrazy itself for years, claimed that every generation must defend American democracy—though one has to wonder what democracy he’s speaking of when the left usually defines it as getting their way or the highway. This sentiment might sound good on paper, but many would argue the only thing that needs defending is the average American’s sanity from the chaos of radical leftism.
Biden’s relationship with his party appears as vibrant as a gray crayon lately, fitting well with the fact he’s already accustomed to sidestepping responsibility. With whispers growing louder about his diminishing support and debates gone awry, he’s practically handing over the reins to Harris, allowing her to take the spotlight with a surge in polling—much to the chagrin of the country, which appears less-than-enthusiastic for a repeat of the last four years.
At the crux of this new campaign are messages that would make even liberal teachers shake their heads. Old Barack Obama, eager to remain relevant, also jumped on the bandwagon, showering Walz, the supposed “ideal partner,” with compliments about his time in the military and his high school teaching days. The left may want to pump the brakes, though. Who needs all those accolades when Walz’s record has shown he champions policies that resemble a California dumpster fire? With his talk of carbon-free goals and stricter vehicle emission standards, the Trump campaign has branded him the embodiment of all things radical, reminding voters that the Harris-Walz ticket may throw sanity out the window alongside American values.

Moreover, Trump’s campaign is reveling in the opportunity to paint the duo with a wide, brush-stroke of leftism, warning that the Walz-Harris collaboration will take a wrecking ball to common sense. With Walz touting family leave policies and voting rights for felons, the argument is simple: They’re crafting a vision that mirrors California’s less-than-illustrious path. As the red contrast to the blue ticket grows sharper, average Americans must brace for the interpretation of their dreams that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are peddling; it unfortunately resembles more of a nightmare.
