That's a surprisingly progressive ticket. Who would have guessed that the 2024 election would be between a lawyer & School Teacher (before politics at least) and a dementia riddled real estate mobster and a couch fucker

couch fucker

Squirrely Dan: "Allegedly."

Squirrely Dan: Allegedlys he fucks thems couches.

That’s why they won’t let him campaign in Davenport, Iowa

I'm looking at Davenport right now across the river, those dudes fuck some couches. Frankly I'm surprised they aren't giving him the key to the city.

Only reason they haven’t given him the key to the city is that someone lost it and they’re still looking for it between the cushions

Haven’t you ever seen the shows where they help people overcome their addictions? The first step is removing them from their current environment so that they’re not triggered to relapse.

Man he really took that Dave Chapelle skit seriously...

a progressive ticket with one of the post popular governors in the country who was able to be a governor because he was relatable and popular enough with rural republican minnesotans

It makes sense. He was big on in person campaigning. I've shook his hand and chatted with him, my dad had lunch with him a while back.

Hes a no-nonsense guy. He's from Nebraska, retired Command Sergeant Major, taught in a small town, and listening to him reminds me of my grandfather who was a very popular educator and farmer in the midwest. It's hard not to like him.

Any worry that the gov seat will go republican now?

not likely; but if walz does win, peggy flanagan would take over and probably have a big boost going into a full term.

Dems have been sneaky progressive since like 2018. It's been a real breath of fresh air. With the Biden Administration's achievements and policy goals basically being a leftist's wishlist, I'm excited to see what a Harris Administration can do on top of that.
