He is charming. Trump sucks all the charm out of the universe.

Teen vogue? Are you a teenager?

Memes don't live on WSJ or NYT. And Twitter is a cesspool.

We found the editor, and only reader, of Teen Vogue right here on DCUM.

You can bury your head in the sand, but it has an audience of 18M Gen Z. My kid reads it.

The GOP voted for George W Bush and this issue wasn't problematic. Walz's charges were reduced to reckless driving. Walz was fined $200 plus court costs, which include the costs of the police alcohol test. He no longer drinks alcohol so apparently learned from this incident.

IMO - worse than the drunk driving charge is him trying to claim to be deaf to get out of it.

Whatever. He was 31 and this happened in 1995, almost 30 years ago. Has it happened since? Recently? Is there a pattern of this behavior? He doesn't even drink now. There's no record he said anything about poor hearing to the cop at the time of the incident, BTW. I assume that was some spin given during an election campaign. I agree it sounds like he was drunk driving and he's damn lucky he didn't cause an accident. But it also sounds like it was a one time thing, and MANY MANY politicians have much worse substance abuse issues than that; he's apologized and learned from it, and drinks no more.

Meanwhile, Trump's payoff hush money? No that wasn't potentially life threatening to anyone. But it was hugely more relevant because it was part of a pattern of contempt for the law, it was in 2016 RIGHT before the election! And also he was 70 at the time, not 31. Did Trump apologize? Say he was wrong for doing it?

Remembah when Republicans said character counts?

Pepperidge Fahm remembahs!

Democrats can explode with happiness and joy that Walz “looks normal” and pretend his folksy shtick will play with SEC fans. Hint: It won’t. People will see the things Walz has done in MN and run away from him.

I’m the PP. Mark Kelly could have made a connection with this demographic. Walz, no way (the super libs will love him, but not the moderates/independents).

I'm an independent and like him. I didn't know anything about him until today. He seems like a genuine person, with experience and some positions I agree with. Do I agree with him 100%? No. I think the Trump/Vance ticket is pure toxic waste. I'd have been fine with any of the VP finalists. Trump should have picked Haley but his ego got in the way.

She tried to score political points with PA and Jewish people and that backfired majorly when she didn’t select him - despite having a 60% approval rating in a must win state - precisely bc he’s Jewish.

And I’m disgusted by the party’s fringe reaction to her potentially selecting a Jew- looking at you, the Cynthia Nixons and the Rashida tlaibs of the party. Crying on social media that it would be a death sentence for the party to nominate Shapiro, who has called Netanyahu Israel’s worst leader of all time and is probably less pro Israel than walz - IS antisemitic. Kamala gave into a disgusting part of the dem fringe by forgoing Shapiro. I have no issues with walz, but in my opinion he’s not an asset to the campaign, sort of how Hilary picked Tim Kaine who wouldn’t overshadow her.

If Trump wasn’t the Republican nominee I’m not sure I’d vote for Kamala after this.

Wow. Why do you say she “pretended”?

If she “gave in to the Dem fringe,” how was she also “pretending”? Either she never considered him seriously, or she did consider him seriously but “gave in” to pressure. You’re arguing that she did both, which doesn’t make sense.

Clearly, Shapiro’s rejection has touched a deep nerve with you. I have been there a few times when my candidates didn’t make it, most notably HRC in 2016. I really encourage you to take some time away from the internet, away from politics news, and focused on things that make you happy.

I think Walz will be relatable. He's someone you want to have over for dinner. Will I agree with all of his positions? No. But I also know he cares and is trying to do the right thing and is really trying to make people's lives better. I would never say that about Trump or Vance.

Sorry but conforming to the peaceful transfer of power of thing is required of a president.

Come on, that sentiment can be captured in lots of better ways than "weird"

In addition to being willing to violently overthrow our government because their guy lost, a lot of Republicans are also really, really weird. The focus on genitals and racial purity? Incels hating on women and hoarding their bodily fluids? Embracing conspiracies like the QAnon freaks? Insisting that school librarians are some kind of cabal of child groomers? Fixation on other peoples' sex lives? Believing that the death of a blastocyst is exactly as tragic as the death of a three year old? Resisting laws that would allow a twelve year old rape victim to have an abortion? It's all so angry and, yes, weird.

He’s a socialist. He plays folksy while gutting anyone who disagrees with him.

Teen Vogue has had solid political reporting for years, and its audience has been primarily but not exclusively young female voters. Dismiss it if you like, but decrying it publicly makes it clear how out of touch you are.

+1. Another independent

Most people don't agree with everything a politician does, but I think he's a strategic choice to get the upper Midwest vote. I think Shapiro had too much baggage. No politician is squeaky clean. That ship has sailed. But shapiro had too much baggage.

Independent here. Had the GOP gone with Haley and the Dems stuck with Biden, I would have voted for Haley. But that’s not what happened. I want normal again. Harris Walz is a joyful, can-do team. Walz seems solid.
