No, but it is suggestive that he may not be capable of being a president, if he has almost no assets at age 60. Someone who is not capable of managing their own finances well, is unlikely to be an effective or competent vice president. I am very concerned about this detail as it reflects poorly on his judgement and mental abilities. We need people that are vice president to be very accomplished and much more capable than the average person. Some random guy off the street with no assets and minimal career accomplishments clearly does not have the work-ethic or mental ability required to be vice president.

A successful state governor is minimal career accomplishment?

Like Teddy Roosevelt? Or, in total, 17 of our 45 presidents and 16 of the 49 vice presidents?

Yes, it is ridiculous how bad his finances are given that he is running for VP. That says one of two things. 1) He consistently makes poor financial decisions or 2)He is not very capable and did not have a successful career. Both of these explanations should be disqualifying for someone that is a heart beat away from the presidency.

Clearly not very successful or he would have more assets at age 60.

You guys have just gotten boring. How long do you think this attack will last before it fizzles out? 12 hours? A full day?

Well, what else do they have? They're trying to "leak" Vance info now in order to ditch that lead balloon. Grifters gotta grift, and liars are going to lie.

I am actually going to vote for Harris, because I think trump is worse, but he is clearly not someone exceptional that is capable of being a good vice president. Just pointing this out. Walz clearly has very poor decision making skills or he would be in a better place financially right now

Why? How much money should he have given his career path?

[Anonymous]

How many American couples have access to four pensions and what sounds like no debt? Are you serious?

If he wanted to shill and grift, sure, he could have sold influence for money. Kind of weird that that's who you'd elect instead, but okay.

Not everyone measures success by wealth.

I think that someone like him, rising to become the VP of a nation, is an inspiring story.

He grew up in a town of 400. I can't imagine much more successful a shot than state governorship and a solid bid at national election.

It's America's Heartland come to life.

I’m voting down ballot and leaving the top of the ticket blank or writing in Biden, so I have no horse in this race, but the whole chest clutching, guffawing thing comes off as really fake and performative to me. Sorry.

I've said this before: people who don't vote for one of the two main candidates are making a statement only to themselves. This literally helps nothing. In the race before us, there is a clearly better choice and whatever your reason for "writing in Biden," it will not be advanced by doing so.

yep. and it's cowardly and narcissistic.

Just listen to yourself. Disparaging people who don’t agree with how you vote isn’t helping your cause.

Newsflash - people can vote any way they want. Doing so does not make them cowardly or narcissistic.

You have to admit that a person who can’t be bothered to vote in a way that helps protect their friends and neighbors from the greater evil is pretty self-centered.

Once again, anyone who doesn’t vote the way you do is evil and self centered.

This is a huge part of the reason I left the democratic party.

Vote however you want. If you think the Democrats are even close to as bad (or worse) as MAGA Republicans, you’re an idiot. Trump tried to overthrow our government when he lost in 2020. He’s a rapist and convicted felon. Just for starters. But if, despite all that, you thought Democrats were the same, it would be an ethical choice to not vote or vote third party.

But if you recognize Republicans as the greater evil, it’s unethical to harm your friends and neighbors by acting in a way that empowers and enables the rapist who tried to overthrow our democracy.

So again, if I don’t vote the way you do, I’m an idiot.
This name calling is just so…enlightened.

If your take away from that is that you’re being called an idiot it means you regard Democrats as the same or worse than Republicans in which case: a) you’re an idiot; b) you were never going to vote for a Democrat; and c) it’s not worth anyone’s time and effort to convince you to do so.

Exactly. For example , where is the ~ 300,000 he sold his house for? Maybe in a money market account— would that show up on the disclosure form?
I would expect a higher level of financial sophistication at his age and that close to retirement.
