[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well this CBS report about Walz and the CCP connection looks to be damning.  25 visits to China and being a fellow at an institute dedicated to the CCP?  Why does a governor need to do this.

Also an interesting read:

[i]Thirty-five years before Vice President Kamala Harris named Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate, he was on his way to teach high school in mainland China as a bloody crackdown on pro-democracy protests in Tiananmen Square took place in 1989.

...

After Walz returned to Nebraska following his year teaching abroad, he told the Star-Herald that if Chinese citizens "had the proper leadership, there are no limits on what they could accomplish."

As of 2016, Walz had visited China about 30 times, including for his honeymoon.

...

Walz has met with the Dalai Lama, Tibet's exiled leader, and has been critical of China's aggression in the South China Sea.

In a 2016 interview, Walz said he didn't "fall into the category that China necessarily needs to be an adversarial relationship," and said there could be "many areas of cooperation" between the U.S. and China. But he also said the relationship depends on China playing "by the rules."

That same year, Walz said China's human rights record was "getting worse, not better." He suggested that separating China's human rights record from trade policies, which he previously supported, was a mistake. [/i]

Sounds pretty critical of china but leaves an opening for a relationship better than the one that exists today.[/quote]
Nice contrast with Trump who praised the violent crackdown on protesters at Tiananmen Square.
