In this week's episode, Jennifer flies solo to discuss the intensifying political climate as we approach the 2024 elections. Jennifer dives deep into Kamala Harris's choice of Tim Walz as her Vice-Presidential running mate, analyzing the implications of this selection on the Harris campaign and the broader political landscape.

 

Jennifer shares her thoughts on the need for Republicans to define Walz before the Harris campaign does, and she offers a critique of Walz’s past actions and policies, particularly during his tenure as Governor of Minnesota. She also discusses the various strategic missteps she believes the Democrats have made, including Harris's VP selection and the potential missed opportunity with Josh Shapiro. Jennifer emphasizes the importance of educating oneself about the candidates and their policies before making a decision at the polls.

 

“Think about what they're actually saying, and what they have actually done in their careers.” ~Jennifer Nassour
