Having complained forever that the Dems ignore the heartland and Real America™, we’re now learning from Chait et al about the unacceptable radicalism of selecting an ex-National Guardsman and high school football coach from small town NE whose major MN things are school lunches and fixing his truck.

Chait wants MAGA-lite?

It's not communism, it's being neighborly

Walz is literally *the* Midwest guy. And basically an independent centrist. Even Manchin likes him. The pundit class just can’t handle that Harris/Walz are not *their people*. And to that I say fuck em. You wanted Biden gone. You wanted the heartland to be represented. You got it!

It's slowly but surely entering the national consciousness that our media are congenitally incapable of describing a reality that leans towards optimism and enthusiasm.

Because when I want to take the pulse of the heartland, I first turn to "a New York political columnist since 2011."

Screenshot of a headline from New York Magazine with the headling "Kamala Harris and Tim Walz need to pivot to the center right now. Doe Harris really understand the assignment?" and carrying the byline "By Jonathan Chait, who's been a New York political columnist since 2011."
