New York Times columnist David French shared his opinions on the selection of Tim Walz as Kamala Harris’ vice presidential running mate on Threads.  

“Trump has a higher floor than Harris (cultish base), but a lower ceiling. He's never demonstrated majority appeal. Harris has a higher ceiling (the Democratic coalition is bigger) and a lower floor. She doesn't have the same ride-or-die base,” wrote French.

“The Walz pick strikes me as a ‘keep our team together’ pick with the knowledge that her team is bigger. I liked [Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro] as a ‘make our team bigger’ pick. But if Harris can keep the team together, she wins.”
