Vice President Kamala Harris' loss in the 2024 presidential election has sparked discussions among Democrats, with some engaging in what has been described as the 'blame game.' One notable reaction came from a commentator who pushed back on the idea that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz was responsible for Harris' defeat.

The commentator argued that Gov. Walz would have been content to remain in Minneapolis and was not the cause of Harris' election loss. Additionally, the commentator dismissed the notion that Harris would have fared better with Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro as her running mate.

Highlighting the decision-making process, the commentator emphasized that Harris was ultimately responsible for selecting Gov. Walz as her running mate. The commentator pointed out that Gov. Walz had recently mentioned not having spoken to Harris in days, questioning why blame was being directed at him.
