Tim explains why Kamala Harris chose Tim Walz over Josh Shapiro as VP, framing it around the Democratic Party's internal Jewish/Muslim tension over Israel-Gaza, and mocking Doug Emhoff as an irrelevant "first husband."
- Tim introduces Tim Walz as 'funnel cake dad' and 'the king of the Great Lakes,' Minnesota's folky VP candidate.
- Tim discloses his biases: he hates Minnesota, lakes, freshwater, and the Great Lakes' cold radical culture masked by boring surfaces.
- Democrats wanted Josh Shapiro as Kamala's VP pick but she passed; Tim notes Shapiro covered up a murder involving one of his donors.
- The measure of a man is whether he'd prosecute his friend or donor if they killed someone—a test Shapiro failed.
- Shapiro's open Zionism creates a problem for Harris trying to win Michigan without angering Muslim voters.
- Josh Shapiro looks like he was 3D printed as a Jew; he's legitimately Zionist, unlike performative identity politicians.
- Kamala has to twerk around the Israel-Palestine issue, which is a major problem for Democrats with young voters.
- Young Democrats don't want to back Israel at all costs, making Shapiro an impossible VP choice for the ticket.
