MSNBC host Joy Reid suggests Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) is not the safest pick for Vice President Kamala Harris’ running mate.
In a video posted on TikTok, Reid said, “This is not the pick I expected she would make… I thought she would go astronaut.”
Her comment referred to Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.), who was an astronaut.
“He, to me, would have been the safest, most conventionally safe pick. White, super white, like mayonnaise sandwich on wonder bread white, from a border state, he could have made a strong argument for her handling of the border,” she added.

Harris had reportedly narrowed her search for a running mate to Kelly, Walz, and Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro.
And after choosing Walz, progressives were thrilled.
In a separate video, Reid said of Walz, “This is the happy pick. It’s a heart pick. It’s a smart pick. It’s a pick that comes from a position of strength.”
“This is VP Harris owning it and owning her strength and saying, ‘no, I don’t have to pick who the sort of focus groups would tell me to pick. I’m going to pick who the heart picks,” she added.
