Is that an example of Trump's pivot towards unity, or simply more harmless right-wing rhetoric? Asking for a friend.

Tim Walz drawing widespread vocal support across the ideological spectrum of the party from Joe Manchin to Bernie Sanders is pretty impressive.

Politics as played at the presidential level is multilevel chess (Trump...not so much. ). Couple that with a good portion of wet finger in the air and a weighing of who you can afford to dis and still get their vote......and who you can not dis and get their vote.......we all know this.
How the decision was tilted by Michigan is a wonder.
Perhaps Team D figures it's a better bet not to rile up the part of their coalition that hates Israel, that being balanced against the traditional fact that most Jewish folks in this country simply vote Team D and will generally keep doing so.
We just can not know what math and metrics and polling they did in the dark recesses of the castle.

Tim Walz was the highest ranking soldier to ever serve in Congress.

Tim Walz was the highest ranking soldier to ever serve in Congress. Benedict Arnold was a solder.....so what's your point?

I think the point is that Walz appears to be a decent, regular guy with midwestern sensibilities, a patriotic military serviceman and an experienced popular politician. Compared to FF45 or his turncoat running mate Walz is a breath of fresh air. Hope this helps.

It was great that Walz jumped all the black people to the front of the kung flu shot line

I'm thinking rural midwestern vote. That seems to be the consensus. I am not sure I agree with it, but I ain't working for the Harris campaign.

What’s his stance on childless cat ladies? And has he called his running mate Hitler? This is stuff I’m going to need to know.

Walz is so far left Manchin has endorsed him.
Senator Joe Manchin: "My friend Governor Tim Walz will bring normality back to the most chaotic political environment that most of us have ever seen."

Is Walz that guy who refused to call in the National Guard when the rioters were burning the city down?

It's called balancing appeal to the voters. The base in either party can't elect their candidate by themselves. They need the moderates and the undecided.
