Tim Kaine introduces himself as Clinton’s VP pick

Campaign aides say repairing Clinton’s image with the American public will take more than just one speech or even a four-day convention.

In his speech, Kaine mimicked and demolished Republican Presidential nominee Donald and threw in Spanish colloquialisms, all in a down-home, quasi-goofy delivery style that had Twitterati in splits and that inspired dozens of “dad jokes”. Tim Kaine as her running mate, bringing a swing-state centrist to the first woman-led presidential ticket for a major party.

“I think we should all Feel the Bern and not get burned by the other candidate”, he said, referring to Trump.

Thank you for your support! .

“Clinton, Kaine, and Richards are absolute extremists pushing the Democratic Party further and further on abortion, alienating the one-third of Democrats who call themselves pro-life”, Dannenfelser added. “She had thick blond hair, big glasses, wore no makeup, and she had a sense of strength and self- possession that I found magnetic”. “She always wants to move the ball forward”.
