ANAHEIM, California — Tim Walz on Saturday delivered blunt advice to fellow Democrats in an address to party activists and officials: “We’ve got to find some goddamn guts to fight for working people.”

Speaking in former Vice President Kamala Harris’ home state, the Minnesota governor told California Democratic Party convention-goers that his and Harris’ loss last fall was a clear sign that their party’s grasp on working-class voters had slipped. It was the latest in a string of critiques he has issued while traveling the country since November.

"Harris' home-state". Just say California. He wasn't there as a personal insult to Harris, he was in the most populous Democratic state. Feels like they'd rather make this a soap opera than highlight what he's actually saying.
