Kamala Harris has chosen her running mate, and it’s Minnesota Governor Tim Walz.

He has effectively criticized Donald Trump and J.D. Vance in TV interviews, even venturing into enemy territory on Fox News. And he’s credited with first inspiring Democrats’ “weird” attacks on Trump and the GOP, giving the...
