Afternoons Live with Tyler Axness is joined by Kendall Qualls, MNGOP endorsed candidate for Governor, to tell you how he got into politics, why he decided to seek the endorsement to run for Governor, and what he will do with the job if elected.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
I stood up at the Minnesota Republican state convention and spoke on behalf of Lisa Demuth — the candidate for governor my party didn't end up endorsing. This is my honest account of why, and the bigger problem it exposes.I'm not here to relitigate the count or the chaos. I'm here to ask the question conservatives keep refusing to ask: if we believe in value for value, what value does the MNGOP endorsement actually provide? Because we haven't won a statewide general election in twenty years — the longest active losing streak of any state Republican party in the country.Maybe the candidates running past the endorsement aren't dishonorable. Maybe they're trying to break the cycle. And maybe, if we want the endorsement to mean something, we have to make it worth abiding by — not just appeal to honor and hope.Chapters:0:00 — Why I spoke for the candidate we didn't endorse1:40 — Where I'm standing when I say this4:40 — The scoreboard we keep getting wrong6:30 — What does the endorsement actually deliver?10:00 — Why the August primary makes it worse11:40 — The closing argumenthttps://x.com/WalterHudson⬇️ Watch, think critically, and decide for yourself.
