00:00Reaching out to those folks who are in the streets.
00:03They're leading right now.
00:04So quick question.
00:05I would tell everybody, you better get with them.
00:07Yeah.
00:08Quick question because we've got to go.
00:09But you said you're not going to run for the Senate seat there.
00:12Are you going to run for a third term for governor?
00:14Are you possibly going to run for president in 2028?
00:19Well, I'm certainly thinking about running again in Minnesota if that's what they want.
00:23I am not thinking about running in 2028.
00:25And my advice to folks is if in this moment you're planning for 2028,
00:29you're going to get rolled by the people in the streets.
00:31You just need to be out there making sure you're helping
00:33and doing things like Cory Booker is doing, doing things like Bernie Sanders AOC,
00:37things that we see people out talking to folks.
00:39So for me, I'm going to get through this legislative session.
00:41If the folks in Minnesota want me, I'm kind of inclined to do that.
00:45And I just want to play my part to make sure we cannot afford to allow Donald Trump
00:49or his successor to go forward because you're seeing the pain.
00:52Good to have you back here, Governor Walz.
00:54And happy birthday, 61 years young today. Congratulations.
00:5861. Thanks so much.
01:00Good to see you.
