Tim Walz stands alone on this enormous stage in the sports arena in Chicago and looks as if he still can’t believe it himself when thousands shout “Coach, Coach, Coach” to greet him. Walz is probably aware that he won’t be able to wear the flannel shirts that Barack Obama had joked about in his speech the day before very often in the coming weeks. But why not? Because this Democratic vice presidential candidate is supposed to be exactly that: the guy next door who speaks normally, helps his neighbors and is simply a “good guy” is. A decent man. Unlike Donald Trump and his running mate JD Vance, whose election campaign strategy is characterized by toxic masculinity rather than decency.
