Former vice -presidential nominated Tim Walz was left speechlessly when he was asked who was in charge of the Democratic Party.
The governor of Minnesota seemed to be shocked by the probe of CNN's Kasie Hunt on live television on Wednesday evening, apparently unable to answer her simple question.
“Who do you think the leader of the Democratic Party is now?” Asked Hunt while he appeared in her show the Arena with Kasie Hunt.
After a long and uncomfortable break, Walz, 60, laughed awkward before he muttered an unexpected answer.
“I think the voting audience is at the moment what I would say,” he responded stiffly.
“We will not let a charismatic leader drive and save ourselves from this,” he added to his struggling party.
In the afternoon broadcast to discuss the joint congress address of President Donald Trump, was the 60-year-old politician also asked if he sees someone who might be a democratic national figure? “
“I see a lot of it,” said Walz. 'I see young members of the congress raising, I see people there, I see it here, stands senators, state laws, people who prepare themselves. Vaartbonds members who are talking there. I think what we have to do is: we can't give up the space. If Donald Trump will be there … we have to be there every day.
'We must be better organized. There will be an organic uprising that we see. '
When Hunt asked if former vice -president Kamala Harris could be the future leader of the party, Walz replied: “I certainly think she could be.”

However, Walz is not the first to fight with this question. Since the loss of Harris in November, Democratic legislators have dissatisfied with the leadership of their party or lack.
“There is no one, sure that the party, I would claim, look at whether you are led by or inspired by, the truth is,” the former Democratic representative Dean Phillips told The Hill.
The former party representative showed little hope in his tasty party and claimed that it suffers from a 'lack of leadership'.
'Every organization – business, profit motive, non -profit, political party – that misses lively leadership will suffer. And I think you can now count us to those organizations. There is just no doubt, “Phillips added.

The unpleasant interview by Walz came only a few days after he indicated that he would 'certainly consider' running for President in 2028, despite his crushing defeat last November.
'Look, I have never had the ambition to become president or vice president. I was honored to be asked, “he told the New Yorker Radio Hour on Sunday.
“If I feel that I can serve, I'll do that. And when national people say: “Guy, we tried you and see how that worked out,” I am good at that. '
“If I think I could offer something … I would definitely consider that,” he added.
Nevertheless, the Division of the Democratic Party was explicitly made clear after Democrats had various answers on Tuesday at Trump's congress address.
Hunt later asked whether former Vice President Kamala Harris could be the future leader of the party, to which Walz answered: “I certainly think she could be” “
