Tim Walz's 17-year-old son, Gus, stole the spotlight on night 3 of the 2024 Democratic National Convention in Chicago. The Minnesota governor took the stage to accept his party’s nomination for vice president. In the crowd, Gus, who has a non-verbal learning disorder, was a proud son, as he cried, stood up and mouthed while pointing to the stage, 'That’s my dad.'

Him being neurodivergent is irrelevant. He was a son showing raw emotion in a time he is super proud of his family. That’s how normal people react sometimes. He was overwhelmed with emotion and showed it. It was so beautiful to see and brought tears to my eyes. Tim and Gwen are excellent parents and have to amazing children.

Thank you Gus as you shed tears of joy as you get ready to share your father with us all. For those saying cruel things don’t understand the father/son bond they share. Shame on you

When a 17 year old boy stands up, sobs uncontrollably, and proudly says "That's my dad, " in front of the whole world, you know you are a good father.

I don't think I've ever heard a politician say 'I love you, ' and that was real. Great man.

The more I learn about the Walz family, the more I respect them and like them. Gus's joy for his Dad, brought tears to my eyes. I want Gus to know, that after just a few times listening to his Dad, and knowing a bit about him, brought tears to my eyes too. After my fear for what Trump can do to our dear Country, I am not afraid any more for our future with your dad and Kamala being at the very top, defending freedom and rights that we deserve. God bless you for the pure JOY that you are bringing into my life, and millions of citizens.

Even if the Gus Walz was not neurodivergent, visibly showing his pride in public is not something to be ashamed of. Crying is okay! It's human.

One can tell that Gus has disabilities, yet, the Republicans attacked him for crying. For showing emotions that they are all devoid of. It's sickening. Gus isn't afraid to cry even though patriarchal men have taught boys and men that they're not allowed to cry and show emotions. Gus is more man than the male dominated rightwing.

All I saw was a son who was overcome with emotion seeing his loving father on the national stage. Seeing him doing that was such a natural moment.
