His kids reaction was to me the sweetest moment of the convention sofar. It was real and it clearly showed how much these kids love their father and vice versa. Made me wish my dad was still around so I can hug him. Really made me understand why people love this guy. He is genuine. He lifts up everyone around him and he prioritize his family. Like really do. Its was really heart warming. Stuff I don't see in poltics anymore. Thanks Tim.

I don’t think the media needs to keep mentioning Gus’ “learning disability” his reaction was beautiful and genuine. Let’s focus on that.

Legacy media is just ridiculously awful.

Independent here. I just met him and I love him. His son Gus was the deal maker for me.

Great to see how much a son loves his father

[Foxwood]

We should all be so lucky to have someone we love so much we don't care what people think of us showing that love. And pity those people who criticize Gus as they will never understand love that goes this deep.

The former history teacher is now a part of History

God bless Trump and his family. He keeps men and women separate and bathrooms separated

[swatson]

Mr Walz seems like a wonderful, compassionate man.

[clemsonfox]

His son is such an inspiration. Make America HOPE Again

[constancereed]

Congratulations to you and your humble family members . My vote is for Harris & Walz .

[michaelreeney]

He’s an example of a good man. Great choice!

[unuxuxh]

the positivity of the Harris/Walz campaign is a stark contrast to the doom and gloom of the Trump/vance camp.

[rickywalkeraoa]

I agree ....we all have issues of some your reaction and love for your father make america wished we had a Dad like

[jeromedenis]

After the spotlight shows he's a poor protector of the US way, Tim (little boy) Walz will hopefully be kicked out of politics. Minnesota needs a patriot, not Tim Walz.

*Olivia Troye, Pence's counter terrorism advisor and a conservative republican, just spoke at the DNC saying Trump is a danger to the world and telling her republican conservatives to vote for Harris.* Let that sink in.

Hope and Gus! "That's my Dad!" applause!

Energy. Joy. Humanity. Boy oh BOUY do we need this infusion of uplifting energy! From MAGA to MAHA, let's Walz into that White House and Make America HUMANE Again💗
