Doesn't matter what side you are on, this is very touching. If your child is as proud of you as this boy is of his father you've done your job well!

As a father, this is what makes all of the hard work and lack of sleep worth it.
It’s so refreshing to see a normal person rise to being able to run for the second highest office in our country.

I love that beautiful hearted kid. So sweet.

Beautiful moment anchored in genuine love. It doesn’t matter what your politics is. A beautiful family and that kid loves his father wholeheartedly. Raw and unfiltered emotions. Awesome indeed!

Ain't that America? Proud dad of a 31-year old nonverbal son with severe autism...it will be so nice having a down-to-earth, real guy with a great family serving as VP.

[SharonWasson-sr]

Love you Gus Walz! America is loving you too! ❤️❤️❤️

[chaza.]

This broke me.... this is what every dad's goal in life, have your kids being proud of you like that. Good luck Kamala, good luck coach! Let's win this here

Gus Walz is the kind of young man we need more of in this world. True heart, and true love for his family. I adore this guy now😁

[EastCoastGee]

The most exciting moment for me was when his son Gus stood up and pointed proudly saying THAT'S MY DAD!!! I FELT THAT! God Bless You Walz Family!! You gave me hope

[JustinHughes-ntfl]

That was so beautiful! Politics aside. I'm a father of a beautiful young lady inside and out with NVLD, ADHD and anxiety disorder. Gus had me at "That's my Dad." I looked up about Gus and was not aware in the moment that he had NVLD I just knew it was a beautiful gesture. FOLKS WITH NVLD I CAN TELL YOU LOVE DEEP and are very bright. Things might go over their head at times. They catch things that go over ours and appreciate every MOMENT in life. I might not align on politics but human interest most definitely. How could you NOT. God bless us ALL and Gus along with the family. Time to come together as a nation as I'm sure Gus would love and I know our Olivia would.

[rohinikumar]

We're proud of your dad too Gus! And all the more because he seems like such a good dad!

[fighterck]

I want a son who looks up to me like that. I miss my dad😢

[noelnelson]

This is how you know Tim's a great dad.
