Tim Walz, the Governor of Minnesota and Vice Presidential candidate, has been affectionately dubbed "America's Dad" by many young social media users. This nickname stems from his warm, folksy demeanor and the nostalgic, fatherly energy he brings to the political scene. Many women on platforms like TikTok have expressed that Walz reminds them of the fathers they feel they've lost to political polarization. His approachable and friendly personality has resonated with those who miss the more moderate and sensible figures their fathers once were.

Don't we all?

I'd remind you that nothing you wrote is true, and you've been duped by the bots you're reading on Twitter and watching on TikTok, but I don't think you care.

No one considers Tim Walz to be moderate or sensible, nor are any women looking to him as a father figure. You're repeating what his billionaire backers have programmed you to repeat in hopes you can dupe others the way you've been duped.

Did Trump or Fox News tell you that?

[–] FilmBuff (7264) 4 months ago

I listen to neither, so no.

You just admitted to making up shit. Watch the Viral Video!

So unless someone listens to Fox News he's making up what he says? Okay, great!

Looks like he really is America's dad

Just because some idiot says "America's dad" on social media doesn't make it a fact!

Hi Tim. How’s the destruction of your state coming along?

Those are all very important traits for a VP to bring to a ticket.

Not my dad.

My dad actually served in a war zone during WWII. Managed to live through Typhoon Cobra and kamikaze attacks at Okinawa. He didn't have to lie about his service.

Walz is a phony asshole.
