Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz embodies everything liberal women see in their own fathers – except for their political views. For some, it makes them hopeful but also very sad.
He’s got jokes, enthusiasm and a smiley face that’s not even remotely trying to hide how he’s feeling. He’s Tim Walz- and he’s bringing major Midwestern dad energy to the Democratic ticket.
At least that’s how many white women feel when they see Walz in videos, riding the Slingshot at the state fair with his daughter, signing legislation to give kids in Minnesota free lunches or tweeting about his pet cat.
It’s in stark contrast to what some see in their own fathers - who often have more conservative political views.
“He is silly. My dad used to be very, very silly and goofy,” Pamela Wurst Vetrini, a woman who recently compared Walz to her father, said in a viral TikTok video.
…
“A lot of us had moderate to conservative, educated, sensible fathers that we lost to Rush Limbaugh. That we lost to Fox News. That we lost to Donald Trump. And the cult of conservatism that has grown and grown and grown has driven a wedge between millennial woman and her father,” she said.
Goofy dad calling in the national guard on BLM protestors. Silly goose!
Lol yeah dismiss facts because you didnt like the instance I have a second account on.
also lol keep lapping up the dem propaganda unquestioningly
Hexbear hypocrite hating on some guy who provides tampons to trans people.
I don’t like the instance you’re on because it’s full of assholes and you’re not exactly making it easy for me to change that opinion.
He waited to verify that there was a rioter and looter problem before calling them in. Explicitly so he wasn’t calling them in on mere protesters, but looters who deserve it.
If you actually listen to his recounting of the situation… Yeah, actually. I would say that the way he handled that was absolutely the way a (good) dad would.
Including the bit afterwards where they tell you they were wrong for the initial overreaction, but they did it out of fear for your safety.
But after actually listening to why you’re mad, you talk it out and guess what? He recognizes that your anger is valid and opened a dialogue to help fix those problems.
If that’s not “great dad” energy, then I dunno what is.
But let’s not let actual facts get in the way of you pretending to be a progressive on the internet to make leftists look bad.
Got any links because the search engines are cluttered with articles fact checking trump who keeps wanting to take credit for calling in the national guard.
edit:
If you actually listen to his recounting of the situation
How can I if I only get downvoted with no replies? I’m not even arguing here just asking what it is that I haven’t seen.
Here’s a neutral account: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Floyd_protests_in_Minneapolis–Saint_Paul
the police state violently crushing dissent is actually good when it’s done by someone who reminds me of my dad!
two comments below yours:
he made sure only those who deserved it got abducted from the streets
sometimes daddy needs to put his foot down and disappear people I guess?
