A Democratic VP pick and the current Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz, is affectionately rebranded as America’s Dad. Think of every dad stereotype you know: the terrible jokes, the heartfelt encouragement sessions, the awkwardness every once in a while – now throw in a dash of courtesy and a whole heap of general good nature. That’s Tim Walz, and the internet has had a ball with it.
Walz was already beloved as a political dad for his sweet, shouty endorsements of his children at the Democratic National Convention, but then Gus got emotional during his dad’s speech, and there was no going back. Since then, the memes have continued to pour in, putting Walz as everyone’s favorite dad who would come to soccer games, tell you to wear a jacket because it is cold, and definitely call to see how you were doing.
