Tim Walz And His Kids Had A Hilariously Relatable Moment At The DNC—And We Love To See It

While the Minnesota Governor was speaking to MSNBC at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on Monday, his son and daughter, Gus and Hope, couldn't help but give him bunny ears.

Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate Tim Walz and his children had a rather cute and relatable moment during the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on Monday night.

Seated with his family members—including his wife, Gwen, and his son and daughter, Gus and Hope—during a brief interview with MSNBC, Walz described the experience of being Harris' VP pick as a "privilege" and "an honor."


It was during this moment that Gus and Hope held up bunny-ear fingers behind his head.

You can watch the moment in the video below.

Walz was clearly amused by the moment, later sharing the clip to X, formerly Twitter, and writing:

"My kids keep me humble."

You can see his post below.

People loved the hilariously relatable moment and appreciated Walz's response.


Walz is responsible for a new angle of attack against Republicans, referring to them as "weird people on the other side" while referencing their nationwide assaults on public education, saying they "want to take books away" and "want to be in your exam room."

To that end, he and Harris have done the opposite by portraying themselves as normal as can be, prompting MSNBC to note that the duo "are charting new territory in normcore."

The outlet observed that "some of the videos capturing Harris and Walz’s campaign activities have a conspicuously casual tone, showing Harris petting dogs and campaigning once again in Converse Chuck Taylors. Additionally, Walz is described as "a normcore warrior on the campaign trail, slamming Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance for faking kinship with the working class he scorns using references to food."

The campaign runs counter to the populist themes embraced by former President Donald Trump, who has insisted he is "entitled to personal attacks" against Harris, coming under fire for casting doubt on her racial heritage, and suggesting that a vote for her is a vote for higher crime rates.

But Trump's attacks appear to be backfiring, per recent surveys from the Washington Post/ABC News/Ipsos and CBS News/YouGov that show Harris holding at least a 3% lead over Trump nationwide.

Stephen Colbert Rips CBS For Banning Interview With Texas Democrat Due To FCC Threat

Late-night host Stephen Colbert criticized CBS for attempting to ban him from interviewing Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, and from even mentioning the interview on air, due to threats from Brendan Carr, the chair of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).

Talarico, who represents Texas in the state House, has previously made headlines for calling out Texas Republicans for "trying to force public schools" to display the Ten Commandments and has generated significant buzz as a forceful voice for Democrats in a state largely in the hands of the GOP.

'Wall Street Journal' Ripped After Saying Millennials And Gen Zers Are 'Splurging' On 'Rotisserie Chickens' Instead Of Buying Homes

It's sadly all too common for older generations to look down on millennials and criticize their constant complaining about how "hard" life is and how they can't afford to be homeowners.

That criticism almost always ignores factors like the rising cost of housing, increasingly low salaries, and a continuous housing shortage.

Trump Roasted After Making Bonkers Comparison Between Gas Prices In Iowa And California

President Donald Trump was widely mocked for making a nonsensical comparison between gas prices in Iowa versus California during a ceremony at the White House in which he was given an award for being the "undisputed champion of beautiful clean coal."

Trump's recognition reportedly came from the Washington Coal Club, a pro-coal advocacy organization with financial links to the sector. The award was presented by James Grech, chief executive of Peabody Energy, the nation’s largest coal producer. The bronze trophy depicts a miner equipped with a headlamp and pickaxe.
