There seems to be a little bit of a family rift in the Walz family. Jeff Walz, the older brother of Democratic vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz has apparently said he is “100% opposed” to his ideology and might even endorse former President Trump.
NY Post reported on the Facebook posts by Jeff:
“I’m 100% opposed to all his ideology,” Jeff Walz declared Friday evening about the far-left Minnesota governor and running mate of Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris.And he has so little faith in his kid brother, Jeff Walz is now considering publicly endorsing former President Trump’s White House run, he told a Facebook poster who urged him to “Get on stage with President Trump and endorse him.”“I’ve thought long and hard about doing something like that! I’m torn between that and just keeping my family out of it,” the 67-year-old Floridian wrote in a response which notched 449 likes.“The stories I could tell. Not the type of character you want making decisions about your future,” he added.Besides Jeff, Tim Walz, 60, has a sister, Sandy Dietrich, 63, who lives in Nebraska, where the Walz clan grew up. Another brother, Craig Walz, 44, died when a tree fell on him during a storm which ripped through a Minnesota campsite in 2016.Jeff and Tim Walz haven’t spoken in eight years, Jeff Walz wrote.And the governor — who has fudged details of his military career and who delayed calling the National Guard even as his state burned during the George Floyd riots — didn’t bother to let his older brother know that he was picked as Harris’ running mate.“My family wasn’t given any notice that he was selected,” Jeff Walz wrote.
We have not verified the authenticity of these posts, and Tim Walz has not commented on them yet. However, the brother of Democratic vice-presidential candidate endorsing Trump would not be the craziest thing to happen in this election.
