    My father passed away 16 years ago. If any of you out there who have loving fathers who is still alive, tell them you love them. I miss my dad everyday...
  • This pains me to see how such a pure and beautiful moment can turn into an attack on a young person, a teenager for that matter. What are we allowing ourselves to turn into? Much love Gus
  • @Bob-cx4ze
    Why is so much media dragging kids into this campaign? Leave the guy alone.
  • I cried with Gus because I know what it is to love and be loved by a good father. 23 years ago he left me in body but never in spirit 😔. I miss him! Thanks again Dad 😊😄 and Gus. Peace out ✌️.
  • That young man is amazing and to have a dad say to the world you are my whole world and I love you!! Wow!!!❤
  • @bobbi8681
    That boy made me cry last night ❤❤

    When Gus blurted thru tears “that’s my Dad” - he INSTANTLY became my ‘little brother’ - and don’t mess with family
  • @tbmcbr600
    You mean mother? You will never be a dad or a father.
  • A great look at how the "News" has become anything but. What I got from the "is something wrong with Gus" is he appears to be mentally slow. I'm obviously going on just appearance's with that statement so calm down. It's his mannerisms that made it pop into my head. Doesn't make him a bad person or something, just an observation and nothing more. Jeeze, why do I feel like I'm going to open Pandora's box by posting this. Guess I'll find out now. Drumroll please 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁😂

    For that kid and his sister, his dad is the biggest Rock Star , such a special moment
  • My dad loves tampons too. Actually we both share a restroom with my mother and we both use tampons when we leave the house. Vote Blue. Harris and Waltz 2024!💙
  • @jodober4847
    Eloquently stated. Mutual feelings by many. To the families of Harris and Walz, we say thank you as you inspire these leaders of the future.
  • @SamuelKoepke-r3o
    You sure as hell wouldn’t see any praise like that coming from Melania! Be proud of your Dad, Gus.
  • @JADPhipps-b9b
    (Gus Walz and Hope Walz) our Minnesota bright star🙏❤🇺🇸💙
  • @ruthsaunders9507
    Leave the poor kid alone. He's clearly doesn't have the faculties for this kind of attention.
  • @doughughes5732
    That's my Dad. What an amazing moment for the Walz family and the country. God bless them 👍🇺🇸🙏👩💙💪
