Tim Walz’s older brother is ‘100% opposed to all his ideology,’ believes VP hopeful is not ‘type of character’ who should make decisions about US’ future.
Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz is not the “type of character” who should make decisions about America’s future, his older brother warned in a series of damning Facebook comments this week.
“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.
“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.
Jeff Walz’s feelings about his younger brother came to light after conservative activist Laura Loomer discovered a Facebook post he wrote on March 30, 2023 — the day Trump was indicted by a Manhattan grand jury over hush money payments made to porn star Stormy Daniels.
“We’ve just become a third world banana republic,” he wrote in a post that has now gained 518 likes.
The registered Republican donated $20 to Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, Federal Election Commission records show. There were no recorded donations to his brother during Tim Walz’ years in the House of Representatives.
Jeff Walz told The Post Saturday: “I am not doing interviews.”
Little has been reported about the married dad who lives on the Florida panhandle in Freeport with his wife Laurie.
