Democrats might be surprised to learn some members of Tim Walz‘s family are riding the Trump Train — but the VP candidate’s mother says it’s not a big deal because they’re the conservative wing of the clan.
Walz’s Nebraska-based family members are firmly behind Republican Presidential nominee Donald Trump, which is highlighted by a photo posted to X showing them wearing MAGA shirts.
Charles W. Herbster — a conservative who has run two unsuccessful campaigns for governor in Nebraska — posted the pic to the social media platform that features eight people wearing “Nebraska Walz’s for Trump” shirts.
Darlene Rose, mother of the VP candidate, told TMZ … although the picture is legit, she’s not shocked by what she saw in the image from that side of the family.
According to Mama Walz … the fam in the pro-Trump picture are second cousins to Tim … and they are conservative, devout Catholics … so, again, not shocking.
That said … Darlene tells us she was not too irritated by what she viewed as a stunt … she still has full confidence in the Harris/Walz ticket.
Still, the photo’s blowing up on right-wing social media pages right now … with some people pointing to it as proof TW doesn’t deserve to be the VP — ’cause he can’t even get his own fam to back him.
Like we said, there’s some distance between these family members and Walz … but, they aren’t the only family members publicly blasting Walz — with Tim’s bro Jeff telling his Facebook friends last week not to vote for Walz.
ICYMI … Jeff clarified his political position — saying it doesn’t align with Tim’s own, and adding “The stories I could tell. Not the type of character you want making decisions about your future.”
Jeff made it clear he and Tim haven’t spoken in nearly a decade … and, it doesn’t sound like the frostiness is ending anytime soon.
Tim may check the box next to his own name on Election Day … but, sounds like at least a few Walz family members are going in the other direction.
