During an appearance on CNN Thursday afternoon, pundit Ana Navarro blasted the Republican personalities who are making fun of Tim Walz's son Gus.
One of the most memorable moments of Walz's speech last night was when his 17-year-old son Gus was shown beaming with pride and tears, saying, "That's my Dad." While most of America was charmed by the moment, some MAGA world figures were quick to mock the Minnesota Governor's son, who has a learning disability.
Navarro told the CNN panel:
"Just before coming here, I was at brunch with Gwen Walz, the wife of Tim Walz, the vice presidential nominee. And you could see the emotion she has of the attacks that are going on against her teen son, who’s got special needs. There are many Republicans, many Trump Republicans out on social media taking horrible attacks on a kid who had a beautiful moment of authentic pride and love for his father yesterday and got emotional."
The former GOP strategist continued by saying, "And the Republican Party cannot call itself the party of family values and the party of Christian values if they think it’s ok to such viciously attack a 17-year-old kid with special needs. That is cruel. It is inhumane. It is disgusting. It is un-American. And it is unacceptable."
