TIM Walz is drawing comparisons to President Joe Biden after viewers noticed frequent pauses and confused looks from the Democratic candidate at the first vice presidential debate.
Kamala Harris’ running mate stopped in the middle of his sentence multiple times at the debate on Tuesday night, prompting worries about his age to grow.
Americans shared concerns for Walz while he faced off against Donald Trump’s running mate JD Vance on the debate floor in New York City.
“Is Walz just Biden Jr?” one X user asked.
“Is it me or does Walz have a glimmer of the same dazed looks Biden gave Trump?” another wrote.
“Why does walz keep pausing it’s so jarring and reminds me of biden?” another shared.
“Cmon coach put some pep in your step!!”
Walz is 60 years old – 21 years younger than Biden, who stepped down from the race in July.
This isn’t the first time that Walz’s age has been in conversation as people have often pointed out that the dad-of-two looks older than his age.
Earlier this year, a social media post shared shock that Harris and Walz are the same age, highlighting the fact that Walz has lost his hair while Harris hasn’t started to gray.
Walz, a former high school teacher, responded to the post with a joke implying that he looks aged because he “supervised the lunchroom for 20 years.”
“You do not leave that job with a full head of hair. Trust me,” he wrote.
Walz faced the age concern with lighthearted humor just months ago – but now, the issue is worrying viewers as they noticed the VP-hopeful appeared to look uncomfortable on the debate stage.
“Tim Walz looks nervous. I mean, makes sense. But still,” one viewer noted at the beginning of the face-off.
“Walz get it together we can tell you are nervous,” another warned.
