Gov. Tim Walz’s son, Gus, sat down for an interview with “CBS Mornings” to talk about his viral moment during the DNC acceptance speech by his dad.
In a few seconds, Gus captured the hearts of many at last year’s Democratic National Convention, but also drew cruel remarks from others who have no compassion for a young man who was diagnosed with a nonverbal learning disorder (NVLD), ADHD and an anxiety disorder in the sixth grade.
“It was super overwhelming because, to me, he’s just regular old dad,” Gus, 18, said in the interview below.
Gus discusses everything from his love of volleyball to misconceptions about his nonverbal learning disorder and his “promposal” to a girl from his school.
