But internet is having a hard time believing Walz is just 60…
Some people thought Walz might be too old for the job, but a lot of others pointed out he's just a year older than Kamala Harris. The internet soon buzzed with excitement when comparisons were drawn between Walz and two of Hollywood’s most fit action stars, who are both over 60 but still dominating the action genre and raking in big bucks.
"Still wrapping my mind around the fact that Brad Pitt is older than Tim Walz," a person commented on X (formerly Twitter). “He fought in a war and taught kids. That will age you,” another person defended his mature appearance. “I mean, he's just Country 60, he’s got Bubba Energy, which is NOT a bad thing. We kinda need Bubba Energy on the ticket,” a third person commented. Soon, "He's Minnesota 60" became a top trend of the day.
