Tim Walz’s estranged brother, Jeff Walz, recently made headlines with a series of sharp Facebook comments condemning his younger brother’s political views, as reported by Style by SCMP.

Jeff, 67, did not mince words when it came to his opposition to Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and the liberal ideology he supports. “I’m 100% opposed to all his ideology,” Jeff bluntly stated in a post dated August 30, in response to rumors of Tim potentially becoming Kamala Harris’ running mate.

Initially, Jeff hinted at the possibility of endorsing Donald Trump, saying “I’ve thought long and hard about doing something like that! I’m torn between that and just keeping my family out of it,” in response to a Facebook user encouraging him to join Trump on stage.

However, Jeff has since taken the leap, officially endorsing Trump on X (formerly Twitter). His public endorsement solidifies his conservative stance, aligning him fully with Trump’s vision for the country.

Jeff’s critique of his brother didn’t stop at ideology. “The stories I could tell. Not the type of character you want making decisions about your future,” he added, suggesting that his concerns are not only political but deeply personal as well.

Their strained relationship has been apparent for years, as Jeff revealed they haven’t spoken in over eight years. To add fuel to the fire, Jeff claimed his family wasn’t even notified when Tim was picked as a potential running mate for Harris.

Jeff’s political leanings stand in sharp contrast to his brother’s, but he has built a notable background of his own. As an assistant principal in Florida, Jeff honed leadership skills while shaping young minds. His commitment to traditional values and community-building closely aligns with his beliefs.

Jeff’s conservative roots have been clear for years, including his financial support for Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign. His endorsement of Trump reflects his conviction that America needs strong, decisive leadership to challenge the political status quo.

He hasn’t been shy about expressing disillusionment with the current political landscape. On the day Trump was indicted, Jeff voiced his frustration on Facebook, declaring, “We’ve just become a third world banana republic.”

For Jeff, this reflected a deeper issue of political overreach and the decline of American values under progressive leadership.

Jeff’s recent endorsement of Trump solidifies his belief that bold leadership is needed to restore the country’s direction. Despite his outspoken nature, Jeff leads a quiet life in Freeport, Florida, where he enjoys hobbies like fishing and visiting Disney World with his wife, Laurie. His Facebook posts offer glimpses of family memories and his beloved dogs.
