Vice presidential candidate and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz made his TikTok debut on Friday, building on the success of his running mate's social media momentum.
The big picture: Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign has swiftly embraced TikTok and social media meme culture, building an in-on-the-joke repertoire with a younger generation as the election nears.
- Walz, who has had some viral moments since joining the ticket — think "everyone's Midwestern dad" content and dog photos — is now jumping onto the platform, too.
Zoom in: The 60-year-old appeared in his first video Friday alongside his dog, Scout, in what he labeled a "TimTok."
