Walz presents an alternate version of masculinity in American politics, Steele said, while also reaching out to voters who don’t align with Trump and Vance’s version of gender presentation.
“What Walz offers is probably the more traditionally and actually appropriate view of what a ‘real man’ is. He’s a father, he’s a coach, he’s at times a disciplinarian, he’s the guy who’s going to help you fix your car,” Steele said, adding: “I think he’s a phenomenal role model.”
