Oct 13, 2024 12:31 PM IST Walz, Harris' running mate faces unverified allegations of inappropriate behavior with male students during his time as a professor and football coach. These allegations emerged on social media by a user, going by @DocNetyoutube could impact the Democratic campaign. The claims also mention Walz visiting a gay bar with the student, which allegedly led to a school board investigation. According to this source, Walz left his teaching position due to a scandal involving this male student. The X (Twitter) user issued a warning, further detailing the situation by writing. A social media post mentioned a reporter who recently observed tension between Walz and parents and students at a Mankato West High School football game. Walz's time at Mankato West (1996-2006) had alleged inappropriate behavior with male students. The post also alleged that Walz reportedly had a sexual relationship with another male student, earning him the nickname 'Touchdown Timmy,' and that he helped establish a support group for gay students in 1999 called the Gay-Straight Alliance (GSA). If any of these allegations prove to be true, it could spell trouble for the Democrats. The Harris campaign is yet to respond to these allegations. (Source: hindustantimes *)
