Tonight at the DNC, following Joe Biden’s fiery address to delegates, Hillary Clinton’s VP nominee Tim Kaine took the stage to introduce himself to the nation. Unlike many career politicans, former Virginia governor and U.S. Senator has a reputation for yamming it up like a minivan-driving dad, delivering a speech that was high in goof factor. At times it felt like he was at a comedy open mic, so Twitter was quick to roast him with dad jokes about how much of a dork he came off.
The result was some comedy gold. Here are some of the best Tweets of the night about Tim Kaine’s overall dadness:
