A Democratic city councilor from Indianapolis has warned constituents not to mistake him for his MAGA-supporting twin brother, who has also entered politics as a Republican. In a video message posted to X, Councilman Nick Roberts, 25, said he wanted to address a situation that has caused “a lot of confusion.” “So, my identical brother Nate has recently decided to get involved in Republican politics. And yes, I promise this is real and not a joke. While this might seem ridiculous for a lot of reasons, it’s been very confusing because we look similar, because he’s a Republican, because a lot of people didn’t know I was a twin in the first place,” he said. Calling the political divide “something we’ve had to deal with,” he told followers that if they “see someone who looks like me at a Republican event, or definitely if they’re wearing a MAGA hat, it is not me, it is him.” His brother Nathan Roberts, co-founder of anti-immigration group Save Heritage Indiana, has not commented on the video, but he was spotted speaking in support of Republicans’ redistricting plans at a state elections committee hearing earlier this month.
