While I find the human shield arguments compelling, I figured he was just trying to virtue signal to the Republicans that he’s a good, old fashioned family man just like them. “Republicans love kids and family, right, so if I show off my kid at all times they’ll love me too, right? Please? Anyone? Please, love me.”
He’s too stupid to realize the right wing love of family is performative and they don’t actually give a shit about kids.
The first time I saw him with the kid, before the memes started, I literally said out loud to myself, “wtf is he using his kid as a human shield?” It was right after Super Mario Praxis dropped and that was my gut reaction.
It’s possible he wants to seem like dad of the year, but lots of politicians have wanted that, and they don’t do bring your kid to work day every day. Idk. Maybe it’s a dual-purpose thing, but my money is primarily on human shield

Yeah, the timing of him showing up with his kid suddenly is a bit too suspicious.
Probably a bit of that but the timing fits too perfectly with Luigi
