Identical Twins in Indiana Stand on Opposite Ends of the Political Divide
Nick Roberts and his identical twin brother Nathan Roberts, both from Indianapolis, Indiana, have gained viral attention for their starkly opposing political views. Nick is an elected Democratic politician and a member of the Indianapolis city council, while Nathan is a Republican supporter of Donald Trump who leads Save Heritage Indiana, an organization opposing illegal immigration.
The twins' contrasting political stances have been evident since high school, when Nick criticized Trump in the campus newspaper and Nathan supported him. The divide became widely known online after Nick posted a video to clarify that if someone looking like him attends Republican events or wears a MAGA hats, it is Nathan, not him. This video attracted hundreds of thousands of views, with some viewers humorously referring to Nathan as the "evil twin."
Despite their differences, both brothers emphasize civility in political discussions. Nathan acknowledges that Nick provides new perspectives, and they strive to engage in honest dialogue to effect positive change. Their story unfolds amid ongoing debates in Indiana regarding the redrawing of congressional district boundaries for the 2026 midterm elections. Nick has reported receiving bomb threats and a swatting attempt in November, though their family has remained safe.
