I need to see the oranges of this meme.

Pretty terrible. I have a 6 year old and 9 year old who want to say they hate Trump ....when asked why - because all the kids at school say that. First time I heard them voice an opinion I asked them what Trump's economic policy was. . . what his record on unemployment was ... what his foreign policy was ... Of course each time the answer was "I don't know" .... to which I advised until they knew some of what they were talking about when it came to politics, and could answer or debate on some substance, do not follow the crowd. We have pro Trump friends and their kids are "pro Trump" .... what are you going to do? Upset them or have a fight because you think you don't like POTUS and someone else does?

SMH - sure, I bet plenty think this is harmless fun. They might feel differently if a 8 ear old kid was doing skits about what a corrupt, lying buffoon Trump is.

Child abuse!... making that child act stupid for the GOPers to giggle about. I'd lay odds that AOC is much smarter than you and would handle you in a debate on anything political without looking away from her phone.

Or how he looks at girls their age on the escalator and says he'll be dating them in a few years... smh. I can see why they line their kids up to worship the Alt-Right.

AOC is a FRIGGIN idiot! Back on iggy for you...

That’s the GOPer spirt. Hating on strong powerful women. Bless your heart. Your mother sould be so proud.

They wouldn’t feel any differently, but would still slam the kid and parents into oblivion. I mean come on...they called the Obama family monkeys in the WH.

Who did? Is that something a Lib made up?

It's odd how the side that elects and idiot as their president acts like it's terrible to elect an idiot to congress. Stupid is as stupid does.

j/c:

I don't want to comment too much on the Political forums because my views aren't very well received, but I am appalled by the video of the little girl who impersonated AOC.

Everyone is entitled to their own political views, but teaching your children to mock others who are different from you is very disturbing. The girl was a pretty good actor and intelligent, but it was obvious she was reading the script and was coached on body language. That's really scary to think about.

My parents encouraged my brother and I to educate ourselves about politics, but never tried to influence us. My brother was very conservative while I was more liberal. Likewise, my wife and I raised our children to search for the truth and not allow bias to influence their opinions. One is liberal and the other is more moderate.

I think teaching your children to believe in disliking and belittling another side is wrong. I feel sorry for that little girl.

Trump has normalized mockery and bullying. If you are on the right you are either good with that or turn a blind eye to it. Some people look at what they did with this child as good fun. I think people like you or me who let their kids make up their own minds as adults on things like politics and religion are the exception not the rule on both sides.

Tribalism.

as stuperbrown likes is own post.

I agree. Children shouldn't be used as a weapon in an adults political arsenal.

Yeah I am always disgusted when people clearly train children on their stupid political opinions. I remember the "F" video that feminists coached their children to basically be obnoxious. Google "Potty mouthed princess video" if you've never seen it. Disgusting.

That video was horrible. Had never seen it. They took a good message and made filth with it by using those little girls that way.

I agree with you. I find no humor or value in people using young kids as props to make a political statement when the child almost certainly doesn't understand what they are standing up for (or against)...

AOC has done nothing to lead me to believe that she is all that intelligent.. winning a district where a glass of water could be elected if it had a D beside it isn't all that impressive... and I've heard some of her gaffes in speaking which she has blamed on youth and inexperience.. I don't think she's stupid but I'm not sold yet on her being of above average intelligence..

at this point, there's no doubt in my mind that the dudes trashing AOC are the same kind of guys who whine about women not being into them because they are "nice guys".

bunch of beta males needing to trash AOC with typical woman jokes because they lack self esteem themselves.

oh well, i cant empathize because i have no idea what being a ugly low self esteem man feels like.

You're a funny guy. Sounds like you are trying to label anyone who has enough common sense to see she isn't the smartest knife in the drawer.

Unlike some, I'm happy to point out stupidity on both sides of the political aisle without trying to make it sound like there's something wrong with people who have a firm grasp of the obvious.

you're an even funnier guy, as i've stated before her green new deal was trash and she's trying too hard to be like Trump.

kick rocks.

So you said one thing before and now something completely different. Well alrighty then.

fake news. i can dislike her policies, and still not like it when people are clearly attacking her because she's a woman, amongst many things. the level on insecurity amongst these dudes would make jordan peterson proud.

these dudes aint making stupid jokes about Trump, though. and its pretty clear why.

again, if you have a problem, put me on ignore, block me on FB, and stop responding to me on DT. the more you and i interact, the more its clear we have little in common.

Objectivity may be the biggest obstacle. I don't block people who disagree with me. I leave that up to the thin skinned to do.

Trump is the classic high school bully who uses his wealth and fame to create bluster and bravado in order to mask some very serious insecurities.. I thought everybody knew that.

apparently not. there's atleast 60 mill people in this country who certainly dont see it that way.

Not 60 million. I know people who voted for him and still support despite believe that about his character.

Do you feel that way when it comes to gun control?
And did you say that when the kids in FL were used as props?

Or when Obama had them all up on stage.

You didn't ask me, but Pit responded to my post about my disdain for using kids to make a political point........so, I will answer.

I don't care which way you lean, brainwashing your children to believe the same way you do about political or ideological issues is wrong.

This video was used as a joke. Where is the Left's sense of humor?

Can you brainwash your kids to be Browns fans?

No. While my daughter is a Brown's fan, my son is a Steelers' fan, as is his mother.

The rightful goal of a parent is to introduce your children to as much information as you can and encourage them to have an open mind and then trust them to make up their own minds on these issues.

Coaching your children to hate certain groups due to bias is a detriment to your children and limits their growth and their productivity as citizens.

Ok, but if you introduced your kids to as much information as possible, how could they be Steeler fans?

You better give your son a DNA test. :o)

Watch your mouth, little man

You. better buy a lot of tissues for him this year.
