    Default We need to stop lying to kids about Donald Trump

    We tell ourselves they're too young or we're protecting them, but this administration affects our children too

    You’d think telling kids the truth would be a reflex for the adults in this world. Then again, you’d think it would be a reflex to make sure all kids have food, clothing, and a place to call home. But no.

    Unlike food, clothing, and housing, the truth doesn’t cost a thing. Even so, we will tell kids they’re too young to learn where babies come from. We tell them that their dead pets have gone to the farm or crossed the rainbow bridge. And we tell ourselves that they’re too young to understand politics — or that the current political scene is too nasty for children to know about.

    When I told my mother I was writing a biography of Trump for young adults, she clasped her hands together and said, “Oh. There aren’t going to be swears in it, are there?”

    “Mom,” I said, “’Pussy’ is on the first page.”

    Cong-lover Ken betrayed US troops to the NVA and VC, according to my sources.

    Democrats going apeshit crazy over donald trump today will create a whole new generation of young republicans 20 years from now. Teenage rebellion is rather predictable like that.

    Very unlikely. If anything, they'll either become apolitical, or gravitate towards third/fourth/fifth parties.

    And his supporters can't even tell their children that nobody likes a bully.
