Problems with last thread so starting again here.  In today's Boston Globe, cartoonist Ward Sutton has outdone himself with this one: https://www.bostonglobe.com/2020/09/11/opinion/grave-consequences/

Yes 100% agreed.... I shared that one widely... tried to share it here earlier but was having troubles with posting. No matter... it is out there and it is succinct. More importantly.. its Truth.

I was wondering if anybody else has noticed trump isn't standing as straight as he was when he met Little Kim? What could that mean?

We briefly talked about the young ones who cannot vote, but upped Trump through TikTok. I strongly believe that they will do their thing online and will continue to do so. This can be more influential than any of us think.

 

I found this clip on Youtube where two young people have Kevin McHale from Glee fame on in a game. They compare Trump and Glee's Sue. Although a typical game in Tweener fashion I think it show that these kids *are* very engaged in what is going on. They love Bernie, they love AOC, the kids from the Parkland shooting are also still going strong and they *hate* Trump and everything he stands for. This is a light generation with only a few dark spots.

This is very true. Politics has permeated the culture so much that I caught my 8 year old leading a politics discussion in her zoom class today. Granted the main topic was "Trump sucks" but still I've never seen a 3rd grader even care about anyone in the WH before, nonetheless have an opinion.

this is the little girl who, at 2, would get put in timeout and watch the clock. When her time was up, before I could say anything, she would go "am I done yet?" She seriously learned how to tell time by getting in trouble and then had the mouth to check me on top of it. 

Last week, she interrupted her class zoom by saying "I've gotta go stop my brothers from getting hurt because my dad HAD to poop instead of watching the twins"
