Democratic Rep. Mark DeSaulnier told an 11-year-old girl at a middle school in California Wednesday that President Donald Trump is more dangerous than a terrorist.
While speaking at a town hall at Stanley Middle School in Lafayette, Calif., DeSaulnier moved to the Q&A portion of the event after his talk and answered the final question from Eden, an 11-year-old girl, with a bang, East Bay Times reported Saturday.
“From the mouths of babes,” DeSaulnier said. “I think you should be concerned. This is dangerous stuff. I’ve said a few times, the most dangerous person in America isn’t a terrorist, it’s the person who’s president of the United States. So Eden, you’ve got to read, you have to be thoughtful, and you have to be engaged.”
A member of DeSaulnier’s staff had read Eden’s question out loud to the audience, as she couldn’t personally be there to attend because of her bedtime.
“My name is Eden, and I’m 11 years old,” the staff member had said, reading the question card. “My mom is worried about my future with President Trump. On election night, my mom cried. Kids at my school are worrying about being deported. I’ve read and heard awful things about him. Should I be worried about my future? As a kid, what can I do about it?”
After delivering his answer about how Trump is more dangerous than a terrorist, DeSaulnier continued by saying American democracy is the “epitome of human evolution.”
“If we don’t participate for ourselves, but more importantly if we don’t participate for Eden and for future generations … People died for this,” DeSaulnier said. “People have come from all over the world — I’m getting a little emotional — for this. American democracy is not some trite thing. It’s the epitome of human evolution in my view.”
East Bay Times caught up a week later with Eden and her mother, Alissa Levy, for a brief comment.
“Since I was a baby, I’ve done everything in politics with my mom,” Eden said.
Eden has protested Trump at her school and volunteers at her local temple.
Also at the event, DeSaulnier said that Trump should remove Stephen Bannon as his chief strategist, end the “Muslim travel ban” and release his tax returns.
BRAINWASHING and CHILD ABUSE !
This idiot should be kicked out of congress.
Yes, he is!
Again, another elected nitwit, representing liberal nitwits, who all do not realize that this is not a “Democracy”!
Unbelievable. Vote this guy out the next time he is up for re-election.
An astroturf movement of outraged people would demand his resignation if he were a Republican talking about a Democrat.
Too bad nobody has Soros’ resources to throw around in situations like this.
The sickness of the RATS. And it always rears its perverted head when either kids are involved, schools are involved or the perp is not there.
Funny how that works, ain’t it ???
District is right between San FranSicko and Brentwood.
Figures.
.
Congress got a lot more stark raving nut cases when California closed most of its mental hospitals
Satanic Democrats are so sick with liberalism that they can’t tell right from wrong. Like muslim animals they are liars.
Trump is more of a threat to their perverted, sadistic way of thinking that a terrorist ever will be.
In California, is is easy enough to put out that opinion, and be almost certain that NO consequences will ensue. California is already very hostile territory for Donald Trump, and very likely, also for just about anybody that claims to be a Republican.
Republicans in California are in just about the same position that the Jewish citizens of Germany were in 1933. Not yet being rounded up, but subject to growing threats and cowardly attacks from behind a screen of mobs and a growing mindset that there is “no place” for the disagreement with the Anointed Ones. More and more restrictive conditions are set down, making life difficult for the ones who do not want to play the charades that must be acted out before “permission” is granted, usually only after the payment of exorbitant fees, sometimes made up on the spot.
The roundups will begin within the next five years. But certain classes will be automatically excluded from this forcible detention.
Just to make it “fair”, doncha know.
What a terrible thing to do to a little girl—causing her to fear the President of the United States for his own twisted ideology.
I hope the child’s parents get involved. I hope they’re not crazy, too.
“Eden has protested Trump at her school and volunteers at her local temple.”
Wonder what “temple” that would be...
Ha! Braq WAS a cultural terrorist.
Filthy leftist scum.
