Chelsea Clinton Stands Up For Barron Trump, But There’s A Problem

Donald Trump hasn’t even been president for a week and it is already becoming clear that the left isn’t going to hesitate to criticize him every way possible. Apparently, that includes mocking his family and young son.

During the inauguration, many on the left criticized Trump’s 10-year-old son Barron for his facial expressions and one liberal writer even labeled him as a future school shooter.

Chelsea Clinton recently weighed in on the criticism of Barron Trump and defended him.

Kind of…

From The Daily Caller:

Chelsea Clinton said that Barron Trump, President Donald Trump’s 10-year-old son, should be given the opportunity to live a normal life, but made sure to to take a jab at his father at the same time.

She used both Twitter and Facebook to explain that for Barron to be an ordinary kid, people must also oppose “POTUS polices that hurt kids.”

Clinton just couldn’t help herself and used a Donald Trump attack to “defend” Barron.

Trump’s policies hurt children? That’s a new one.

Very “bold” of Chelsea to defend Barron’s right to be a kid. As if that was ever in doubt.

It appears a simple repudiation of vile attacks on a 10-year-old without the infusion of politics is too much to ask for.

She and her momma and supposed-to-be daddy had best be having ‘thoughts’ about how to keep they a$$ out of jail.

Sessions WILL get confirmed and the Holder/Lynch Racism-Corruption Cabal will end, and they will be investigated like they should have been.

I remember when people pointed out that Chelsea looks like the old version of Eleanor Roosevelt, those on the left went ballistic, and said kids should be left alone. I guess that only goes for kids of democrats, because I also remember them going after Palin’s kids.

Chelsea sees herself as taking the progressive torch from her mother. After all, she’s seen how those campaign funds roll in.

I remember, back in the early 1990s, Saturday Night Live did a sketch where they said that Chelsea (then about 13 or 14 years old) was ugly. It was disgusting and I remember feeling sympathy for her because other people were saying the same thing and it didn’t seem fair to attack a 13 year old girl. So for a while, I had sympathy for her and thought that she should be left alone. But then, at some point in her 20s, she turned into her parents — corrupt, greedy, entitled, getting a $600K per year job at NBC to do nothing based on her parents’ connections. Then she started working for the Clinton Foundation and the stories came out (leaked by foundation employees) about how arrogant and entitled she was. Then she started campaigning for her mother. At this point, she’s almost as bad as her parents and is fair game. Unless and until Barron Trump goes through this same transformation, he’s off limits.

I give her credit for publicly defending Barron Trump.

She was right on that one.

And that’s ALL I give her credit for.

I guess it has never occurred to Chelsea to show any regret or revulsion regarding the 59,000,000 American children who have been murdered in their mother’s womb. Can there ever be a more egregious example of “turning a blind eye?”

The left also went after the Bush daughters until they discovered the twins were raging liberals.

Republican kids are always a target of the left. Just look at how Rosie O’Donut attacked Barron.

And the GWBush daughters weren’t off limits. I remember a Leftist friend saying ‘we know Chelsea’s a good person’. I asked ‘how do we know that? The only info we get about Chelsea is from the news Media’. And now we all know that the news Media has been covering for Democrats for decades.

“Don’t do this to Barron BUT attack his father”

Always ignore everything before the BUT

I wonder what her ‘dad’ thinks about this?

Every time I see Barron Trump on TV I think “here is a kid that most likely has some autism” as I think back upon the thousands of hours I’ve spent in my life working with children with autism and children without autism. It really is posssible to help many of these special needs kids live very normal lives as the therapies/programs help them compensate for weaknesses in how their brains process things so they can well-function. With autism its as if the person is always intoxicated somehow due to some brain wiring issues and once rewired then the challenges can be overcome. The right combination of person, appropriate therapies, effort by their support network, and good luck can turn a hopeless case of a person needing lifelong institutionalization into someone who could be a future Fortune 500 CEO. That’s why one of the very best education investments that government can make is to get preschoolers with autism the appropriate therapies for them during their early development years as the return on investment is tremendous in saving taxpayers potentially millions per child over their lifetime as we turn a very likely institutionalization into a well-functioning taxpayer, not to mention the human side of the equation.

In his case I’m assuming that his dad has had plenty of financial resources put towards helping him. And one of the most important things in educating children with autism is ensuring that whatever transitions they make are done prudently and wisely. It’s no surprise to me at all that Melania Trump is making “stop bullying children” her agenda and that she/Barron aren’t coming to Washington DC yet as they put together a careful transition plan for him.

If he does have autism then as long as Barron Trump can get through childhood without bullying he’ll be just fine. Having your own Secret Service detail is probably one of the most effective ways to avoid bullying ;) And like I said above its very possible for people with autism to become Fortune 500 CEO’s and many other things in life if they get proper support to “learn how to fish” and have the opportunities.

About “having a Secret Service Detail” for Barron Trump I’m not suggesting this should be a common therapy choice for kids. In his case its so that nobody can try to coerce President Trump into making some decision through harming or threatening his son.

I think he’s an overgrown 10-year-old, clumsy like a teenager whose legs are unexpectedly too long too soon, and that Barron has more in common with his young nieces and nephews than with his older siblings. Has a contagious smile which should get him into trouble later on.

His mother and father will see that he gets the careful education and assistance that he will need as he ages.
