When is the MSM going to learn that the so-called Southern Poverty Law Center is not a go-to site for factual information, but a hate group?
The SPLC's listing of the Family Research Council on its "hate group" list almost got Tony Perkins + the staff of the FRC murdered.
Why is this clear? Because the attitude of the children, that they claim, is completely at variance with what American youth in any earlier age would have gotten from the election. Consider:
Donald Trump, as a total underdog, took on both the establishment in his own party and that in the present Administration, vowing to put America First. The whole genre of heroic images in America, past, have celebrated the brave loner, who took on the enemies, bullies--or whatever--of various threats; and triumphed over adversity; the adequate man or sometimes women, who stood "tall" as it were, in the face of almost insurmountable odds, and triumphed.
While I put this in an American context, it is the same concept as the historic legends in Europe of Horatio at the bridge; Roland & Oliver in the Pyrenees; or Braveheart, in Scotland, when he was still winning. Returning to America, it conjures up the spirit of the James Stewart character in "Mr. Smith Goes To Washington."
Trump emerges as a hero to all who recognize what was actually at stake--something of which, unfortunately, many public school teachers are completely ignorant.
Our public ed system needs to be taken down.

Sorry but in the real world losers don’t get Trophies:-) This was a good lesson for the Children to learn!

The Trump Effect: The Impact of The 2016 Presidential Election on Our Nation’s Schools
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3499606/posts
I have a special dark spot in my heart for adults who politicize children. Even - perhaps especially - if I agree with their politics.
Now their Future's So Bright they gotta wear shades!
Kids and politics should never mix. Let them be kids
Is it just possible all that anxiety is caused by those left wing kook teachers...? Me thinks YES!
My middle school daughter is conservative but been silent on it at school. Another girl “came out” pro-Trump before the election and was mercilessly harassed, threatened for it.
My son has been more outspoken on his beliefs, like when a kid showed up for Halloween as Trump and shouted “build a wall” to be scary and my son started a chant of “build a wall, build it tall”, which actually terrified the other kid when other children joined in.
After the election, there have been a few more kids admitting, yes, I’m conservative, but still bad harassment and domineering by liberals.
Political correctness is fascism in the name of feelings, by labeling other views and even whole categories of topics “impolite”, then saying society’s morality says you can’t say these things. It is reinforced by the iron fist of “if you utter hate speech, words equal violence, so I can hit you”, backed up by the liberal hate mobs blocking access to events, violence caught on video and documented via the Hillbullies hash tag and whitegirlbleedalot.com site.
So liberals are fascists with better branding of “love, peace and tolerance” instead of “strength, unity”.
If kids are traumatized its because of how their “parents” have reacted to the election.
My grandchildren were not traumatized by the election but they did provide us with entertainment.
My granddaughter, age 6 said we had to vote for Trump because if Hillary won we would be so poor she and her brother would have to ride horses to school (30 miles!) because we would not have cars and pickups. We have no idea where that came from but it was funny.
My grandson, age 5 had a classroom election where they had their own candidates that gave speeches and then they all voted. He voted for Trump, and when his teacher told him Trump was not there and he should vote for one of the children that ran for President he said Trump was going to win no matter who ran.
I guess the moral of the story is the election was not traumatic for children that supported Trump.
The gene pool sure has thinned out if this is true.
My 7 and 10 year old girls are ecstatic and doing better than ever in school
Kids traumatized by Trump according to the SPLC. Maybe snowflakes kids, but not Pro America kids...like ConservaTeen!!
