Yet they were singing songs to and about Obama in school as if he was a messiah.
Keep public school teachers away from children.
The bullies should be disciplined.
But did they teach you to read?
Recess is not inside the building.

Or are you VERY confused?
That’s the key Graybeard58, INISIDE the building. I remember kids wearing hats, but boys had to remove them when they went into the buildings.
Part of being a boy is wearing ball caps. It’s also part of being a boy to emulate his heros. My boy was either superman, or Dukes of hazard depending on his mood. For this kid, his hero is Trump and there’s not a darn thing wrong with that!
I remember boys in school wearing red socks baseball caps.
Grey Eye must have missed Their MEDS,
Kudos to the Kid,
With or without the Hat!
You are making a heck of an assumption that this isn’t this kid’s own “agenda.” I remembering arguing politics with my father when I was this kid’s age. I usually watched the news with my Dad frequently and was already interested in politics (it was an election year when I was 9). I didn’t not follow his beliefs blindly even then, though of course he was an influence on me, as were my teachers.
Kids deserve to act in the way that suits their personalities and preferences and not be limited by outside forces trying to get them to conform to their expectations for a child. I hated it when adults tried to do that to me as a kid. I remember my third grade teacher banning me from taking a book about the presidents with me to recess because she thought I should be playing, instead of reading. The only actual thing she accomplished was to make me resent her. I eventually smuggled it back out under my clothes.
At any rate, this has nothing to do with letting kids be kids. Only Trump hats were targeted for banning. I say bravo to this smart and determined kid. Frankly, I think there is too much of an egalitarian effort in this country to push the smart children down to the level of the slow ones. I applaud the ones who rise to the top anyway in this environment.
Am I the only one here who thinks it’s awesome and admirably down-to-earth that Trump allowed some random child in the rope line to touch his hair to see if it’s real?
So who was your big candidate in the 4th grade?
Some children are smarter and more mature than others.
Some people never get there, so they vote democrat.
Ah, that would give away my age, which I generally don’t like to do online (that is also true of certain other types of information). Let me just say that my Dad was considering voting for the Democratic nominee, and I was rooting for the Republican. I watched the debates and both conventions and a lot of the news coverage. I did not react well when he said that he might go Democrat that year, but he did eventually vote for the Republican. He was still transitioning a bit from being a Democrat in his youth to being a Republican in his more mature years.
But did they teach you to read?
He wore it to class 3 times smart ass..
The lefty teachers undoubtedly egged the other children on to confront the little hat-wearer.
Right. Either everyone is allowed to wear a hat, or no one is. Exception, of course for obscenities or outright incitement.
Oh...wait...to liberals any opposing viewpoint IS outright incitement!
Of course.
I didn’t want to get dragged off into the weeds on this.
Schools honestly should be about learning and having fun. Especially grade school.
Wearing Dad’s Trump hat is fine, just not at school.
In my 5th grade class, Ford beat Carter 15 to 8.
He came to my town in the 6th grade. (Ford)
A couple of students were properly excused to go to the speech and even met him.
