Is this proof that my 3 yr old son is more politically savvy than most Americans?

So, I was watching the debate the other night while my kids were coloring in the room. The only words I spoke were something to this effect: "I never thought I'd say this, but maybe the Presidential Debates are not safe for kids."

About twenty minutes into the debate, while Hilary was going on about one thing or another, my son suddenly exclaimed "That lady is NOT right! She's not right! And that boy is not right either! Right mommy? All the people in the world are right but those guys are not right!"

I could barely contain myself. How could he possibly know?

Have a good night ATSers and wishing you the clarity of a small boy.

Right mommy?


Sounds like he's just trying to please you, paraphrasing something you've said no doubt.

'Can't fault the kid or the mother there would you?

That's doubtful. As I said, I was completely quiet throughout the debate other than the words I had previously spoken. I rarely speak about politics at home at all (not interested-- in fact if you check into the political forums you wont find my comments-- what is there to say?), and when I do, it's with my husband after the kids have gone to bed. Additionally, he'd have to somehow know that the talking heads on TV were Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump (the people he had overheard his mom talking about on a rare occasion?) Makes more sense to me that he reached that conclusion on his own.

Understands what? What the child says makes some sense.

You, as we all know, are in love with Trump.

LOL Yes I am for good reasons. But, he's 3...so you actually think he understand? Well, of course you do. It fits your agenda. Shocker...

Trump acts like he is 3.
Ohhhh, you mean the OP's child.

I meant the child made sense saying a lot of the things both said were wrong.

And you admit you are in love with Trump. That is the bizarre part of this.

I suspected. I was only joking when I typed it. But you comfirmed. Hmmm

I did not call you a child. I am not following you.

I mentioned a child who is actually a child. By all accounts, the child that comments on the girl and boy on tv is 3.

Of course, I was being a bit tongue-in-cheek.. does he know exactly what he's saying and the implications thereof? Of course not. But who knows what intuition prompted his response?

ETA: I am racking my brain to try to recall a time when a person prompted such a vehement outburst from my son (and on TV no less).. truly nothing comes to mind! Very strange to me. Funny in both senses of the word.

And you can't understand your own post. Well, I'm done on that note.

I understand my post. Besides the main idea of the thread, you admitted to being in love with Trump.

Ohh..she/he gets 2 stars for this? I don't call poeple children. So 2 people starred something that makes no sense.

No you aren't. I think you hate them equally. Logically, that would make your statement true though. fair.

Ksiezyc seems to have declared her/his love for Trump though. For real.
