Seriously- you are sad your child has the capacity to form his own opinions?

You should be proud. Or just start using ai to train a drone of your ideology.

I really think you should not have kids if you do want them to think for themselves.

Does he understand that he knows women that have had abortions? He may not know that he knows them, but he most certainly knows them. Is he really okay with them being as good as common murderers the minute they step over certain state borders?

Does he understand that he knows women that have been raped whether he personally knows this detail or not? Is he really okay with having a rapist in power over them?

If he's never been conned himself, he certainly knows people that have been conned. Is he okay with having a con artist sit in the highest office in the country?

Keep trying.

Honestly, he may know some men that have been raped as well, although that is not as common.

But a cis man can not get pregnant

The poster is talking about getting raped.

Yes? And we are talking about women getting raped and impregnanted by their rapists. Which leads to abortion and the question of access

No, the poster was talking about the experience of not only getting raped but then have to watch a rapist be put into the oval office. That is infuriatingly insulting enough without any pregnancies involved.

I agree with you. My statement is also true

Yes overturning Roe v. Wade is another enormous issue that requires us to teach our children exactly how screwed up that is and what they need to do to fight back.

7 states have constitutional amendment preserving abortion rights. These states include:
Montana
Nevada
Arizona
Colorado
Missouri
New York
Maryland

New York and Maryland is mostly redundant but the other states are significant.

Nebraska passed a constitutional amendment to restrict abortions in the 2nd and 3rd trimesters.

One by one, states are passing laws to protect abortion and at some point a federal law will be passed.

I think they will pass a federal law against aboetion in all 50 states. He has the power to do what he wants.

Yep. And OP’s son will be jeering “ your body my choice” in Mom’s basement wondering why he doesn’t have a girlfriend. But he sure had fun being a dick on Twitter and owning the libs.

Probably sad that after all that time, effort and expense the kid comes to stupid conclusions. I can imagine it’s disappointing.

Most men like Trump. It just means he has a Y chromosome.

Young people are misguided and ignorant because those of a certain age are too young to remember what a real POTUS with legitimate leader skills is. We haven't voted in a legitimate leader since 2012. Perhaps some of our youth's ignorance can fairly be blamed on their parents and/or other influential older people that got us into this mess.

Too ashamed to tell people we know in real life. Heartsick that we raised a child who is happy about Trump being elected. He says a big reason is campus DEI and wokeness, which he feels has gone too far. Anyone else in this situation? How are you handling it? Any advice?

Let your son go and be the man he’s meant to be and stop trying to control him. He’s not wrong btw but I know I’m not going to convince you otherwise- just as he won’t either. The fact that your embarrassed says more about you and your insecurities- give people more credit. I have friends and family on the left and right and we all manage to still love each other. I dot know why with the left it’s got to be such black and white thinking.

That's funny since in the US we just right and crazy right.

Don't take the bait. Focus on things you do agree on with your ds. Don't start confrontation, don't antagonize, a little gray rock if he starts to test you. He may/may not change politically but ultimately you didn't raise a kid to be exactly you and think exactly like you. Focus on the good and the commonalities.

Agree, young people need to focus on our political big picture. Many of them are. My 16 year old is wise enough to see that our political system under the rule of our current two major parties is in shambles. Our best and brightest are no longer entering the political arena due to being able to make more money in the private sector without having to sell their souls to mega donors and lobbyist.

All you have to do is Youtube the 1992 POTUS debates between Clinton and Bush (and Perot) or even the more recent 2012 debates between Obama and Romney and compare them to debates between Trump and Biden to see how far we've fallen in regard to quality of major party nominees. It is sad and sickening.

She would but her husband is cowering in her safe space where she consigned him when Harris lost the election.

Typical MAGA hate....you all don't like when democrats say anything but spew garbage all over the place. Keep America "great" with your treasonous rapist.

Treason, sure but he's not a rapist. He is a sexual abuser. The difference cost ABC $15 million dollars the other day.

Ivana accused him of rape. I'm sure he did rspe a lot of womem and got away with it.

This person's child is the exception to the norm. Most young people know that Trump and Biden have no business being POTUS.

No need for your hatred in America. Please leave us.

DP. Typical MAGA hate. Tells us to leave, then gets upset when we do. They can't live without owning the libs, they would be starved of oxygen without us.

No really. Get out. There are plenty of people that will take your place and support the country, no matter how ugly at times it got.
