What socialism? Sounds like "teen son" has been indoctrinated and has no idea what capitalism, socialism, marxism or communism are.
So, by voting for Trump, your son is expressing his preference for fascism and an oligarchy.

Are you saying that felons shouldn't be able to run for political office?

Anonymous wrote:My oldest Gen Z (26) was home last weekend and went out to see two of his high school friends. One has just bought a brand-new home (IT professional, central VA). The other guy is a schoolteacher. Son says both of them claimed to be Independent in 2020 but did not vote. The election came up and they both promised my son that they are voting for Harris. The concerns they cited are the bullying of trans and gay people and Trump's record of bold face lying and the fact that he's a convicted felon. The teacher is already married, and the IT guy is engaged. My son voted a straight D ticket in Arlington last week. He was a Bernie Bro in 2016 but voted for Clinton. He said he has avoided talking politics with most of his back home friends. We live in a red county.

He says the same stupid MAGA points that make no sense and actually apply to Trump (e.g. accusing Kamala of not having plans or stealing elections). He’s early 20s and he definitely didn’t learn this at home.

Trump mugged the whole darn country. Worst president ever and my sons will not support him.

Like to recruit soldiers like my gay relative who serves in the military? Crap on their service all you want but they will still fight to defend this country. That is their duty.

A candidate who eggs on your father’s murder isn’t likely to win a boy’s heart.
And he thought the grab ‘em by the pu$$y was mind boggling. “How, Mom? How could anyone think that wasn’t totally disqualifying?”
