And I had yard duty while monitoring the snack break before recess this little girl said to me Kamala should have been president and things would have been better. . I was surprised but silent, then this girl went on and asked the other kids if they liked the orange felon. They all said they wanted Kamala as president, I was a little taken back and did not express my political preferences. But was shocked that they brought it up. Then I heard from another Kindergarten teacher that one of her students who is named Elon hates his name and is depressed ! The teacher said that maybe they could start using his middle name instead of Elon during a parent teacher conference. I have subbed in that class numerous times and while doing attendance he looked down and was upset.
Shockingly these 6 year old must listen to their parents talking at home against the orange Hitler and Elon and inside I was laughing. I remembered the day after the orange Hitler was elected 2016 subbing a third grade class and the kids were crying and I had trouble doing the lesson plan because all they wanted to talk about was how they were scared for family memebers who were Asian and Hispanic and not naturalized citizens. I told the teacher the next time I saw them what happened and the teacher admitted he was stressed out that day and purposely took the day off!
Little 6 year olds have more sense than magas!

History will show this in quite exquisite detail.
