...Sorry, what? You think any fucking person, including a kid thought for one second that Trump was actually murdered? How old are you?

(Anonymous) 2017-06-07 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Barron Trump allegedly saw it on TV and started screaming. I don't know if that story was ever verified, but it was all over Twitter at first.

(Anonymous) 2017-06-07 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Calling bullshit on that.

(Anonymous) 2017-06-07 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
100% bullshit. Media-manufactured glurge.

I dunno. I'm a 30 year old man, and if I saw a photo of someone holding a bloodied head of my da, I think I'd spaz out too. I'd know it's not real, but the gut impulse would be one of shock and horror, I think. Give that to a kid and, Yeah, I could buy him screaming and panicking.

(Anonymous) 2017-06-07 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
But would you think your dad was actually dead?

Not logically, no, but I don't see that as the key point. Id still feel the shock of seeing my dad dead even if I didn't believe it.

And again, he's 11.

If you show an 11 year old a photo of his dead dad, and he spazes out, you would conclude he believed it was real, right? any adult would make that assumption. Any adult who's not trying to frame the 11 year old as a sociopath lacking human emotions. Then that adult might be inclined to call the kid a faker and say shit like "Oh, he didn't really believe it, tho" like that makes a damn bit of difference. You show a kid a photo of his dad beheaded, the kid screams and gets upset, it is not a logical leap to assume the kid believed it, even if he didn't. even if you wouldn't believe it.

I gotta agree. Way stupider shit gave me nightmares when I was 11. If animated ducks could do that to me, I don't know what I would think about something like that... I don't know if it really happened, but it's believable, if the kid saw it.

(Anonymous) 2017-06-07 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, there's also a conspiracy theory that Barron is autistic, so maybe

It's probably bullshit though

(Anonymous) 2017-06-07 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
How high functioning though? If he's so damaged that he thought it was real then he's low enough functioning that he ought to be institutionalized. If he's not damaged enough to institutionalize then he knows the difference.

(Anonymous) 2017-06-08 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
Fuck off. He's an 11 year old kid. It doesn't make him autistic or "low functioning" to be freaked out at seeing a picture of your parents' bloodied head. That shit would freak me out if I saw it and I'm an adult.

Institutionalized? Sorry, what decade is it again?

(Anonymous) 2017-06-08 12:14 am (UTC)(link)
Judging from the homophobia, misogyny, and the amount of nooses and racial slurs popping up everywhere since Trump took office... I'm going with the 1940s. Republican America, ya gotta take the rough with the smooth.

(Anonymous) 2017-06-08 12:08 am (UTC)(link)
Well, given who his dad is...

(Anonymous) 2017-06-08 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
"Conspiracy theory"? How is it a conspiracy for someone to be autistic?

(Anonymous) 2017-06-08 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
'Cause maybe he was vaccinated.

(Anonymous) 2017-06-07 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Maybe if Trump weren't a deadbeat dad Barron would've known he was alive.

But, seriously, this is the same old usage of children as props to make you seem a victim that the right always uses, then conveniently forgets when it could apply to a democrat's child.

It is pretty awful when kids are dragged into the middle of someone else's bullshit. Ken Jennings tried to make this point, though couldn't do it in a way that made it seem like he was mocking the kid.

I sincerely hope Barron didn't actually believe for a moment, at 11 years old, that the thing Griffin was holding was his dad's head. Because if so, then someone in that household has failed that poor child.

(Anonymous) 2017-06-07 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
If that story is true (and I don't for one minute think that it is), the person at fault is his nanny for allowing him to be exposed to the picture.

(Anonymous) 2017-06-08 10:04 am (UTC)(link)
for all we know he was screaming of joy at thinking he was finally dead

(though for real, are we supposed to believe this kid was randomly watching the exact news channel that decided to show the photo uncensored? mmmmmmmmmmmmmm 'kay)

(Anonymous) 2017-06-07 11:15 pm (UTC)(link)
She made a statement after the election about how she intended to target Barron Trump because it would 'give her an edge' among comedians because they were all going to go after the president (elect).

Think about that for a minute. A grown woman picking on an 11 year old. How classy is that?

(Anonymous) 2017-06-07 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Who thought Kathy Griffin was classy? Who are you arguing against there?

Touche.
