Our 8-year-old stunned us at the breakfast table with an announcement that she’s voting for Trump. Her class held a vote at recess and Trump won. Biden lost. Nobody heard of Kamala, so she garnered no votes. The breakdown was: girls for Trump, boys for Biden.
I’ve never mentioned Trump or anything political in her presence, we don’t turn on the TV, we don’t hang out with people who talk politics when the kids are around. This is why it came as a shock that she knows who Trump and Biden are. She also related the story of both assassination attempts on Trump with all sorts of correct details.
I said I didn’t know who I was going to vote for, and Klara responded, “Come on, Mommy, it’s obvious. He was shot at twice and the other guy dropped out when nobody shot at him.”
I have no idea why I thought she wouldn’t know about this stuff. My parents talked to me about what the USSR really was when I was 9, and my kid is 8,5.

I was really stunned. This came completely out of nowhere.

LOL, sorry to laugh, but suspect that there will be a lot more shocks as she approaches puberty because older girls will “educate” her ;-D

She picks up more from you and N than you think. She has peers at her good religious school — who have parents who talk about politics, or have the phone or tv on in in earshot and the kids repeat what they hear.
+1 for your school choice! No woke parents who parent the line to their kids who in turn repeat it to their classmates!
Fascinated by the girl boy breakdown. Why were the boys for Biden?

Oh, the clumsy attempts at sarcasm of the perennially inflamed.
Relax, it’s a cute playground anecdote. The normal reaction is to chuckle and consider the loveliness of the kids.

Wow compare her to the population of California and New York. DemoCRAPS have really dumbed down the American electorate with illegal aliens.
