Political Operative

“Mommy, have you observed that the cost of living is rising?” asks my 8-year-old on the way to school.

“Why? Do you need me to buy something?”

“No, but I do need you to vote for Donald Trump to make sure that this stops happening.”

      I absolutely swear that I never used this phrase in her presence. At this point, I fully expect her to come out with an intelligent discussion of interest rates and monetary policy.

        Do you think she’s found the illicit copy of *Human Action* under your bed and started sneaking looks at it?

          Well, she did tell me she doesn’t need to hear about sex from me because she already read the Encyclopedia of the Human Body. So yes, it’s a strong possibility.

    Your daughter is more informed than the median democratic party voter.
