Well, I’ll give you this - it’s a decent metaphor for what a lot of people seem to think socialism is. So, if it makes sense to have a metaphor explaining a deliberate misunderstanding of an economic system used to justify continued systemic abuses in another economic system, which just so happens to benefit the…

Well EVIL is only when those filthy poors happen to also not be white. Otherwise, it’s “a shame, but I’m sure they’re just going thru a rough time, and would you like all of my candy corn? I hate the candy corn....”

Ya know, it is possible to be wealthy without being a Grinchy Grinch, and to raise kids who care about people who have less than they do.

I’m just sayin’.

They had her appear at the convention, and she’s been out of sight since. I think that since she was raised by her mom and DJT had nothing to do with her as a kid, he forgets she exists.

Good for her.

I told every house we stopped at to make my kid clean their house a bit to get their piece of candy. Then I broke off a small piece each time and gave it to the kid and ate the rest while they watched. Never too early to teach them about capitalism.

No its not because it ignores the point. Once you start saying socialism is about giving to those who “didn’t earn it” you lose the point.

It’s ironic coming from someone who didn’t actually work for any of his wealth, and inherited it from someone who also didn’t work for any of his wealth.

That particular kid may grow up with a dad in prison and much of the family wealth seaized, if there’s any justice in the world. I realize that there being any justice in the world is unlikely, though.

I’ve never felt so bad for a cute kid with a bucket of candy.

Even if she’s not corrupt, she’s working a job we’ve all agreed to pay for out of our taxes. I’m trying to think of the term that describes a government position paid for out of agreed obligation instead of market forces. Escapes me.

I know absolutely nothing about Tiffany. Which makes me believe she is smart enough to lay low and distance herself from the rest of the brood.

Yeah same. Literally every one of Trump’s kids is blatantly stupid and I feel really bad for his grandkids because unless they break free from the family, they will also grow up to entitled, bratty stupid adults.

Smug and simplistic anti-socialist comments from transparently right-wing douchebags/useful idiots > smug and insidious anti-socialist comments from supposedly ‘centrist’ neolibs who want to uphold a system that benefits a small percentage of millionaires whilst pretending to be the ‘voice of reason’

The better lesson would’ve been “How to go trick-or-treating next year, when Daddy is in prison.”

I feel bad when I see Trump kids because they seem fine, and I know they will grow up to be awful.

It’s cute that you think he took her trick-or-treating. That’s a job for the help.

“Donald Trump Jr. tries, fails to understand” should just be the headline for any mention of him, anywhere. I’m starting to believe his dad’s frequent rambling about genes, just not that the family’s are any good.

No no, as long as it’s the rich getting the handout, they’re A-OK with it. It only becomes socialism and therefore EVIL when filthy poors also get free candy.

I wonder what lessons he’ll teach her next Halloween when he’s in prison for treason.

I just waited for my dad to give me 2 million pieces of candy. In 50 years, I’ll just say it was a small Halloween loan.
