A CNN segment on kids and politics where the youngsters were asked for their take on Democrat nominee Kamala Harris resulted in some answers that likely weren’t what the ardently pro-Democrat cable network was expecting.
In the segment that aired this week, anchor Anderson Cooper and the network partnered with a Stanford University political scientist and a child psychologist from Arizona State University for interviews with fourth graders in several states – all with the permission of their parents – to examine how “political polarization” impacts the nation’s children.
“Liar,” says one boy when asked for the one word that pops into his head that best describes the vice president.

When asked about which of the two presidential candidates would be more selfish, one girl points at Harris and says “probably her” adding that “girls are a little bit dramatic sometimes.”
A black girl responded, “It would be good for us to have a black woman as president for the first time in history” but “my vote is still kinda on Trump.”
American kids are fine with a black woman being President BUT NOT KAMALA HARRIS.

In the opinion of another girl, the vice president is “pretty and stuff but I just don’t think a woman would be right for a president,” saying that a man would be a “stronger” leader.
Other kids thought that the GOP nominee would be “brave” and “tougher” after he survived an attempted assassination.
But more troubling were the answers from the kids about former President Donald J. Trump, a sad statement that not only are America’s youngest citizens being indoctrinated by leftist ideology in classrooms, but also from their hateful parents at home.
CNN: Researchers found “more extreme responses from the Blue state kids than the Red state kids.”
“Democrat-leaning kids were abut nine time more likely to express negative emotions about Donald Trump than Republican-leaning kids were about Kamala Harris.”

“Donald Trump, he did bad things, he’s like Hitler,” one boy said of the former president, a Democrat talking point that has had a disturbing amount of success in brainwashing gullible people, who are passing it on to their children.
“He only wanted to be president so he can just control everybody,” a girl said.
A New Jersey boy told the interviewer that “Trump is supporting January 6 now. I remember that January 6 was a bunch of Republicans believing Trump, I feel like they thought Trump was a god.”
“People got arrested,” he said. “I think one officer died after…afterwards. That was a big day.”
The researchers found that the kids in blue states were more likely to express negative sentiment about Trump than their red state counterparts were about Harris.
“The study found that these Democrat-leaning kids were about nine times more likely to express negative emotions about Donald Trump than Republican-leaning kids were about Kamala Harris,” Cooper said, not acknowledging the major role that his network has played in promoting hatred and lies about Trump and his supporters.
