I might be projecting here, but sounds to me like he just wants to be left alone. Like, no matter where he stands politically, being the son of the president alone (let alone this one) must be pretty difficult for an adolescent.
I say let's leave him be and not judge him based on his family. If he if he joins the others, that's different. But don't treat him as an extension of his father, no matter how much of a dipshit that father may be.
I believe he tweeted something about the government stealing your money. He's taken his stand.
That's not really a stand on his father though. Just on government and taxes.
That's pretty obvious what camp he's in. Not just "fiscal conservative", it's burn down the government. You don't need to extend past that to his father. Point is he's openly taken his stand.
Yeah I agree. Even if he disagrees with his father, he can't say it. The magats would be all over him.
I actually kind of feel bad for him, too. He's in a difficult situation no matter what he thinks.
