(27,800 posts)I certainly hopes this comes back to haunt him. What's wrong with him, and what's wrong with the Boy Scout troop leaders who are permitting this to happen?

(16,352 posts)Because there are scouts from every state in the union at the jamboree. Do you think some scout leader from Alabama or Idaho or West Virginia is more likely to be a Trump supporter or a Hillary/Dem supporter?

(27,800 posts)I'd hope that they'd understand that their organization should have some decorum and manners.

Makes me sad and a little depressed. Trump's corrupted the Boy Scouts and ruined the Jamboree

(21,552 posts)Statistics tell us at least around 1/3 of them are sons of deplorables, making most of the noise. some are bound to join in just because they are in awe of seeing the (illegitimate) president plus the simply crowd/mob mentality to boo because you want to fit in or think it is funny.
Long story short the boy scouts are not a bastion of deplorables any more than the rest of the population. just some youth being manipulated by an insecure attention seeking authority figure.
Fuck 45 for encouraging them to a bully-like behavior. He is despicable.

(47,547 posts)A ton of threads popped up saying Clinton was boo'd by Boy Scouts. This is the one I clicked on.
Yours was the first claim I saw saying it wasn't Clinton who was being boo'd, but Obama, and you were mad(?) that people would believe an unsupported tweet, even though you offered no support for your claim that it was actually Obama.
Just wanted you to step outside of yourself and look at it how I was looking at it.
My apologies.

(BOOING)
She was told she was going to win Michigan, and I said, well, wait a minute. The car industry is moving to Mexico. Why is she going to move -- she's there. Why are they allowing it to move? And by the way, do you see those car industry -- do you see what's happening? They're coming back to Michigan. They're coming back to Ohio. They're starting to peel back in. "
