Donald Trump has found a new audience to preen before...

Trump is now telling the Boy Scouts about his "tremendous crowds" in Wisconsin and the "fake polls."

[Eliot Rosewater]

1. Didnt he also attack HRC to thunderous applause?

I am so sick.

[Quanta]

2. Poor kids...this is like child abuse or something...

[thegoose]

10. Absolutely! They're American youth at its most faithful

And they have no reason to be forced to listen to this orange crapsicle's constant ridiculous rhetoric.

[Blue_true]

14. They are cheering him.

What the hell are you saying? They are little rats.

[Quanta]

19. That they are probably merely parroting their parents' political views and going along

with the pomp and circumstance at that age.

3. wonder how long it will be

before he's entertaining preemies in the hospital ward.

6. They need to know ...

If you don't count New York and California,
Trump won the popular vote!

(So he has said)

[Gabi Hayes]

7. Spinal Tap?

[cyclonefence]

4. One cheerful thing

is that CNN kept moving its camera to show this group of kids cracking up with laughter--to the point of snot shooting out of their noses--and Trump wasn't telling a joke.

[leftstreet]

5. Ugh. Sounds like a Trump Youth rally

Link to tweet

Trump tells the Boy Scouts he's going to kill Obamacare; Boy Scouts respond with chants of "U-S-A! U-S-A!"

[thegoose]

16. Gah!

[underpants]

8. Thank GOD and MURKA the Boy Scouts and the Catholic Church have been so drastically different

[kimbutgar]

9. I lost all respect for the Boy Scout organization

This is child abuse. He is doing politicial bs instead of telling the kids to be good citizens. How gross.

[LisaM]

11. Where are the troop leaders?

I sincerely hope there are some conversations around the campfires or whatever they do tonight. This is completely unacceptable.

[mcar]

12. Trump Youth

I turned it off. It was nauseating.

I'm happy to see on Twitter some Scout parents are threatening to pull their kids from scouting if the org doesn't disavow that atrocity of a speech.

[Vinca]

13. The Boy Scouts of America should be ashamed by the behavior of this crowd.

And Dear Leader should be ashamed of the way he's goading them into bad behavior.

[NanceGreggs]

15. I'm sure that the Boy Scouts ...

... were riveted by his stories about how it's "easy" to win the popular vote, but he won the electoral college vote which is much harder.

No doubt they were fascinated by his anecdotes about Levittown, and all the parties he was invited to because he was a bigly success.

Is there a merit badge for having survived listening to this complete bullshit? If there isn't, there should be.

[MindPilot]

17. Fuck the Boy Scouts

just another religious group who likes to exclude people who aren't just like them.

[COLGATE4]

18. Boy Scouts / Hitler Jugend?

[Quanta]

20. Ew.

OK, I saw the recent footage. Sorry, I commented too fast earlier, my bad.

Yeah, this is getting freaky and brown shirty and hitler youthy real fast, isn't it?
