The joke is on Mooch and the dysfunctional White House, not the Scouts. Funtatlaguy Jul 2017 #2
And yet, the scouts are the butt of the joke. MineralMan Jul 2017 #4

There's no reason to take any of this out on the Boy Scouts. Although the organization is to the right, the boys who are members are just boys. And the Webelos are the very youngest of scouts. Let's leave them out of this whole thing, OK?

No kids mentioned.
The joke was a play on the word, Webelos....just a little funny...
I was a Cub, Webelo, and a Boy Scout if that matters. If it really bothers you, report me for a violation of being a Scout hater. Going for a walk. Have a good day, man.
