JPPaverage's JournalShhh. Don't tell trump. Asian girl is on student council.
My (step) daughter just got selected for the student council at her elementary school. She's Filipina and not yet a citizen of the USA. Ok, so it isn't city council or anything like that, and it's fourth grade, but her teacher, counselor, and classmates seem to think she's leadership material. So she's on the student council. My understanding is that there is only one rep. per classroom, so it's pretty good if you ask me.
I think it's great and more than a bit ironic that an immigrant girl who isn't a citizen yet can be in a position of leadership, even in an elementary school setting. This is the same kid who, on a bus trip to Chicago booed when she saw the trump building. This is the same kid who says, "Trump is ugly" when she sees his ugly face on tv. So maybe there's hope for humanity yet because her friends do not see her as Asian, they just see her as another kid, albeit a smart kid. I am thinking about telling Grassley and Ernst, but those dirty a**holes may try to have her deported. "Can't have them Asians in a position of leadership."
Well anyway, just thought I'd brag a bit. I guess I'm turning into one of those parents. The kind that used to annoy me.
I've got it. My road to getting rich!
Since Nike stock went down a lot today, think I'll buy up a bunch of their stocks at a cheap rate. That way, when the stock goes up again, as it will assuredly do, I can sell high. Maybe I can dupe, er, sell at the higher rate to trumpites.
My point is, Nike will do just fine in spite of today's drop. I believe they are going for a younger audience with the Kaepernick ad anyway.
