A sixth grade teacher asks her class how many were Trump fans.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
Despite them not knowing what a Trump fan was but wanting to be liked by the teacher, they all raised their hands. Well, all except for little Timmy.
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
The teacher looks over to little Timmy and asks, “Timmy, why are you being different again?”
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
He says, “well, because Im not a Trump fan.”
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“Why arent you a Trump fan?”

<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
“Because Im a democrat.”
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
The teacher snuffs and says, “oh really? Why are you a democrat?”
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
He responds, “well, my mom is a democrat, my dad is a democrat, so Im a democrat.”
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
She then says, “Oh really? Then what if your mom was a moron and your dad was an idiot, what would that make you?”
</p>
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom">
Little Timmy smiles and says, “a Trump fan.”
