Yes, they do quote that one. And, "coveffee" too. But, they do NOT miss Jones or Trump. My son was hooting with joy when Jones was handed that $45 million dollar judgement. And, there are more cases against him to come. In fact, at this point, Jones could even lose custody – and even visitation rights – of his kids; stuff came out in that Sandy Hook trial showing he lied in his custody hearings back in 2017.

When the FBI raided Mar-a-Lago, my son popped out of his bedroom practically dancing a jig to announce the raid to me and his father. His phone was ringing well into the night with friends of his here and abroad calling him to cheer that raid. Trump is being buried in legal action from New York to Georgia to Florida to the Federal level – even his golf property in Scotland is under fire. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/jan/22/donald-trump-legal-perils

The kids watch with glee as the law closes in and the GOP implodes in slow motion. And, the overturn of Roe and its implications for all our 14th Amendment rights looks to have galvanized the kids. My son thinks we'll see the largest turnout of their demographic in my lifetime.

And, it seems to be true. My son and his friends track the website FiveThirtyEight. He showed me where the Senate is projected to swing hard blue with a 63/37 split – that's a super majority to the Democrats. And, the local and gubenatorial races are looking bluer than they have in two decades.

Also, these kids – even the ones who consider themselves conservatives or libertarians, say they will never vote for republicans – ever. They want the GOP to die.
