As a young kid, I cried when Bush (I, the OG Bush) won. I still remember it. I was heavily influenced by my mom and grandparents who were (are) huge lefties. My mother in particularly tried to tightly control my opinions.

By 1992 I was older and more aware. I was reading books, magazines, multiple newspapers, and I was learning that the media was (is) a piece of shit. In 1992 a teacher started yelling at me in class, literally yelling, because I was arguing with her about the Bush/Clinton election and she didn't have a calm answer for anything I said about the election.

Long story short, this story is fake and gay, as they say, but don't underestimate mothers trying to control their children, nor their children overcoming that.
