The Washington Post is trying a new tactic to mock President Trump's tweets: they assembled a "Washington Post Kids Chorus" of grade-school kids to sing (or rap) actual Trump tweets.
They posted the video on Friday, and Jonathan Easley at The Hill tweeted: "WaPo getting kids to mockingly sing Trump's tweets seems needlessly antagonistic and a dumb move right now."
Or maybe the Post is looking to market itself to Trump-hating liberals, this is a way to build its social-media presence. Mocking Trump as less mature than a ten-year-old could build their audience -- even if it further erodes any notion that the Post is nonpartisan, fair, and balanced.

Very, very, disturbing. I couldn't watch the entire video. For Liberals to use their own children in this way, I find it personally disgusting in the extreme. Leave children out of politics. Please.
