More intolerance from the dumb masses on display.

Joshua Trump would rather be called Joshua Berto.

The 11-year-old Delaware boy has informed his school that he's going to use his father's surname after using his mother's led to constant bullying, Megan Trump told ABC Philadelphia station WPVI.

"They curse at him, they call him an idiot, they call him stupid," she told WPVI.

It will be fitting in the annals of history that Trump, who has spent his life obsessed with self-image, will have forever sullied the name Trump.

Bullies will do what their parents and schools let them do. The kid may have a case for suing the school and the kids' parents, and criminal charges of hate crimes.

Reminds me of the Brady Bunch episode where Peter plays Benedict Arnold in a school play. Everyone begins calling him "Traitor" much to his dismay.

I would have been teaching my kid how to fight and fight nasty, like my dad did.

If your surname is Hitler, Putin, Trump, etc. it would be a good idea to change it.

Even grade school children are well aware their president is a drooling imbecile.

Hate crimes?

How about they instead seek criminal charges against the school for illegal rhinocerous poaching?

Oooh, I know, they bring criminal charges against the school for operating a school within 1000 feet of a school?

Seriously, hate crimes? LMAO..... Go educate yourself.

I thought schools had a zero tolerance policy for bullying. If the kid's name was Clinton would this have been allowed to go on?

Ok, let's logically break this down.

Trump is certainly unpopular but didn't kill tens of millions of people in a world war with associated genocide.

That being said, one would think that most sane, not mentally impaired people upon seeing the kid applying to work at Home Depot or fill out a car loan or sitting in the public school cafeteria eating PBJ isn't closely related to Trump.

Thus, you're making the statement that there are just a lot of really really stupid people out there that hate Trump and would not be able to grasp the fact that everyone with the last name is indeed....not related to the president. You didn't really think that thru now did you?

Quick check just found me 130 addresses in Chicago with a Trump last name which means there are a few hundred trumps just in one city, so probably 4-5,000 people with that last name in the US.

So, if you want to claim that the anti-trump people are so nuts and stupid that they couldn't help but go after the thousands of people in the US with the last name of Trump then I guess that's your viewpoint.
