"Donald Trump flops over his pink and white baby walker and rolls it around his family's modest home in Kabul, blissfully unaware..."

"... of the turmoil his 'infidel' name is causing in the deeply conservative Muslim country. The rosy-cheeked toddler's parents named him after the billionaire US President in the hope of replicating his success. But now he is at the centre of a social media firestorm in Afghanistan after a photo of hit ID papers was posted on Facebook.... 'I didn't know at the beginning that Afghan people would be so sensitive about a name,' Sayed [said]... 'When I go out of the house I feel intimidated,' he said."

Channel News Asia reports, and I see that people are so mean that some of them sank to the level where I immediately found myself: "There are even suggestions Sayed is using the moniker to wangle asylum in the United States...."

Hah, and it’s conservatives who are like the Taliban. This kid better not come to the US, or he will probably be barred entry from kindergarten.

From Berkeley to Afghanistan, when exactly did being "sensitive" morph into being violently hostile?

'I didn't know at the beginning that Afghan people would be so sensitive about a name,' Sayed [said].

“Would it be any different here?“

Leftists always turn to violence.

Here they are kept in check because the United States allows it’s people to defend themselves from the leftists.

This makes the leftists angry and bitter and they really don’t like the second amendment.

I bet CNN sent a crew to interview the family to determine whether or not there was some other reason the kid is named Donald Trump- offering a free DNA test, too.

Their biggest problem is that their neighbor Chuck Patel keeps trying to twist the babies nipples.

The baby was born before the election so he would have named him Hillary Clinton if he was wrangling.
