Oh the Irony: Boy bullied for being named "trump" to be guest at SOTU

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/boy-who-bullied-because-he-s-named-trump-among-white-n966876

Poor kid. Bullying is obviously wrong, and this kid shouldn't have to endure it.The irony is that it's all trump's fault, and his narcissism knows no bounds. I bet someone in melania's office got a gold star when they found this kid.

In typical Republican fashion, they like to start shit, but then cry victim when the tables turn.

I'd like to find out a little more about this kid from his classmates.

Who knows? He could be a sweet kid, caught up having the Trump name getting permanently soiled by the dottard.

He could also be a Trump supporter, who tried to play some connection with Trump or his agenda.

WHY does Donald Trump insist upon making this innocent boy's suffering continue?

7. I doubt they found this kid. More like the parents or the kid reached out for the attention.

I'm betting on a Trump supporting family, trying to assist Melania with her failed anti-bully campaign.
