Donald Trump is one widely hated man — by young and old, alike. And honestly, it’s for good reason. He’s literally done nothing but tear families apart, lock innocent children and brown people in cages indefinitely, tried to take away healthcare from millions of Americans, and just all around destroyed pretty much every last good thing about this country.
It’s really no surprise that throngs of grown-ups swarm the man at every given opportunity with signs and chants of protest to let him know just how much they really hate him. But this particular situation is a little different than most — a little girl made her feelings about the president known to everyone.
In a viral Twitter video, a young girl who looks to be around 10 or 12 years old, can be seen interacting with a Donald Trump lookalike in front of a crowd of adults who are holding up signs in protests of the president. The Trump impersonator goes to put his arm around the child and asks her to take a picture with him.
The kid responds by pulling away from his advance, looking him square in the face, and saying “You’re a disgrace to the world” — which elicited a plethora of cheers from the gathered crowd.
“Let’s just do it and be done, okay?” the impersonator tells her, in true Donald Trump fashion.
But the little girl is having no part of it and instead turns towards him and snaps her own picture of his face.
The audience of witnesses to the little girl’s bravery weren’t the only ones to cheer her on. Twitter was quite enamored with her, as well:
This little girl is right. She is a HERO.
Racism
Xenophobia
Islamophobia
Misogyny
Homophobia
Inhumane immigration policies
Everything about trump is amoral and a disgrace to the world!

There is a lesson in this from this young little girl and that is
If you see Xenophobia CALL IT OUT
If you see Islamophobia CALL IT OUT
If you see Racism CALL IT OUT
If you see Misogyny CALL IT OUT
If you see Homophobia CALL IT OUTAnd call it what is “A disgrace to the world”

Just because this isn’t actually trump doesn’t make this little any less of a HERO, any less ICONIC, or her words any less TRUE
This young queen is a LEGEND.
(Pretty sure she thought this impersonator was actually trump)

This child has more integrity and courage than the ENTIRE @GOP

Doesn’t matter that it’s not trump. What *does* matter is that this child doesn’t know that this is an impersonator & was willing to say this to “trump’s” face. Unapologetic & unafraid.

She has more backbone, dignity and honour than all of the Republican Party and Evangelical Christians ( who support Trump) combined.
One less hypocrite in the world – this young girl sets the best possible example to everyone, especially adults.

Someone give that kid a gold star, an ice cream party, a trip to DisneyWorld. She deserves it all.
