I recently spoke to a scout who was actually there.

Said that news coverage is completely wrong (no surprise) and that the scouts generally enjoyed President Trump's speech. He - and the scouts around him - liked the digs at Obama. Reading between the lines, I think that they liked the rebelliousness. Obama had been president through most of their lives, and here's a guy on stage metaphorically sticking out his tongue at him.

No idea what the kid's politics are. Didn't matter. Gave me a little hope for the future

Remember that the Scouts themselves are members of “Generation Z” (even typing that makes me feel old) — it seems like they are trending conservative (maybe even very conservative) because of Obama’s failed policies during their formative years.

If anyone is angry at Trump, it is the adult leaders, especially those with a desire to “fundamentally change” the Scouting program with the insertion of SJW nonsense.
