JD VANCE: Our seven year old, it’s funny, you know, he’s in second grade and one of his buddies, their, their parents came to us and said, “Do you know that the kids are playing this game in school called, uh, called boss man, where basically one second grader will walk down the hallway or down the playground flanked by two separate second graders. Like they’re playing secret service now?” Like they’re playing secret service now in their school.
