In Jefferson County Colorado
there is an office
where a 12-year-old
named Weston Imer
is in charge of coordinating volunteers
and getting out the vote
for Donald Trump.
The officially listed coordinator
is his mother Laurel
who says
of her son's weighty duties
that only get weightier
every time Trump opens his mouth
"You have a responsibility
to your children to teach them."
