Much of the first four months of 2020 has been a liberal’s wet dream.

This was the desired outcome for Yeb! and the Globalists who were pushing this.

I hope Trump’s top priority leading off his 2nd term is school reform

Whatever liberals touch....

And the libs not only touched education, they had all sorts of formerly banned sexual activities with it.

Dewey would be proud, yet more “reformers” following in his footsteps and dumbing down Americans.

I believe that was the goal.

Reading and math scores are racism, donchaknow.

Looks like “common core” is a success. I am presuming this is the real desired outcome.

This is a real problem. The public schools have churned out so many idiots that the idiots wield electoral power.

“Much of the first four months of 2020 has been a liberal’s wet dream.”

Well said.

‘Experts’: “We recommend 6-feet separation. Maybe. Probably the virus can linger in the air for a long time. Maybe.”

Sheeple: “OK, so our new superstition will be 6 feet! Got it! We’re safe at 6 feet.”

‘Experts’: “No, not really, but...”

Sheeple: “Don’t confuse us! We’re doing 6 feet dammit!”

Eliminate the US Department of Education. The federal government has no business in education (or healthcare either). States are better at education and it helps keep commie indoctrination down. Also eliminates ridiculous one-size fits all federal mandates. ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT ALL!!!!!!!!!!!

That's the plan, not the unintended result.

All three of my daughters attended pubic school in Japan through most or all of their elementary years. They all scored in the middle of the pack (between 40th and 60th percentiles) in the Japanese equivalent of our Iowa basic tests. First year back home (in one of the better districts in Pennsylvania), they were suddenly in the high 80th and low 90th percentiles. I kid you not.

By design. Stupid people are dependent on government.

Not sure what the problem is here. After all, public schools are still ‘free’ for my kids - so why should I care?

Take functional illiterates and dummy THEM down even further! What could go wrong with that?
