I believe Donald Trump would agree with the
proposition that the American education system is worse today than it was when
the Department of Education was established in 1980. That statistic alone would
strongly suggest that the fault for the dumbing-down of America lies with the
liberal establishment and their Department of Education. And although thinking
people may suggest that the best way to begin education reformation in America
is to ban and abolish the Department itself, President Trump decided to reform
it from the inside instead.
Similarly, education is more political than ever, and
children are learning less, with the poorest children in the nation being the
most abused and left uneducated by our federal education system. The most
obvious problem is the political mafia who rule via contacts with the teachers’
unions, which are beholden to, and donate millions of dollars to, the Democrat
party.
Short of repealing the enabling legislation that
created the Department, the only way to reform it and change the leftist
corruption is to get a reformer into the Secretary of Education position, and
President Trump’s nominee, Betsy DeVos, was confirmed to that position yesterday,
after the unbelievable, unjustified and abusive opposition of Democrats in the
Senate.
This is another triumph for our new President and his
attempts to rid the Washington swamp of all the corruption that liberals have
filled it with the last 50 years. But don’t think that this victory for American
education and for our new President will not meet even more insane, dishonest
and outrageous opposition by the diminished but even more dangerous and loony leftist
Democrat party and their allies in the liberal press.
