Trump's Thoughts on Publick Screwels

These are the kinds of things that can get one elected.

...“I will immediately signed a new executive order to cut federal funding for any school pushing Critical Race Theory, transgender insanity, and other inappropriate racial, sexual or political content on our children.”...

 ...The candidate said that he will fight for school choice and give parents more control by making the principal an elected position.

Trump said that this includes “the right to send your child to the public, private charter, or religious school of your choice. At the same time, I refuse to abandon our public school system to these lunatics because what’s happening there is terrible. That’s why I will fight for the direct election of school principals by the parents, the parents of the school. If any principal is not getting the job done, the parents should be able to fire them immediately and select someone who will.”

“I will not give one penny to any school that has a vaccine mandate or masked mandate from kindergarten to college,” Trump said....

And finally,

...  I will keep men out of women’s sports. And I will sign a law prohibiting child sexual mutilation in all 50 states. Prohibited. And on day one I will reinstate the Trump ban on transgenders in the military....

Under a Federalist system--which has been near-obviated in the US by the Federal funding game--Trump would not have any power at all over local schools.

But the Democrats created the Department of Education, knowing it would benefit them.  Trump merely takes that bull by the horns and flips it. 

Electing principals.  Now there's a fun idea!
