THE ERA OF TRUMP

[StCapps]

I heard that if we make any changes to the public school system, we will rank last out of first world countries in math and language, and spend the most per pupil.

Sounds ghastly.

We don't already do that?

That's the joke.

There is no ideological reason that more Stupid would be attracted to the Left or the Right. Unless you're actually thinking that one race has more Stupid than another.

WOW

first time anyone on these boards insinuated that I'm racist.


Where have I seen these tactics before?

I'm not insinuating that at all. I'm implying that you should follow your string of logic to its conclusion.

There's a 50-50 split in power between the 2 parties, more or less. The premise has been put out that minorities vote overwhelmingly to one side. The next premise is that that side is ideologically 'dumber' than the other. Ergo, minorities 'just don't know better.

I'm stating that unless you're implicitly saying that, then you have to accept that both sides are equally stupid.

Well if the anti-Trump contingent out there is truly upset by DeVos' confirmation, someone has provided them a way out, of sorts, in the form of a shiny, red button.

From: Why Do We Have a Department of Education? Jimmy Carter's Debt to a Teachers Union.

Just today, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) has introduced H.R. 899, a one-sentence long bill which would eliminate the Department of Education in its entirety by the end of 2018.

Even if both sides were equally stupid, you alone would tip the balance.

You are assuming that we think racial minorities vote Democrat because they are racial minorities or are more prone to ignorant viewpoints because of their racial minority status. More projection. Apparently racial minorities are incapable of coming to ignorant viewpoints for reasons other than their race according to GCF, he can't imagine any other possibility so he assumes anyone who thinks the left is dumber than the right is simply racist because a larger portion of racial minorities are on the left.

Possibly the worst post in MHF's short history.

Go back and re-read what I actually wrote, about the pendulum swinging back and forth. That in no could be interpreted as congruent with your allegations here.
