We had better learn something from this pseudo-religious attack on America. We are not returning to the ignorance fostered by these people.

Roger Stone can’t go to prison for fear of COVID-19, and Manafort and Cohen should be let out at once…but our kids, teachers, and international students must go to school!

“But he’s looking at potentially redirecting that to make sure it goes to the student, and it is most likely tied to the student, and not to a district where schools are closed,” McEnany said.
This is pure Besty DeVos speak right here. This something straight out her “school choice” ideology. This the money that goes to school districts is given to parents then they can then send their child to whatever school they want, public, private, religious private.
McEnany replied that the President “wants to increase funding and cares for education.”
And this part will not sit well with Republicans in general. Actually it shouldn’t sit well with anyone. Kaylie is seemly saying that Trump wants more federal funding for education, but where would that money come from, what is going to get cut to pay for this?

WH Won’t Say What Authority Trump Has To Cut Funding To Schools That Don’t Reopen
Who cares? As long as he trumpets it around September I’m okay with his strategy, which by then he’ll be pronouncing as STRA-chur-jury.

Biden should immediately come out and say that on day one he will reverse whatever cuts Trump tries to implement, and make sure that the schools get all the federal money for the year that they are supposed to.

This was today’s interview on Fresh Air.
What I took from it is white grievance; blah, blah back to Christian nation; and these folks don’t get their news from the mainstream news sources.

Of course he doesn’t have the authority to do this, and, as always is projecting about it being a political issue for those who want to ensure safety. If in-person group instruction is so vital to children’s well-being – and I agree it is preferable when safe – how do his supporters square that with all the home-schooled kids (pre-pandemic) that he would no doubt voice support for because it is often for religious reasons? Having said all this, I realize it’s a fools errand to look for any logical consistency much less sincere thought with this guy. Basically, he just says stuff and, if it gets a reaction, says it again and again. We should all just laugh at him and call him ridiculous whenever he opens his mouth or tweets.

McEnany then reemphasized that the President will push schools to reopen in light of “grave consequences” if students do not return to them in the fall.
Yep, “grave” consequences, all right.

For those of you that think Trump may quit:
President Donald Trump is fully committed to winning reelection, he said in an interview published Wednesday, and believes Republicans need to get tough if they want to win in November.
“If the Republicans don’t toughen up and get smart and get strong and protect our heritage and protect our country — I think they’re going to have a very tough election,” Trump said in the interview with RealClearPolitics . With respect to winning his own race, he added, “I want it with all my breath, with every ounce of what I represent.”
And that’s a whole lot of fucking ounces.
