The Spin

Linda McMahon is a great choice to take on the corrupt teachers' unions. She would disrupt the Democrat establishment's loyalty to the NEA and AFT, whose interests prioritize bureaucracy over children. As Democrats use failing schools to ask for more money, McMahon would dismantle inefficiencies in the DOE and advance brighter futures.

There are many reasons Linda McMahon shouldn't be in charge of DOE, most natablynotably that she and her husband are currently being sued for turning a blind eye to sexual abuse at WWE. Despite, that Trump doesn'tis carewilling aboutto that,destroy however,the becauseED — and the McMahon'sspecial donatededucation closefunding tothat $1Mcomes dollarswith it — all because the McMahons donated to his first campaign and isare nowinfluenced controlled by theconservative anti-educationthink religious righttanks.
