That's quite a claim to make, do you have any supporting evidence or did you just hear that from Tucker?
You're seriously denying this?

Try to follow along, I'll try to use small words...

Rich people don't need school choice, they can afford to send their kids to great schools.

Rich people are disproportionately white.

So, people who aren't that rich, are disproportionately black.

The worst schools are in poor, urban areas, which are disproportionately inhabited by blacks (thanks to liberalism).

I tried to use mostly monosyllabic words. If it's still going too fast for you, I can try to make it into a pop-up book.

So using small words makes what you think true, now I understand why you believe in Tweety.

There are plenty of poor white people also. If you're poor getting a tax incentive for paying for private school isn't really going to compute. It would possibly help some in the middle class and be a handout to the rich unless it's phased out by income.

i said poor people are disproportionately black. is that true, or is that false?

i never said there are zero poor white people. that again, was biden, who said poor kids are just as smart as white kids.

Poor people are disproportionately black. is that true, or is it false?

It would be more accurate to say that poor people are disproportionately in minority groups.

Why is that "more accurate"? Are blacks one of the minority groups who make up a disproportionate share of those living in poverty?

Asians are a minority. I don't know if they are disproportionately living in poverty.
