We have a republic, not a democracy. The federal government does not have a significant, if any, constitutional role in a comprehensive plan for education of our children. The President has even less than that. It is up to the states when to open the schools. And it is up to the states to fund it.

What are you saying that potus doesn’t understand he can’t force the children back to class, or are you confirming the messaging from the top is dangerous and irresponsible?

Wait for the threat to withhold federal funding for states who are concerned about opening.

Nice, Trump made it 90 minutes after this post.
Just to make sure everyone is clear here, Trump is using your kids as pawns in his reelection campaign.

There should be no federal funds for education. And the federal government should quit taxing the bejesus out of everyone in the states in order to pay for the scads of programs the fed has no constitutional mandate to create.
Then the states would have enough of a not already overtaxed base to be able to tax their own citizens for the things those citizens want.

Clap yourself on the back Nostradamus.

I'm not saying either. Are you asking for a debate, or for me to just shut up after you push my buttons so I will respond?
