Trump Reveals the First Department He Would Cut as President and Liberals Howl in Horror

The Department of Education serves as nothing more than an excuse to grow the ever-bloated government bureaucracy more and more. So Donald Trump is saying that if he’s elected president, he’ll get rid of it.

Speaking with Fox News host Chris Wallace this weekend, 2016 GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump made a remarkable statement about what he planned for the Department of Education, if and when he becomes president.

“I may cut Department of Education,” Trump said. “I believe Common Core is a very bad thing. I believe that we should be — you know, educating our children from Iowa, from New Hampshire, from South Carolina, from California, from New York. I think that it should be local education.”

Many Americans agree, especially as the Department of Education has grown into a massive bureaucracy more focused on indoctrinating students in the Islamic faith and “white privilege” than in actually teaching them things that matter, like, say, literature and math.

Plus, getting rid of the Department of Education would give parents much more power over what their children learn.

Once again, Trump is demonstrating that he’s the adult equivalent of a 12-year-old running for his middle school student council, promising everything under the sun to get votes without even the slightest clue on how he will deliver. Cutting the Department of Education would be great, but Trump seems to think he’s going to be our king, not our president, and in this country, there’s a little thing called the “separation of powers” that prevents the president from doing whatever he wants. Sorry, Trump.
