DON JR. TELLS CONSERVATIVES TO FIGHT THEIR “LOSER” TEACHERS
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
Republicans have never been big fans of education, or, as they like to describe it, elitist sources of liberal, possibly Satanic ideology that allow our children’s brains to become infected with book learning and facts. Rick Santorum famously called Barack Obama a “snob” for wanting “everybody in America to go to college.” Last year, in the run-up to the midterms, the chairman of the Pennsylvania Republican Party reportedly accused a high-school teacher of using his position for “liberal indoctrination,” because the guy handed out voter-registration forms. Chris Christie and Scott Walker regularly demonized teachers’ unions, punishing them with draconian budget cuts . Donald Trump appointed a woman who hates schools to run the Department of Education . So it probably shouldn’t come as a surprise that the president’s eldest child and namesake, Donald Trump Jr., holds a similar view, which he shared last night at daddy’s rally in El Paso. Perhaps slightly less expected, though, was Donny’s call for conservatives to go after educators like a bunch of angry, monosyllabic frat boys.
Warming up the crowd for his father’s usual string of lies and bullshit , Junior told the group, “You know what I love? I love seeing some young conservatives.” Sounding like the belligerent drunk guy at the bar, the sentient Natty Lite keg continued: “Because I know it’s not easy. Keep up that fight. Bring it to your schools. You don’t have to be indoctrinated by these loser teachers that are trying to sell you on socialism from birth. You don’t have to do it.”
One, Donny has obviously been waiting years to get back at the high-school English teacher who gave him a D+ on his Grapes of Wrath essay. Two, no, we’re not going to give him the benefit of the doubt that he actually knows newborns don’t have teachers who can pitch them on socialism. Three, it’s probably safe to assume Junior believes teaching is some sort of deeply cushy gig that requires one-eighth of the talent necessary to shill condos with daddy’s name on them .
Presumably Don Jr.’s cries of “socialism!” played extremely well in the White House, where Donald Trump Sr. and his staff have been insisting for months that every Democratic policy will turn the U.S. into Venezuela . Less thrilled by Anthony Soprano’s attack were actual teachers, not to mention people who’ve probably had to sit next to little shits like Junior in class:

Haha. Someone is pissed off.
You know what he reminds me of?
He reminds me of those loser athletes in high school who couldn't or wouldn't get good grades and slid by in life on their daddy's money.
He hates education even tho he got one. He knows that most Americans are smarter than he is and that troubles him.
and this made me laugh "sentient Natty Lite keg".
