And People Wonder Why The Country Is In Such Bad Shape

DANA BASH: What the Fairfax County superintendent is saying is they would need a building the size of 5 Pentagons in order to accommodate their students and meet the CDC guidelines. So should they follow them?

BETSY DeVOS: The CDC guidelines are meant to be flexible. pic.twitter.com/4FVlCOU7QY

WALLACE: Germany had 378 new cases Fri. The US had 68,226. Is it fair to compare?

DeVOS: Well, we're talking about reopening schools

W: But schools happen in an environment

D: We're not talking about places where it's out of control [it's out of control in much of the country] pic.twitter.com/n21pKu94c0

So, not in America, then?

In a cabinet full of lowlifes, stooges, boot lickers, idiots & grifters, @BetsyDeVosED is near the top as one of the worst. Shallow and cruel, perfect for @realDonaldTrump She is a danger to American children, teachers and school staff. #resign https://t.co/OJSrcGutS0

I really like this racist idea that we need to save "worthy" white children from public schools by giving them the money they need to go to private school, where the blacks and browns can be excluded (but not the Asian, they're okay).  Not only are there no such schools, but in this pandemic, how many private schools do you think are being pressured to reopen by parents of the children going there?  And since those schools can say "you're money's no good here," how many students do vouchers actually save?

Betsy DeVos is not fit to be among humans, much less to be Secretary of Education.
