McMahon for Department of Education

• Trump taps Linda McMahon for EdSec: On Tuesday, Donald Trump nominated Linda McMahon, the wife of World Wrestling Entertainment owner Vince McMahon, to head the Department of Education. This will be McMahon's second stint in Trump's administration after serving as the administrator of the Small Business Administration from 2017 to 2019. Trump noted McMahon's experience with both business and education, as she served on the Connecticut Board of Education for two years. While Trump had been toying with the idea of eliminating the Department of Education altogether, McMahon's nomination indicates that won't be happening — at least not yet. In light of this, Trump made clear that his goal for the department is to expand school choice to every state while also giving each state the authority over educational standards. That will be an interesting juxtaposition for McMahon to pull off. Furthermore, will she be able to cull the number of DOE bureaucrats?

Maybe her job will be to dismantle the Department of Education. Did you know that every republican presidential candidate since and including Reagan has promised to abolish the Department of Education?

If any one will do it, he will. Look what he did with the city of Jerusalem after every president for decades said they would do what he did.

LOL I asked for Vince to be the VP. This is almost as good!
