Teachers Union: Trump Is To Blame For School Bullying
Daily caller ^ | May 5, 2016 | Blake Neff

The head of one of America’s largest teachers unions said Wednesday that Donald Trump is creating “bullying environments” in schools nationwide that will take decades to repair.

Randi Weingarten, president of the 1.6 million member American Federation of Teachers (AFT), made her remarks during a conference call with reporters set up by the Democratic National Committee.

“What we’ve seen with Donald Trump is that there is now a new phenomenon in schools called the ‘Trump Effect,'” Weingarten said. “It will take decades to overcome the way Donald Trump speaks and promotes violence, xenophobia and racism. This is creating bullying environments in schools across the country.”

“As teachers, we’re going to have to work harder to help an entire generation of children recover from the hateful rhetoric that Trump has aimed at immigrants, Muslims and Black Lives Matter protestors,” she added.

These idiots are in charge of educating our children?

Randi’s a complete disgrace. What she’s done to the NY Public School system is a crime.

Maybe it’s a good sign that the Left is getting back to the old, “It’s Bush’s fault” days.

Only now it’s Trump.
