October 21, 2015: BOOM:Trump Reveals First Dept.He’ll Cut as President…Liberals Howl in Horror

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.

However, whether Trump could get actually rid of Common Core, which is his apparent goal, remains to be seen.

As The Daily Caller reporter Blake Neff explained, "While Common Core is promoted indirectly by the Department of Education, it is still adopted individually by state governments, and the federal government does not control it."

Still, it's a very worthwhile goal to consider since many parents are fed-up with Common Core's "one-size-fits-all" approach to education.

Frankly, education is much too important to be mass produced ... and thankfully, most Americans, including Donald Trump, get this.

I mentioned you in post 114 and tried to ping you to it along with the person I was replying too. However, somehow that didn’t go through so I am trying again.

If they do that to the education dept, then they better be ready to say NO UNIONS ARE ALLOWED IN PUBLIC SCHOOLING.

IT’S TIME TO STOP FUNDING THE DEMOCRAT PARTY WITH ALL THESE UNIONS.

EVERYBODY WILL BE SCREAMING OVER THAT .. BUT IT’S GOT TO BE DONE. WE NEED TO STOP ALLOWING THESE “RADICAL” TEACHERS TO SPEW THEIR JUNK .. AND THEN BECAUSE OF THE UNIONS, YOU CANNOT GET RID OF THEM.

Starstruck, YOU SAID...And Trump matches this?

“Titus 1:6-9 If anyone is above reproach, the husband of one wife, and his children are believers and not open to the charge of debauchery or insubordination. For an overseer, as God’s steward, must be above reproach. He must not be arrogant or quick-tempered or a drunkard or violent or greedy for gain, but hospitable, a lover of good, self-controlled, upright, holy, and disciplined. He must hold firm to the trustworthy word as taught, so that he may be able to give instruction in sound doctrine and also to rebuke those who contradict it.”
____________________________________________________________

And ALL humans match these...

“For ALL have sinned, and come short of the glory of God” (Romans 3:23)

“If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He (God) is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him (God) a liar, and His word is not in us.” (1 (John 1:8-10)

Bring back cursive writing. I recently received a thank you card from a graduate of our public schools and the writing was jerky and child-like.

“Cruz is very real. In the audio that has been released of him talking to donors he says almost word for word the same things that he has already said publically. You and Helicondelta need to quit reading your talking points and actually look at the facts.”

___________________________________________________________

Trump is very real. You and all other Trump-haters need to quit reading your talking points, stop trolling Trump threads and actually look at the facts.

I don’t even know you, but you throw your insults at me and expect me not to respond. GROW UP.

And yet he has said he has no reason to ask God for forgiveness? If you are truly a Christian you would know this to be a crock. But I suspect you are not really who you are portraying yourself as being. Now give me some BS verses condemning me. The Bible can be used by Satan as well as those who are believers.

My boy is Cruz. Your boy is Trump. My boy is a conservative since day one. Your boy has changed stripes. I will stick with my boy. When you address him next week be sure to say Mr. Cruz.

Please see post 26. Cruz laid out his plan to cut the Dept. of Education and 4 other agencies on Nov. 10th.

Great! Please see post 25. I laid out my plan to support Cruz but still smile if Trump ends up as our nominee.

And yet you believe God can’t lead him to ask for forgiveness? Then you don’t trust or faith in Almighty God! If you are truly a Christian YOU WOULD PRAY FOR TRUMP - and know what the Bible says to be truth. But I suspect you need to ask for your own sins to be forgiven, and may not really be who you are portraying yourself as being. Now, take your nonsensical, hateful, bitter self and read the Bible - under the illumination of the Holy Spirit! The Bible can be used by those who truly belong to satan as well as those who are believers.

“Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.” (Luke 6:37)

There, fixed it.

Cruz didn’t say I Will either.

Cruz carefully parses words.
