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.

Far be it from me to challenge the fruit of this intellectual cornucopia here but I can think of one Trump Effect it would be awfully nice to hear: "You're fired!"

Not educating. Indoctrinating. And they are doing a good job of it too.

Bullying began last June when Trump announced. Never, ever existed before, just couldn’t have!

Trump needs to do scale back or do away with the Department of Education. Put school authority back in the hands of the locals.

Teachers would have to answer to their community when they said stupid things like this.

Absolute proof that liberalism is a mental illness! These people are total lunatics.

There is a male elementary school teacher I know who is giddy 24 x 7 x 365 about his fondness for Hillary Clinton on social media.
He is such an unhinged leftwinger that he in undoubtedly teaching those poor kids to be socialists.
If a kid arrived in class with a Trump shirt he would turn his back while other students were encouraged to hit the other child for "straying" from his directives.
