Former President Donald Trump berated Democrats and the left for pushing critical race theory education during a speech on Saturday, urging Republicans at every level of government to fight the radical ideology.
Trump criticized the Biden administration for trying to “indoctrinate America’s schoolchildren with poisonous and divisive left-wing doctrine” by pushing critical race theory.
He described the effort as “the exact opposite of the American belief that we are all created equal in the holy image of God.”
Trump spoke about critical race theory during a speech to North Carolina Republicans on Saturday, updating his usual campaign speech to focus on the controversial topic.
Trump praised North Carolina State House Republicans for passing limits on the use of critical race theory in schools, and called for all Republicans to do the same.
“Republicans at every level should move to immediately ban critical race theory in schools, and we should ban it in workplaces, we should ban it in our states, and we should ban in the federal government. And it should be done immediately,” Trump said.
The former president’s comments criticizing critical race theory earned wild cheers and applause from the audience.
He also used the threat of critical race theory to promote the idea of school choice:
If government-run schools are going to indoctrinate children with radical ideas, Republicans must immediately pass legislation to empower every parent in America to opt-out of the insanity and send their child to the public-private charter or religious school of their choice.
Trump criticized the “socialist Democrats” for pushing their radical ideology into schools.
“They slander our country, disparage our founding, divide our children,” he said.

When the Republicans take over the House in 2022. They should withhold all education funding to states that do not explicitly ban CRT.
Communist reeducation threat
Democrats will die in 2022 holding up the CRT banner. It is the issue that everyone hates.
What's stopping them from doing that now?
p
It’s tax dollars that are paying for this leftist propaganda. The best solution is to take Government out of the education business completely. Have parents pay for their own kids education like any other product or service.
That is never going to happen.
Have parents pay for their own kids education like any other product or service.
Nobody is forcing people to send their kids to public school. Private schools and home schooling have always been an alternative open to any parent that chooses to use it.
States could Revoke the Corporate Charter and forbid them from doing business in thier State if they Have a Racist Program like CRT, and they could DO IT NOW!!
CRT is the KKK of our time: racist, violent, and shameful.
DeSantis banned it in Florida Public Schools - other states need to follow suit.
