ABC’s Hostin: ‘Republicans Are Intentionally Dumbing Down Our Electorate’ to Remain in Power
Breitbart ^ | 01/08/2024 | Pam Key

Posted on 01/08/2024 5:52:15 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

ABC legal analyst Sunny Hostin told her co-hosts Monday on “The View” that Republicans were “intentionally dumbing down our electorate” to remain in power.

Hostin said, “What we’re seeing by the Republican Party, and I give it to them, we’re seeing a long game. We’re seeing that they are dismantling or attempting to dismantle institutions. All of a sudden, the most elite colleges and universities in the world, which, by the way, they all went to, everybody on the Supreme Court went there, Elise Stefanik went there, all the congresspeople went there, Ted Cruz went there. Those schools are not good enough anymore, I think, because now people that don’t look like them were getting in. Affirmative action, no more, why? So that people that don’t look like them don’t get in. Women don’t have reproductive rights anymore over their own bodies. Why? So they can have power over women. Why is French and, Mandarin and Spanish being taken away from our public schools? So that we can be a monolingual society and can’t compete globally.”

That is classic projection.

Some people are so deluded. It’s breathtaking the kind of deception Satan can inflict on some people, and even more breathtaking when they accept it.

Dumb and Dumber the political propaganda is bad from both sides.

If you think instead of taking the BS in you realize they all spend money and get kickbacks.

Mike Johnson wants more for Ukraine defense contractors make money and contribute to the Mike Johnson’s IMHO.

The Fakegressive Democrats don’t want to admit they put business first as well.

The Dems let the train derail in Ohio last year because they are protecting the railroad industry from accountability led by Pete the Transportation Secretary.

No worries, the only language being taken away in our schools is English.

Democrats are teaching their voters that men can have babies, an insurrection or coup can be achieved by an unarmed mob, the government has an unlimited supply of money, electricity comes from walls, any form of carbon is poison, and a person’s sex is fluid and can change from hour to hour. But Republicans are dumbing down their base. Yeah, ok.

Well, with all due respect to Ms. Hostin, law schools are responsible for more ‘dumbing down’ of society than any political party or any other influence or profession. The way too many law schools are these days, most insects could get a degree. Nonetheless, those who go to law school still think they are ‘special’ and definitively more knowledgeable than the rest of the populace. That is a tragic joke, and is a belief system that is pushing us to disaster.

Further, if you add the disgusting lack of ethics or morality that too many lawyers have, you have created a group that causes enormous suffering.

Talk about projections Dumb-0-Crats are the ones attempting to dismantle our institutions and destroy our country.

And is Hostin saying that minorities can only get into elite colleges through affirmative action??? Am I getting this right?

Right. For years the Dem leadninThe famous lowering of quality in school systems includes such things as:
////////////////////////
Even more than most labor unions, they have little use for Republicans, giving Democrats at least 94 percent of the funds they contributed to candidates and parties since as far back as 1990, where our data begins.From Open Secrets.

//////////////////////////////////////////
At the national level, the NEA lobbies the United States Congress and federal agencies and is active in the nominating process for Democratic candidates.

Teachers No Longer Have to Be Literate
by Daniella J. Greenbaum
The New York State Board of Regents, which supervises public education, has decided it will no longer be necessary for would-be teachers to pass an Academic Literacy Skills Test. The reason? The test was producing racially disparate results: Only 41 percent of black candidates and 46 percent of Hispanic candidates had passed the exam on their first attempt, compared to 64 percent of white candidates.

There have been cries of racism for YEARS over the teacher’s literacy test results.

They never told what the actual breakdown was, but it was not hard to figure out when the *racism* screeching began.

It’s how they tell the world about what they’re doing, accusing their opposition of what exactly their active and actual intentions are. They’re so transparent.

Noo Sunny, I really do not think the Republicans are that smart or maybe afraid of their Democrat masters.
Or Both

How could Republicans do that, even if the wanted to?

The schools are controlled by Democrats.
