    Why the hell would somebody who built her entire early career on persecuting truants build public confidence?

    If the alternative wasn’t Spray-Tan Hitler, I would never have voted to put her one heart attack from the Oval Office.

      I don’t understand your comment. It sounds as if persecuting truants is a bad thing…?

      Edit: I think truant may have a different meaning in my native language. Truhan means a good-for-nothing, no-shame petty person. Let’s see what truant means in English…

      Edit 2: Ah, a school no-show. Yup. Different meaning. And yeah, prosecuting them is stupid.

        It is when it means forcing young people into overcrowded and failing schools…

        Ugh. I don’t want to get re-mad over this.

        Short version: School is bad for you, bad school doubly so, and she’s a proud enforcer of a cruel and broken system.
