Why Trump Was the Candidate for “Educational Freedom”

In July, just a few days after President Joe Biden ended his re-election bid, the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) President Randi Weingarten boasted that the union under her charge was the first to endorse Kamala Harris for president. Weingarten pledged: “The AFT has 1.8 million members—including 450,000 in battleground states. Between now and Election Day, we’re going to give our all to make sure our voices are heard and our members are mobilized. Because when we fight, we win.” No question, Weingarten is a fighter. She fought to keep schools closed, which spanned three school years in some states.

Democrats Are Pro-Choice — But Not When It Comes to Schools

Clearly, the Democratic Party is all about the right to choose — to be clear, to choose an abortion that ends the life of an unborn child. However, when it comes to the right for parents to choose K-12 education for a child, that is not a freedom the party's leaders care about — even those who attended a private school themselves or sent their children to a private school.
