It's also happening in areas where education HASN'T been defended or dismantled. It's happening in areas that aren't Republican controlled too.
Fuck MAGA with a moldy pine tree but blaming this problem solely on them means it can't be solved because whatever is happening isn't being caused by them.
Which locations weren't impacted by the first trump administration's education department or no child left behind?
I never said it was solely on them, but saying that has no bearing on it is ridiculous as well.
