What is the opinion of the author on the current political situation and attitudes towards education and government under President Trump?
Yeah, Putrumpkins don't get that. According to them, there's no value in studying things like history. And anyway, Putrumpkin is the New Messiah. In their Bizzaro World forward is backward, up is down, right is left, stupid is smart, our enemies are our friends, pathologically lying oligarchical billionaires personify the "regular blue collar guy," putting "the little guy's" welfare ahead of their own and draining the swamp means rampant nepotism and favoritism, filling it up with more self-centered billionaires, corrupt institutional politicians and lobbiests. And these are the people who whined about no one listening to what they wanted. Revenge legislation all the way. You can't fix stupid.
