Hmm - not a fan of Trump's dictatorial actions, and don't know enough about the US Education system and the ministries role in a deeply divided country. Considering however that the US system produced a mongrel like Trump as its best man, it clearly can't be good, and given that Trumps clientele are the dumb and the uneducated people, it is no surprise that he tries to work hard to increase his voterbase.

If however the US Education ministry is similarly (or still more) useless than the Ministry of Education in NZ (speaking as a parent and a former member of a board of trustees), he actually might have unintentionally done the country a service. NZ schools clearly would run better and have more time to produce good outcomes, if they wouldn't be constantly hold back by a hapless MoE.

Better use the money saved to pay teachers and educate children.
