Donald Trump Pros And Cons

Below I will lay out my strategy for helping Donald Trump pass the School Choice And Education Opportunity Act.
Despite Donald Trump lacking government experience, he does have the ability to rally people together. In order to get this legislation passed, Donald Trump will need to convince Congress, Outside groups (lobbyists), and the public. Donald Trump does have a few advantages entering his presidency; Republicans hold the majority in the House and the Senate. The President and the Congress being from the same party does help reduce tension, especially when it comes to passing laws. However, Donald Trump’s positions are not traditionally Republican and he may clash with the traditionalists such as Ted Cruz or Mitch McConnell, or Rand Paul …show more content…

Not only does CER advocate for school choice, they also advocate for the creation of more charter schools in the United States. CER partners with think tanks and other organizations such as the Reason Foundation or to help them spread their message regarding school choice and charter schools. Trump needs lobbying groups like CER to help convince Congress that his bill is right. Not only would CER help push legislation in Congress, they would also advocate to the public on behalf of Trump’s …show more content…

Donald Trump’s appointee of Betsy DeVos chairwoman of American Federation for Children, an organization that seeks to help parents find the best schools for their children scares teacher’s unions and supporters of public education. According to the WSJ, DeVos’s opponents claim that she is completely opposed to public education, which is simply not the case. DeVos just advocates for parents and families having a choice of where they send their children to school (Riley 1). Again, I believe where Trump runs into issues when it comes to the public is clarification. If Trump and his advisors were able to clarify and set out a plan to the public, there would be less confusion and less tension. Once Trump makes his positions concrete, a good percentage of the public will be on board with his

In the article “Federal Involvement in the School Choice Movement Should Not Be Rushed”, Nat Malkus expresses that Donald Trump’s budget proposal for enlarging funding towards school choice federally would have a “negative impact on states that are not ready to implement” the type of changes Trump is pushing for. The editorial is greatly explanatory. Malkus explains in great detail the different ways Trump could go about planning his attempt to increase funding towards school choice. Malkus claims that allowing states to customize their own school choice plan will allow the plan to become more efficient, because the states will be able to create “programs to their specific contexts, something Washington can’t do well”. States will be allowed to personalize their budget and find the best plan that works for them, because not all states will benefit from the same programs and areas of funding.

Landing the position of Secretary of Education, DeVos has focused on a single plan to improve education in America. Her plan ties largely into her opinions on school-related topics. She is a major advocate for school of choice. She is also a large supporter of private schools and charter schools. As part of her plan, she thinks that parents should be able to receive vouchers from public funds in order to allow their children to attend the school of their choice.

In addition less educated people means less opportunities to become what they want in life, more or less due to the fact that Betsy DeVos does not support public schools and wants to cut some funding. It's a commonly known fact the majority of children in the United States go to public school making families with less money unable to have their children get an equal chance at education. Usually a common thing some people say is that we should just give her a shot and see what is the worst that can happen but history tends to repeat

January 20th 2017 marked the day that president elect Donald Trump took his oath to office. Perhaps one of the most controversial electoral processes in the history of the United States’ presidency, the possible implications of Donald Trump’s leadership will most likely make this one for the history books. His speech seemed surprisingly reasonable, astonishingly efficient, and very impactful in comparison to what many were expecting from him, because of the negative and possible detrimental image he has created in the minds of many Americans. Regardless, Donald Trump delivered a strong, decisive speech using unifying diction, well directed symbolism and varied syntax. Trump’s primary goal was to identify himself more intricately with the

Schools that are at a disadvantage are in a bad place because of the fact that not everyone in that school will have the opportunity to vote.

During the Obama administration, the Appointee for the department of education did not support for-profit colleges but as for the new appointee she is in favor of it. She believes that nothing is free and does not believe in public education. As for schools k-12, her idea is based on a plan called “tax credit scholarships (Kamenetz).” Under this plan, companies will either balance or cancel out tax responsibility, and will offer scholarships to students so they can attend private schools, but the downside of this plan is that 70% of these scholarships go to religious schools (Kamenetz). DeVos will aim make more of private, virtual, religious, and for-profit schools, and make them beneficial, and will leave it up to the states on how they want to expand.

Originating from a democratic belief that it would better the future members of society. Education Secretary Devos has shown both her support and dislike for Common Core in the past. While under the Bush Administration, she sat by as Jeb Bush and later Barack Obama pushed for Common Core. Years later she is now leading the charge to have Common Core dismissed from the school systems. It is quite clear that Common Core was just another political agenda used to make a person's image look better.

“It’s funny how one little thing can change your perspective on everything.” For young Gary Soto, that one thing was a guacamole-colored jacket. In the memoir, “The Jacket,” author Gary Soto conveys the message of his insecurity, his poverty, and his ultimate self destruction through the use of figurative language. Soto’s clever use of personification, metaphors, and similes clearly illustrates the message that the way you dress influences how you feel about yourself. To emphasize, Gary Soto uses descriptive language to reveal his secret insecurity about his jacket.

Introduction With a recent increase in presidential power and a new presidential cabinet, concerns have began to arise regarding state rights and independence. One of these concerns is school choice in the form of school vouchers. The use of school vouchers has been a state decision, and Texas has always been a school voucher free state. Not only the national government favors private-school voucher legislation (with Betsy DeVos as the new United States Secretary of Education); so does Texas. Texas’ Lieutenant Governor, Dan Patrick, urges the private-school voucher bill (SB 3) to pass the Texas House (as it has already passed the Senate).

Although, many options exist and no matter where you stand on the issue on how to educate our youth or children, all the funding should exist even more so in our public schools especially in the early years pre-k and kindergarten or elementary school students. This is so important because even if people are all for charter schools, private schools or home schools; those special students will eventually have to work and live next to majority of the students who went through public schools and it is very important that the public school kids get the absolute best guidance through their early years. If we do not give them everything we got we will end up with many problems. The problems we will have are not just people who have low reading and math skills but also potentially people who have low self-esteem and have many different mental problems. Public school funding goes beyond simply reading, writing, and math.

“This approach is bad economic policy and bad education policy. An unprecedented federal spending increase for education will not improve economic growth -- and past experience strongly suggests that this plan will not improve American educational performance” (lips 2). Increasing school funding the wring way can cause the economy a lot of money and may lead to huge budget cuts or even jobs lost. There is a lot of public school across America that are underfunded so trying to fund them would cost a lot of money. Increasing school funding is very risky because if the graduation rates don’t go up when students get older they would face the problem of being in debt and won’t know how to pay it off .
