    This is Trump's education policy.

    The main policy planks include:

    Slashing federal funding for "any school or program pushing critical race theory, gender ideology or other inappropriate racial, sexual or political content onto our children."
    Directing federal agencies to "open civil rights investigations into any school district that has engaged in race-based discrimination. That includes discrimination against Asian Americans."
    "Create a new credentialing body that will be the gold standard anywhere in the world to certify teachers who embrace patriotic values support our way of life and understand that their job is not to indoctrinate children"
    Fire Department of Education employees deemed "radicals, zealots and Marxists"
    Banning transgender students who identify as girls from participating in girls sports
    And he tells schools he'll give them "massive funding preferences and favorable treatment" if they:

    Abolish teacher tenure at the K-12 level
    Cut school administrators
    Adopt a parents' bill of rights that includes school choice and "curriculum transparency"
    And allow parents to directly elect school principals.

    So what do you think? Is Trump's education policy likely to make things better or worse?
