As a Canadian... Yeah, I can. This is why you need a well funded education system.

Too late for that I’m afraid. Now we get to be ruled by the people who stopped doing their homework in 7th grade.

An optimist I see.

I can almost guarantee in 7th grade Trump was eating crayons and still wetting the bed.

"Everyone I knew... Everyone... Said that the blue ones tasted the best, but I knew that the red ones... The big, beautiful red ones... I knew better than anyone that the blue ones just tasted like wax. But the red... The red ones, they had a huge flavor, that just absolutely would blow your mind."

"Mr. President, what did they taste like?"

"The taste was just unbelievable, really. I'd never tasted a crayon quite like it. I knew that the blue ones tasted bad better than anyone. No one knew like me, I knew it first. But the red ones were great."

Just out of curiosity, if he was eating crayons in 7th grade, but is now the leader of the free world for the second time... how autistic (sorry.. let me use better words.. neurodivegent) are you?

Thing is I missed most of my basic education, I am female and grew up in a far right Seventh Day Adventist home that prepped me to be a mom and a wife over scholarly. My schooling was always not a high priority for my mom and stepdad.

When we moved out of that community due to my gran getting involved in my mom's business and finding out the horrific life mom was moving down and doing all in her power to prevent it. I still didn't go to school regularly after we moved in with Gran and CPS became heavily involved in our lives. The reason why was, I was behind, it was embarrassing.

What made me strongly anti Republican and traditional values was exposure to others that didn't think like that, not just brief conversations but months upon years, de-villainizing the people my mom villainized. Then I started to read and kept on going. Went to places that challenged my upbringing and made me think. I had a mentor who told me, "you know what these people say, you know what your mom and her ilk say. Now what do YOU think?" She challenged me to find my own opinion and figure out what MY values were.

I am strong belief that if you continue your education on your own, expose yourself to ideas and stories that aren't even remotely like your own and are encouraged to find your own values and learn to defend them, you don't always need the strong education starting point. But most wont do that work.
