I didn't vote for Trump but man, this trendy mob mentality of bashing everything under the sun coming from the Oval Office is pathetic. The hypocrisy is totally ridiculous too:

    So you are saying that Dr. Seuss isn't racist?

    Or are you saying that liberals have a monopoly on meaningless rejection of the other party?

    Or just flat out not telling the full story?

    In an open letter published on Horn Book’s website on Tuesday, Phipps Soeiro explained that her school is located city where “yearly per-pupil spending ... is well over $20,000.” The librarian suggested the books would be better off in “underfunded and underprivileged communities that continue to be marginalized and maligned by policies put in place by Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos.”

    ″[My] school doesn’t have a NEED for these books,” Phipps Soeiro wrote.

    #1) If you read the article, it is against district policy to use her employment for political purposes

    #2) She is just a librarian and rejecting a donation from the Oval Office was not her decision to make....which also pertains to #3

    #3) She could have privately appealed to her Principal or District and requested to mail the books to a needier school

    #4) She was happily wearing a Dr. Seuss costume in a picture earlier this year so how can she be for and against Dr. Seuss?

    Again, this pathetic woman overstretched in trying to virtue-signal and it backfired horribly (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtue_signalling)

    I'm glad you agree that Dr Seuss is racist.

    I'm not saying it is or isn't (don't really remember the books) but even if he / it is, wearing a a Dr. Seuss costume a few months earlier is a tacit endorsement. And then she bashes donated books later? Indefensible and the height of hypocrisy.

    Care to address my other points of her pathetic attempt at virtue signalling?

    I agree people making a stand because they don't like a politician is FS. That being said, your article is shit. And it's missing a large part of the story.

    This Librarian is on a HondoFS level of intelligence complaining about Dr Seuss being racist while having pictures of herself dressed up and reading Dr Seuss to kids.

    And HondoFS...Dr Seuss was racist enough that Michelle Obama use to go around the country reading it to kids for 8 years.
