Former President Donald Trump promised on Tuesday to take immediate action to punish schools that teach Critical Race Theory (CRT) and push “transgender insanity” if he wins a second term in the White House.
Trump spoke to a crowd of supporters in Racine, Wisconsin, less than a month before he is set to be nominated at the Republican National Convention in nearby Milwaukee. During his speech in Racine, Trump blasted “inappropriate” content being taught to children and promised to pull funding from schools that promote leftist racial and gender theories.
“On day one, I will sign a new executive order to cut federal funding of any school pushing Critical Race Theory, transgender insanity, and other inappropriate racial, sexual, or political onto the lives of our children,” the former president said to the applause of the crowd.
PRESIDENT TRUMP: On Day One, I will sign a new executive order to cut federal funding for any school pushing Critical Race Theory, transgender insanity, and other inappropriate racial, sexual, or political content on our children.
