Fox Nation/screen grab
Former President Donald Trump asserted that the current U.S. education system was "mostly transgender" instead of "reading, writing, arithmetic."
During an interview on Fox Nation with host Kellyanne Conway, Trump defended his plan to disband the U.S. Department of Education.
"We're going to move education back to the states where they can run their educational programs, and they'll do great," he promised. "And you take states like Iowa and Idaho and so many, they'll have great education."
"But we have to get out of this Washington thing. Half the buildings in Washington are occupied by education," he continued. "And you'll have to get through it. But we're going to move it back to the states so that all these states, Indiana, you know, the states that are really well run, they're going to have phenomenal education."
"We'll have like one person and a secretary sitting there to make sure they have English."
Trump then complained about the current school curriculum.
"We want reading, writing and arithmetic," he said. "Right now, you have mostly transgender. Everything's transgender."
"Some of these school programs I looked at the other night, they're destroying our country," the former president added. "So education is exciting."
