Do you think a carnival act like Linda McMahon was the right choice to lead the Department of Education?

Was it the right choice to put former WWE owner Linda McMahon in charge of the DoE when she had no background in education, especially given her frequent gaffes like being spell checked by Harvard and calling AI as A1 like the steak sauce. I suppose if her only role is to gut and destroy the DoE then maybe her presence will do that.

[Ironic_Method]

No, but to be fair everyone we put in charge if the DoE has been terrible. This is just yet another terrible choice.

I think she was not the right choice.

[AI Opinion]

Selecting leaders for critical positions like the Department of Education involves evaluating their qualifications and alignment with the department's goals. The choice of Linda McMahon, primarily known for her business acumen with WWE and political background, might raise concerns about her fit due to the lack of educational experience. Leadership in education typically benefits from expertise and understanding of educational policies and methodologies. However, political appointments sometimes prioritize broader skill sets or strategic directions. It's crucial to ensure that leadership decisions support the department's mission to enhance educational outcomes for all.

leaders of education could be anybody and I would still never let schools interfere with the education of our little ones...

before school... we're the responsible adults in our place

[Iron_Man]

I’m not familiar with her educational background what she actually did she was just the wife of Vince McMahon, which he formally owned the WWE so I don’t know her true capabilities if she’s qualified or not

[Jersey2]

DoE needs to be shut down and the money sent to the states. And don’t get me started with Biden’s picks.

You mean besides being serving on the Board of Education in Connecticut and the Sec of the Small Business Association in 2016.

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

She wasn't qualified then either.

[exitseven]

She did the job, and is not in the tank for the teachers union. I suppose that only Harvard grads shole get this job/?

[Ez-Bri-Z_v2]

Someone who was actually an educator at one point might be nice.

@Ez-Bri-Z_v2 She is an upgrade from what we had. Test scores among American students have been in decline for 20 years. They fell odd a cliff during covid. We lost a whole generation of students. The status quo does not work. The teachers union does not have students as their priority. Bold programs like school choice and real standards for graduation need to be implemented. There should not be a monopoly on education.
Linda McMahon has real world experience and experience in government. she has limited classroom exposure but experience in many other things. She knows how the real world works and has not been insulated in academia,.
