Okay, the lady sucks and bought her way into the role, but come on. What exactly does this solve? These protesters aren't solving anything either by just getting in the way.
Good. The Left should continue to participate in their own destruction. After all, we have the elections of 2018 to consider and we need all this type of stuff we can get in order to insure more GOP wins.
Can they get Elizabeth Warren to join the protestors?

It truly seems as though many of us were wrong to think that this is a civilized country. It is clear now that we probably have many more savages to convert than we ever did.


That said, this particular school should be shut down as of today - and any school where protests that block entrance happen from now on should likewise be shut down immediately for as long as it takes till the protests stop. If the head of the department cannot enter them because of protests, they are obviously not fit for anyone to enter. Let the parents of children who no longer have a school to go to figure out how to deal with the protesters.

LOL, she looked furious .

She is so incompetent she failed to send a scout to avoid being made look stupid.


This is 101 stuff folks, when politicians know they have enemies or that not popular they scout everything to avoid this kind of footage. Her team let her down and she let herself down.

Trump's Whitehouse is an amateur shhet show.

"Betsy Devos BLOCKED from entering DC schools by protesters"

Protesting is fine, blocking is not. Cops should have seen to it that she got in. Anyway, this is why the democrats lost and will continue to lose.

Why did she even want the position? She is almost 60 years old, she comes from one of the wealthiest families in her home state of Michigan.

Why even put yourself through all this?

Many people are looking to retire at this age.

Protests are actually quite effective and they're a Constitutional right. Nobody should be trying to stop them.

She really has no business being in her position but at this point, not much can be done about it. People may as well give her a chance. Blocking her entrance from schools doesn't help much.

She doesn't. She's proven that she only cares about money and power, just like all Republicans.
