Michelle Rhee, who rose to national prominence as the controversial chancellor of D.C. Public Schools, appeared on Tuesday to take herself out of the running to become President-elect Donald Trump’s education secretary.

“I have appreciated the opportunity to share my thoughts on education with the PEOTUS,” Rhee’s message said, using an acronym for President-elect of the United States. “Interestingly many colleagues warned me against doing so. They are wrong. Mr. Trump won the election. Our job as Americans is to want him to succeed. Wishing for his failure would be wanting the failure of our millions of American children who desperately need a better education.”

1. Good, she's absolutely terrible.

Corrupt, complete proponent of charter schools and school vouchers, was found committing misdeeds to skew test results, the list goes on. It could hardly get worse than her.

2. I know. All of that probably would have made her a perfect trump minion.

I read that Jerry Falwell Jr. was also being considered.

3. I agree, but watch what you say;

it can ALWAYS get worse.

4. I admit, I would have enjoyed watching the end of her and her husband

in liberal discourse over such an appointment. I think of all the people who sung her praises here...ugh.
