Republicans on RW media have openly hated and demeaned teachers for over 20 years (I remember Limbaugh was always hammering on teachers). One would think educated people would have a little more sense, supporting education was what got Andy Beshear barely elected for his first term over a well-known crook. Red States have people with such short memories, probably because of their preachers. (I am a Kentuckian, so I am not criticizing people I haven't been around my whole life). Yes, FAFO.
