I don't care how they learn critical thinking, so long as they learn it.

But very few are going to learn much of it outside of a classroom.

And, incredible as it may seem to others, it is now unusual in the U.S. for students to learn civics before college.

Thus the widespread belief - propounded by the President of the United States - that Article 2 of the Constitution gives him the "right to do anything" he wants.

It doesn't, but tens of millions seem not to care that he thinks that way.

Meanwhile, he's talking about declaring martial law to "re-run" the election in swing states till we get it right.

And disgraced-but-pardoned General Michael Flynn is urging him to do it.
