Mess guys help. My teacher hates Hillary. He fed my class false info about her losing 7/8 prediction polls for NY. He always calls her a hag and refers to her as a "you-know-what."

What should I do?

And this is off-topic but Tori Spelling is ugly wtf how is she a model

Sleep with him, then get him fired.

I'm doing the reverse in my own class I was teaching the death penalty on Monday to prepare for our class debate, and one of my students Tristan was like, "I think it should be illegal at the state level, but the government should be able to use it on like, terrorists." And I was like, "Oh, so you're a Hen?" And he got mad and was like, "No! I support Bernie!" But for the rest of class I kept referencing Hillary's stance as "Hillary and Tristan's stance." He was so annoyed

It's so dumb too because I want to say something, but there are a lot of people in my class who are feeding blind devotion to Bernie. And my teacher just insults Hillary every day, and finds a way to. He's our government teacher, so that's why the topic comes up very often.

In fact, most schools disallow this.

The only time this happened in any of my classes was when we were talking about politics as part of a class discussion in my American Studies class. My professor kinda hinted at supporting Bernie, she knew Bernie's position on an issue but not Hillary's. Definitely not hostile, just lack of information.

The entire class despised Trump though

It's tacky. People shouldn't discuss politics in the workplace and the classroom is the teacher's workplace. Use your platform to educate in a fair, unbiased manner.

LMAO.

Why did you say you were hanging out with that one guy later on tonight? What event?

[feelslikeadream]

I talk about politics ALL THE TIME in my class (Rhetoric) because it's so relevant, but I don't reveal who I support. For our class session about the media misquoting people, I spent most of the class defending Trump (The only person I never talk about is Kasich, so I guess they know I'm not voting for him. Oops.)

I'm not seeing him IRL. I said I would have nightmares about him because he is seriously the worst

Clock ha!

Also, you're a teacher? That's pretty cool, didn't expect an ATRLer to be a teacher. I'm not sure if I could ever teach. The pay is too low in secondary, little kids annoy me, and I have a fear of public speaking (likely fixable).

The hardcore BernieBros were never going to vote for Hillary anyways. The rest will fall in line because of Trump.

That's being a little too optimistic. It's an ideological fight this time around and I don't really see Bernie doing much to get his supporters to support Clinton. I think he's looking to set the ground for the future, which was likely the plan from the start - win or lose.

She has to find a way to please that part of the party. Not necessarily by bringing Bernie in but by changing her views on big money and bringing someone in like Elizabeth Warren for credibility, whether the bots like it nor not.

Paul Ryan is never going to get them where they need to go, with how conservative he is. They're not gonna suddenly change their immigration and social platforms under his guidance, like they so badly need to do to stay relevant in presidential politics.

The party is going to be destroyed this November. There's a reason they're not behind Trump and there's a reason they don't really like Cruz either.

They know they can't continue to run on anti-immgration, anti-gay rhetoric. They'll eventually get there and Hillary's unfavorables are so high that one moderate republican and it'll be a problem for her in 2020. Not to mention, that'll be 12 years of democratic rule and people will be looking for a change. Not to mention, Hillary likely won't be able to get much accomplished with the gridlock in Washington.

I'm not sure how it is in high school but I'm pretty sure most of my professors dragged Cruz and Trump more times than once.

I'm just a lowly TA I'm currently in grad school, so I take my own classes and also teach two sections of Rhetoric, a course that all undergrads have to take. Fortunately, I have complete control over the class (I make the syllabus, assignments, lesson plans, etc.), so I've been able to make my class about media/pop culture, meaning I bring in television, politics, Mariah, etc. And my "pay" is much lower than a secondary school teacher, so I feel you on the underpaid argument!

Sorry, I worded my comment poorly. I meant discussing politics when it's not relevant and blatantly choosing an alignment or candidate. What you're doing is great.

I'll say this. Sanders needs to stop going negative against Hillary. Keep the message going but start unifying.

What the duck? He should have been more negative and gone on the attack from the beginning. He might have had a chance then. It's too late now. In fact, it's always been too late for him since the Democrats decided a long time ago they were going to force Hillary on us.

dd not Mariah, serving Bey course teas

I wouldn't mind being a TA if it wasn't for the fact I've struggled a bit in college. High school didn't properly prepare me for college.
