'President Donald Trump reminded Democratic lawmakers who attempted to
force their way into the Department of Education that American students' proficiency and test scores continue to be on a stark decline at a
Friday press conference.

A crowd of Democrats, most notably Democratic California Rep. Maxine
Waters, raged at a security guard in front of the department building
Friday morning after they were denied entry into the premises. Trump
responded, stating that the U.S. pours billions of dollars into the
public education system in return for very little results as students'
test scores in core subjects have continued to plummet since the
COVID-19 pandemic.

"I see the same [lawmakers], I see Maxine Waters, a low life. I see all
these people, they don't love our country. We want great education. So
they rank 40 countries in education, we're ranked dead last, but the
good news is we're number one in one category, you know what that is?
Cost per pupil," Trump told Fox News White House correspondent Peter
Doocy. "We spend more per pupil than any other country in the world, you
look at Norway, Denmark, Sweden, various countries all up and down,
Finland, China does very well in education and then look at us. We spend
much more money than they do per pupil or any other way, but we spend
much more money than they do yet we're ranked, this year, Biden's last
year, congratulations Joe, we're ranked dead last.'
