In a rambling video message, Trump threatened to upend local juvenile justice systems around the country. The result could send more Black boys to prison.

His best days, as such they were, are behind him.

His latest scheme? In a rambling video message, he threatened to deploy the full power of the Departments of Justice and Education to upend local juvenile justice systems around the country. In his words, he wants to “end the leftist takeover of school discipline and juvenile justice” and send the federal government to oversee discipline in schools.If Trump has his way—and surely he will not—the DOJ and DOE will take over student discipline.

The very idea of federalizing school discipline is absurd—not to mention unconstitutional—and, quite frankly, racist. But what can we expect from a man who attempted to trade arms for dirt on his political adversaries? Embracing the lunatic fringes, he will go down as the only sitting U.S. president in our nation’s history to foment an armed insurrection. But, just when you thought he couldn’t stoop any lower, he hollowed out a canyon and dove in head-first.

Let it be said that Trump never really wanted the job. In 2016, as he descended that gold-toned escalator, it was clear that he was launching another gambit to advance his personal brand. After all, there had been steaks, airlines, television shows and a bevy of other get-rich-quick schemes designed to line his Trump-branded pockets. So why not a presidency?

In practice, his latest idea wouldn’t just speed the school-to-prison pipeline. It would be a bullet train.
