Michigan School Fires Popular Teacher For Saying ‘Trump Is Our President’

A Michigan school district fired a popular high school teacher and coach after he pointed out that "Trump is our president" on social media.

Varsity baseball coach and social studies teacher Justin Kucera said Walled Lake school district officials hauled him into a closed-door meeting after he indicated his support for President Trump's speech to reopen schools. He told the Washington Free Beacon the Walled Lake Western principal and district superintendent gave him an ultimatum: be fired or resign.

I wonder how the other side of the story reads. Would help to see the Tweet that supposedly started it all.

What a great way for this school to teach students the meaning of the 1st Amendment!

And good preparation for college, so they won't make the dangerous mistake of expressing an opinion on campus that might be construed as "conservative."

Are not schools government entities? And does not the First Amendment apply to them?

He says he's "done being silent".

Retweeting Trump, I guess he was throwing down the gauntlet in front of his bosses. Maybe this was one of those "final straw" deals.

I've heard it put this way, makes sense to me: Schools or bars, pick one to be open.

Not in a right to work state, and an employee with a history. This story is Right Wing clickbait, ie. Ray's fake news.
