Trump speaks on Education Department cuts

President Donald Trump was asked about the cuts coming to the Department of Education during a sit-down meeting with Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin in the Oval Office. "When we cut, we want to cut the people who aren't working or who aren't doing a good job," Trump said. Trump's remarks come after reports that half of the Education Department workforce will be terminated. "We want education to be moved back where the states run education, where the parents of the children will run education, where governors who are doing a very good job will run education," Trump added.
