McMahon’s Education Lie: Disqualifying or Just Another Day in Trump’s America?
Linda McMahon, President-elect Trump’s nominee for Secretary of Education, faces criticism for falsely claiming to possess an education degree on a 2009 questionnaire. This misrepresentation, first reported in 2010, has been deemed “disqualifying” by former federal prosecutor Joyce Vance. McMahon’s limited educational experience and the discrepancy have prompted concerns regarding her suitability for the position. While McMahon’s spokesperson claims the issue was resolved years ago, the controversy adds to scrutiny surrounding her nomination.
