Can somebody explain to me the impacts of dismantling the Department of Education?

There are reports that the Trump is preparing to sign another EO abolishing the Department of Education. Now I think this is obviously a stupid idea, but how on earth would they think this wouldn’t cause yet another backlash?

How many millions of kids will now be without access to education?

How many unemployed teachers?

How about the parents that rely on schools??

A friend of mine who’s MAGA claims this will motivate parents to homeschool their kids. I’m like thinking how on earth is that going to suddenly and logistically happen?

Do we have any conservative leaning centrists that can rationalize this?

Maybe it’s a gradual dismantling? Maybe vouchers will be given in return? If Trump is doing this surely he feels confident it will go well.
