that encouraging youth to look to a better future for themselves can do....but how it is for 'problematic' youth. A dog whistle for their base. After all if a program like this is left unsullied some in the base may like the idea of giving hope to people the GOP requires them to hate. And, to the GOP, that interconnectedness must be stopped any way possible. Otherwise the base may get happy with belonging to a great country lead by a great president that thinks about the potential of all its kids. The base must be kept in hate.
