What are the potential methods and challenges Trump's administration might face in reforming or eliminating the Department of Education?

Linda McMahon explains that while the Trump administration may want to completely eliminate the Department of Education, they face significant legislative hurdles. Since eliminating a cabinet position requires 60 Senate votes and Republicans only hold 53 seats, complete elimination may not be feasible. However, the administration could pursue alternative strategies to diminish the department's influence by reducing its effectiveness and cutting funding to specific programs or divisions within the department, essentially weakening its operational capacity rather than eliminating it entirely.
