Maybe if we had an education leader that was able to help the state move upwards from 49th place in education, we could have an economy that would make zeroing out the state income tax possible. But, no. We got this idiot.

Reporters: What does this have to do with education?
Walters: "If we are not responsive to taxpayers, we're not responsive to kids... we'll only spend money on necessities." (2/3)

Reporter @dylantbrown asks why voters should listen to Walters when Oklahoma is 49th in education, and Walters responds by saying KFOR is fake and "is always wrong." Here is some background on the budget. (3/3)

👎 to Walter's comment. This is why on another thread our state is considered a** backwards.

Years ago while on vacation I mentioned I lived in Oklahoma and was told "Oh you poor thing."
