It's the conflation of education with job training that is pushing America down the drain and Trump is only one consequence of it.

The purpose of education is not to prepare for jobs, but to produce knowledgeable, reasoning, civilized, compassionate human beings capable of critical, independent thinking, which is what America most needs, not ignorant coders who can be manipulated to blindly program everything in sight, totally unaware of the inhuman, oppressive and exploitative implications.
