Hollywood A-lister Matt Damon has been in the news a lot recently, but not because he’s been in any good movies.
Quite the contrary.
Like many liberal Hollywood snowflakes, Damon’s been making headlines for being a loudmouth on popular left-wing issues.
In particular Trump, who Damon has alternatively bashed and acknowledged is our president, whether we like it or not.
But this time around, Damon’s grabbing attention for his incredibly hypocritical position regarding public schooling in America.
The Daily Caller reported:
Filthy rich actor Matt Damon continues his quest to limit school choice for regular Americans with kids trapped in public schools. Strangely, however, Damon also continues to choose not to send any of his four children to the schools he loves so much.
Damon was in Boston last week for a screening of the documentary “Backpack Full of Cash,” reports The Boston Globe.
He narrated the film.
Public schools have been “at the forefront of our family and dinner table conversations my entire life,” Damon — who sends his own kids to private schools — told the crowd, according to the Globe.

Again, this from a guy who won’t send his own kids to public schools, even the ones in his posh neighborhood of Pacific Palisades.
This reason for this, of course, is that Damon simply has no choice but to send his own children to fancy-pants private schools. Never mind that average Americans don’t have that luxury when they aren’t satisfied with the public school system.
“Sending our kids in my family to private school was a big, big, big deal. And it was a giant family discussion,” Damon told The Guardian in 2013.
“But it was a circular conversation, really, because ultimately we don’t have a choice. I mean, I pay for a private education and I’m trying to get the one that most matches the public education that I had, but that kind of progressive education no longer exists in the public system. It’s unfair.”

Oh, please.
Could you be any more of a snowflake?
