My teacher is anti-Trump

The teacher I have for social studies is very bias when it comes to politics. He talked about Trump and impeachment and stuff and the way he worded stuff was very anti-Trump and anti republicans even if he didn't necessarily say anything directly about it

But to sum things up

Republicans = evil and only cares about money and power
Democrats = nice people, cares about the public and wants to make sure everyone is happy

It's like.... okkkk... cool I guess?

It's especially frustrating when they're teaching teenagers or young adults. They're already very impressionable so let's not have the teachers try to influence their own students to have the same political views as they do  that's not their job

If it's a teacher in a different country in the US I don't see an issue at all it's not like Kent-Roger from .. random place.. ehh.. Karasjok is going to vote for a republican or even Trump. Kent-Roger is more likely to vote on parties in his respective country, Norway.

So?? The teacher shouldn't influence their students into thinking negatively about Trump or republicans (of course not the other way around either)

Doesn't matter if they're a US citizens or not, it's still wrong

Err okay so.. no. I disagree at a fundamental level here, I highly doubt you would find it questionable if said teacher criticised Putin for being pretty much a dictator, the leaders of China and North Korea (for obvious reasons), the leader of Venezuela (also obvious reasons) and the list goes on. Furthermore, the politics of today is the history of tomorrow. Few, if any, would accept a teacher to refuse to talk about former politics that turned out to be incredibly horrible at a lot of levels, obvious example: Hitler. 
Now, maybe you wouldn't want to compare Trump to Hitler, however there are some parallels, and also some significant differences such as Hitler actually being skilled charismatically - thus being a more appealing character for people in need, whereas Trump is in essence a man child who moans and complain when things doesn't go his way. The detention camps in the US can be compared to the concentration camps of Nazi Germany. How on earth can anyone find it even remotely acceptable to be like yeah but they're illegal immigrants so naturally we should keep them in literal camps and separate children from their parents lmao great idea!!

that's true  
a lot of teachers have this bias and a lot of history classes cover up things their own country did, and hold a bias towards it. they speak shit about all the countries did in the past but oh no!! our country bless, bless [country]

ok that went off track but i get your point
idk how to 
formulate this bye

I mean.. no. It's mostly the triumphant that writes history the first time, I doubt that Germany is like "oh everyone was wrong we totally did the right thing" or that the Japanese learn that ofc it's okay to occupy Asia and treat others like animals. It depends, obviously. 
What bothers me the most is when insignificant countries are like ah yes what we did was important, like no, it wasn't. It was completely irrelevant if some kind of knob from Oslo fought against the Germans because ultimately it was the Soviets that fought the Germans off in Norway so there's that.

no no, i meant that they cover up history. that some things are left unsaid, i've only noticed this in the swedish and american education though (the american... i'm not too sure how it went, but i saw a lot of people talk about it online so i'll take their word for it until i'm proven otherwise).
there are a lot of things i wasn't aware of because it was just left unsaid. like oh sweden is so great, so peaceful! not really. we had slaves, we imported them. they were here too. just not in millions. 
not sure how the serbian system is, but.. yes.
