School officials in Southern California are investigating an incident involving a high school teacher who lashed out at a student for wearing a MAGA hat and referred to Christians as a “bunch of losers” in a video that emerged in the days after former President Donald Trump was elected to a second term.
Video of the rant initially went viral Sunday. A male teacher, later identified as Chino Valley High School English teacher and girls’ golf coach Clyde Colinco, is heard harassing a student for wearing a Trump hat before demanding he leave the classroom.
The teacher is heard saying, “A child molester, huh? Vote for that freaking rapist. I have a daughter, three nieces, and he’d rape them, and people are voting for him. Christians are voting for him, bunch of losers. Fake Christians.”
He then becomes increasingly agitated and calls Trump a “freaking rapist.”
“Just do the warm-up, I’m pissed. People voting for a freaking rapist, and I’m pissed off,” he says. “I don’t care, fire the Hell out of me. I’m fighting for my daughter, my nieces, their rights.”
After yelling at the student to go back to his seat, he calls for security: “Can you send security up? I have a boy who has a Trump hat on, and I’m not going to tolerate it today. … Tell [Principal John] Miller, ‘I should have the right to vote for a rapist and a child molester,’ go for it. I don’t give a F!”
Finally, the teacher orders the student to leave the classroom for wearing a “freaking rapist hat.”
“Tell [Principal] Miller that you’re allowed to wear a freaking rapist hat. Go for it! Tell your mom. Get out of my class. You can’t take a teacher that stands up for girls’ rights.”
When someone asks what’s wrong with him, the teacher replies, “Excuse me! What’s wrong with me?? Trump. The rapist. They just vote for him to get rid of the 20 million immigrants. You know who should get out? You know who owns this land? Native Americans. He should leave.”
