A Florida high school student elected class president was disqualified and given detention after the principal accused him of harassing an opponent in a pre-election speech that invoked President Trump’s proposed border wall. In the 90-second speech, J.P. accused another candidate of representing a rival school and proposed that “we build a wall” between the two schools and have the other school pay for it. “The insulting language in this speech was of a nature that created a situation of public humiliation and therefore violated school district rules pertaining to harassment.”J.P. says he wasn’t trying to harass anyone. “I never thought the speech would ever evolve in what it has become, really,” he said on "Fox & Friends." The foundation sent a letter to the school district stating that the disqualification violated JP’s constitutional rights and requesting that he be declared class president, according to the station.
