Preschool teacher axed after complaining about Trump surviving latest assassination attempt

An Ohio preschool teacher was axed after a twisted TikTok showed her apparently fuming over President Trump surviving Saturday’s shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

Corinne Baum, a teacher at BrightPath Bridgetown Child Care Center in Cincinnati, was sacked Monday after she seemingly aired her frustration over the president walking away unscathed from a third assassination attempt in a now-deleted video that exploded online.

“There’s a few creators on here saying like Friday or yesterday could have been the day,” Baum said in the 20-second clip, WXIX reported.

“And then I wake up to that news, but not THAT news,” she said with a sigh, adding, “We’re going to have to pay really close attention to what they’re actually trying to distract us from.”

A BrightPath spokesperson told The Post the company doesn’t tolerate calls for violence.

“Our organization does not tolerate and explicitly condemns any calls for violence,” the child center said in a statement Tuesday.

“The comments made online by this individual are deeply inconsistent with our values. The individual in question has been terminated.”

Accused gunman Cole Allen, 31, was arrested after allegedly storming through a security checkpoint at the Washington Hilton in a crazed bid to kill Trump and other top administration officials during the glitzy annual gala Saturday night, according to police and officials.

The CalTech grad, a teacher in California, was quickly taken down by Secret Service agents outside the ballroom before the president and his cabinet were dramatically evacuated, with the dinner, meant to toast the Washington press corps, postponed.

Allen allegedly sent an unhinged anti-Trump manifesto to his family just 10 minutes before unleashing his fury — branding himself as the “Friendly Federal Assassin” and claiming he was targeting top Republican officials.

He was charged with attempted assassination of the president, transportation of a firearm across state lines to commit a felony, and discharging a gun and faces life in prison if convicted on the top offense.

Baum’s firing comes as Wisconsin social studies teacher Patrick Meyer was placed on administrative leave after complaining on X he was “not impressed” by the latest attack on Trump’s life – raging society needs to “make Americans great assassins again.”

“I am not impressed with recent presidential assassins,” the Kaukauna High School teacher raged Sunday in the now-deleted post.

“It’s f—ing embarrassing! Booth, Guiteau, Czolgosz, Oswald must all be spinning in their graves! MAGAA (make Americans great assassins again)! Sad!”
