Homeschooling probably won't be legal for much longer, for the exact reasons you gave. You will be demonized as a fundie racist sexist white supremacist and probably have your kids forcibly taken from you for trying.

Trump is 100% assured to win. The left needs a bogeyman to fight against.
Statistically, home-schooled children are more successful in the workplace than otherwise. I was surprised when I learned this because I was brought up with the idea that home-schooling was the preserve of cults. But I recently discovered that two of the brightest and most well-adjusted colleagues I work with are the product of home-schooling and I am also friends with someone who homeschools and her children seem to have done nothing but benefit from it. They're certainly well-taught.
I would love to get together with other parents and run a small informal "school" made up of the parents and relatives - there's certainly enough educational expertise to do so. A small group of 8-12 kids being informally taught together could work very well in a way something like: "hey, will you take Paul, Susie and Mike next week and run them through your history lessons? I'll do Maths with the rest. And lets have Peter in with mine for a few of those days even though he did it before, because he didn't quite get it last time."
