GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump says he does not agree with comments from Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia questioning the efficacy of affirmative action.
"I don't like what he said, no, I don’t like what he said. I heard him, I was like, 'Let me read it again,' because I actually read it in print, and I’m going, I read a lot of stuff, and I’m going, 'Woah,'" Trump said in an interview televised Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union."
The billionaire said he thought Scalia's comments were "very tough to the African-American community."
Trump, who has supported affirmative action in the past but declined to say whether he was in favor of it today, said he has great friendships with black people.
"I have great African-American friendships," he said. "I have just amazing relationships. And so many positive things have happened."
In oral argument for a case challenging affirmative action at public universities earlier this week, Scalia posited that minority students who were not qualified for admission at elite universities would perform better at "less-advanced schools."
Scalia was excoriated by Democratic lawmakers, including Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), who called his comments "racist."
Shut up.
Say... “if you’ll pretty please shut up, I’ll agree that Trumpy is a psycho who needs to be evaluated for mental stability....”
On the bright side, Trump is a 100% qualified USA NBC.
LOL! The Admin Mod shut me up. HEEHEEHEEHEE HEE oooo that’s funny!!! :) :) :)
Fun little experiment, anyways. :)
shut up
I don’t know if you meant that for me or not, but if so, neener neener, you shut up first. hahahah
:) Just fun on my side too...
Shut up. :)
“Will you be disappointed in yourself when Trump does exactly as he had promised?”
Do you mean what he advocated a few years ago or within the last year? They are very different. What you need to know is that Trump has a long history of telling people what they want to hear, flattering them to get their support, and then ignoring those promises. When called on those broken promises he attacks and insults those criticizing him. Check it out for yourself. You are being played.
I’ll be back in a couple of hours to say “never”....
Never :)
That is exactly why I, and many others who might look the other way in some of his crude and vulgar mannerisms, have an impossible dilemma to envision giving him our vote!
Wow Laz you must be really bored today if all you want to do is get the mods attention in a negative way. Really, there are better things to do. It would suck if you got yourself temporarily blocked. :-(
Pretty much sums it up...
No, just wanted to see what happened when I told every Trump opponent to shut up. No matter what they said, just tell them to shut up.
Reality exception error in line 164.
Object “Coffee” invoked.
Beginning stack dump.
In 12 cup drip percolator pot, fill to 6 cup mark with water.
In filter, put 6 heaping scoops of coffee.
Medium roast works best, just make sure it’s a robust blend.
Found a maxwellhouse ‘medium roast’ that was rather anemic.
Put pinch of salt in filter, about as much as it would take to cover the surface of a dime with one even layer.
This keeps the coffee from tasting burned too quickly, it doesn’t age well brewed this way.
Brew, recirculate if need be, usually not.
Add sugar and dairy creamer.
Creamora and coffeemate are not recommended unless you like the heart racing that Ranger Pudding gives.
That, and the nondairy creamer will give you both a headache and a buzz with the coffee.
I usually put about 8 spoons of sugar in this stuff, it ends up being like Russian Kava, thick and sweet with that bitter overtone to it.
Oh, and I am NOT responsible for seeming demonic possession of the coffeepot, or the coffeepot ending up acting as if it has been damaged.
End dump.
Rebooting.
I put the specific lie you told in quotes.
I'm pretty sure this is the brand you use...
Oh, I see.
So you aren’t aware that Trump wants to continue to fund the “good things “ PP does? ( as if money isn’t fungible )
The cult of low information voters.
100% pure ground evil.
