Affirmative action actually has a wide enough array of definitions that really anyone could sign onto it if they so choose. Obviously, at its most extreme on the one side, it’s strict quotas in favor of certain minorities no matter how unqualified or relatively inferior they might be. At the other extreme, however, affirmative action can mean nothing more than taking affirmative action to make opportunities known to those minorities, and nothing else.

Trump has evidently implemented a form of affirmative action somewhere along that continuum, probably closer to the latter, and it’s worked out well for him, so based on that he doesn’t have a problem with it.

His form of affirmative action is Hiring Illegal Polish workers to save a buck to build his High rises and Import cheap foreign labor to do entry level work at his resorts.

You’re right, It has worked out great for his pockets. It however, hasn’t faired so well for those American Citizens that needed a job.

Affimative Action, tRump style.

The kind the Chamber of Commerce will looooooooooove!
