A conservative president needs to pick his fights. Affirmative Action is not one that we’re going to win.

Actually, not true. Outlawing or limiting racial preferences have succeeded at the ballot box and in the courts. Last year, Blacks and Hispanics tried to get affirmative action thru the CA legislature. It was blocked by the Dem Asian legislators.

Trump is no conservative. He stands for Trump. It’s a mystery why FR RINO haters love him so. You won’t once he’s elected.

It's this defeatist attitude that hands victory after victory to the Left. There are probably as many people who oppose affirmative action as those who oppose amnesty for illegal immigrants, abortion, or homosexual marriage. So by what logic is repealing affirmative action not a cause worth fighting?

Especially not NOW, in the primary campaign. How STUPID he would have to be.

Really, I think a lot of people are just plain pissed off because Trump isn't as STUPID as they think he SHOULD be.
