Students React to Donald Trump’s Supreme Court Nominee… Before He Names One
This video from Campus Reform is almost toocringe-worthy to watch all the way through as college students denounce President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee — who hadn’t been named yet — as “racist,” a “white supremacist,” and a “threat to people who look like me.” When asked what qualities a Supreme Court justice should have, one student replies: “Black. A black woman.”
You know, if you ever get asked a question on the street by someone with a microphone and you don’t know the answer, then it’s OK to say, “I don’t know.” You’ll look a lot less dumb than if you just make something up.
Would also like to hear their answers to the follow-up question : What does a Supreme Court justice do ?
That’s easy – they are part of the Council of Elders that govern us, well if their progressives. Otherwise, patriarchy.
This is why people go to jail for obstruction. They get asked a question they don’t know the answer to, but have never learned that an honest “I don’t know” is the best answer. What is shocking is not just the idiocy, but the incredible intellectual dishonesty – not one of them thought to say – I hadn’t heard that he announced, who did he pick? Or even, “it doesn’t matter, the list he’s working off is all a bunch of reactionary fascists.”
