El Trumpo swallowed the left-wing lie that Scalia was talking about all blacks when he made the argument that affirmative action doesn’t always work, as per the “mismatch” theory and critique of the policy.
It seems to me that the Donald is just pretending he knows what the comments were because he’s very vague here. That would be the most charitable reading, as anyone who looks at Scalia’s comments objectively without supporting a leftist political agenda would know that it wasn’t racist at all and he’s being smeared by the left-wing media.
