Just out of curiosity what is the quota now for women, color, and sexual orientation that administrations must appoint now?

CNN, the left, and the rest of main stream media are obsessed with minorities, gender, and sexual orientation, and/or Shims. Sickening really.

What about those people that have clown fetishes, feet fetishes or that like skat films? Should not they also have a position in a Trump administration?

CNN

I believe the idea is that diversity (specifically diversity of culture, not necessarily race) leads to a greater variety of opinions, which increases the likelihood that the best idea will present itself when coming up with solutions. I don't think they are going for affirmative action on the political appointments.

Isn't it amazing? Let's not simple discuss his carbonate picks or even 3 women trump has picked, but 3 women of color. CNN is a joke

If Trump had a binder of women, he would have been ready to appoint on day 1...

Bullshite, yes they are.

You are a racist if you don't.

Equal qualifications of white male and a black lesbian: Black lesbian wins everytime. The optics look better.

Wtf. Gender and race obsessed.

And yes they are certainly going for affirmative action.

Is itself a racist/sexist/homophobic/etc... idea. No reason to believe that just because someone looks or acts different from you that you'll automatically have a different idea.

What a racist and sexist DJT is for not making his cabinet full of minority women! Also, we need a few interracial cisgenders as well.

I'm all for diversity of thought. The idea that diversity of race leads to diversity of thought is racist.

If someone comes from a different culture, they will likely have different ideas. Culture is shaped from nationality, where you live, your family, even gender plays a part in how you think and act.

Diversity of culture leads to diversity of thought.

Identity politics is the only thing the modern left knows. Merit means nothing. Genitalia, skin color, and sexual orientation are the only defining features that matter.

I've literally never met a single soul who is a vocal advocate for "diversity" that thinks "diversity of ideas" is a good thing. In fact, quite the opposite actually.

Anything less than 100% is unacceptable. Straight white men are literally Hitler.

Have you gone to College in the last 10 years or worked for a fortune 500 company in recent times?

He should pick who he thinks is best for the job.

BUT, if they want to impose a quota of some sorts black women should make up approximately 7% of his picks.

Diversity of culture


Assuming culture by race is racist.

You could have people from 5 difference races all grow up in the same town, same school, rich families, same country club.

You would have diversity of race, but no diversity of thought or life experience.

You could also hire 5 people of the same race and receive complete diversity of thought and life experience.

(But conservatives are the racists)

Which is great for our side. We saw that in Nombember.

The party of Kennedy now stands for the party of the gay, immigrant, and transgender. A losing narrative.

Yes, it is very racist.

Very true, but race still plays a factor in culture.

Also true

100% correct

Please don't misinterpret my first post to say that race diversity = cultural diversity. That is not at all what I said or meant.

So women of color now applies to women who neither identify with nor look like black people - the original "people of color". Another shift in the Alt Right/White Supremacist strategy to turn the progressive agenda on its head. Thanks.
