MAGA Alert! POTUS Trump ditching Obama’s racist college admission policies

(National Sentinel) Winning: The American Left constantly portrays President Donald Trump as a racist and a bigot simply because he won’t kowtow to liberal versions of “fairness” when it comes to matters of race.

“Fairness” to the American Left is government and institutions providing minorities with outsized benefits and advantages as part of some ‘payback’ effort to punish white people for things that happened decades and even centuries ago.

Barack Obama was a president who played the race card so often he couldn’t discuss a cultural or social issue without claiming that white America is still unfair and discriminatory.

It helped him to ‘justify’ putting policies in place that gave minorities advantages that, by law and by constitutional mandate, they should not have.

The Constitution calls for equality. Federal statutes forbid the use of race as a qualifier for anything in the public and private sector.

So why would Obama authorize universities to bar students and admit students based on their skin color?

We don’t know and neither does POTUS Trump. So he’s ditching Obama’s racist administration standards and qualifiers for higher education admissions.

As reported by The Associated Press:

The Trump administration is rescinding Obama-era guidance that encouraged schools to take a person’s race into account to encourage diversity in admissions.

That’s according to an administration official who spoke on condition of anonymity because the announcement had not yet been made.

The Washington Times adds:

The Justice and Education departments will simultaneously issue the new guidelines.

The Supreme Court held that universities may use affirmative action to help minority applicants get into college. Critics contend the practice has gone too far and can now discriminate against white people and Asian-Americans.

It’s a safe bet that some Left-wing legal organization or even colleges and universities themselves will sue the administration over the policy change, but that may be a good thing for once.

Because it will give a federal judiciary another look at the issue and another opportunity to rule that Obama’s policy, not Trump’s, was a violation of constitutional principles and statutory law.

The Supreme Court’s ruling was not a carte blanche order allowing universities to blanketly discriminate against anyone, including whites. The SCOTUS that Trump is building is more likely to see the law and the Constitution, not a Left-wing political objective if they have another opportunity to look at this issue.
