Let me give you an example with university admissions.
In the past, universities would admit black kids will low scores over the Asian kids with much higher scores in the name of diversity. Under the Democrats, diversity was put ahead of merit. Trump wants merit first. Too me, that makes sense.

Let me tell y'all what's about to happen right now. Civil war. The war of liberation for the people of color. Oh it's going to be very bloody. Millions will die. This is what white America has been stashing weapons for. They knew this day was coming. Behind every white home is at least 10 guns and boxes upon boxes of ammo. But if my spiritual science serves me correct, blacks will come out victorious and usurp power and they would ally with Morocco to keep the whites in a permanent position of inferiority

DEI policies were ridiculous. It's basic common sense that any industrialized society must prioritize merit, excellence, and intelligence. For some very odd reasons, proponents of DEI cannot comprehend that merit is not race-based. In fact, it's even racist to think that without DEI, black excellence is not a thing.

If justice can be blind, it's important that opportunities be color-blind and based solely on merit.

Joseph Ladapo is the surgeon general of Florida, Adebayo Ogunlesi is the chairman of GIP...Blacks do not need props; we'll compete with the best. If you think we cannot, then you are the one who is being racist.

Any reasonable person will support this.

Good! Nigerian pastors and other bigots hiding in the US should come back and join Kanu grin. Trump slaves in Nigeria how market? grin. God bless Trump for this act
Misleading information, President Trump did not revoke the Equal Employment Opportunity Act of 1965, which is a law. Instead, he revoked Executive Order 11246, which had implications for FEDERAL CONTRACTORS and DEI practices within the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.

The guy is Lying.

The likes of MLK fought for equality.

Institutional Racism meant, banks did not loan money to people of colour, organisations could simply find chi or old in your name and dump your application in the bin.

With the equal opportunity act, it meant it would be illegal for an organisation to discriminate against you on the basis of age, colour race, or sexual orientation.

The proof would be in a law suit, which could display that such individuals were definitely profiled against.

Let's make America great again.

All Trump is say is employment and admissions should be merit based. As for the Africans in the US, many of them are very qualified in their vocations. From doctors to nurses, Africans have earn their place in the American society. I am not talking about African Americans oh. Those ones deserve another chapter.
In America Nigerians work hard. We obey the law of the land. We will take our place in that country.

We will rise on our merits where African Americans and other blacks failed.

God bless you Donald Trump.

Welcome to the new world order. The order of white supremacy. His black slaves in Nigeria will still applaud this initiative.

The US as it stands is already rigged against people of color. Abolishing DEI will further widen the already gigantic gap of inequality in the country.
Do you want to get employed because you are black/a woman/LGBTQ or because you are the right person for the job.
This same problem is what is dividing Nigeria.

You must agree.

Why are you all pretending you don't know what Trump is about.
What do u mean?
His fairy tales need scrutiny.

How can a racist work with a black man?

How can a racist do more for black people than Obama?

Illiteracy is a dangerous thing!
I am speaking from my experience working in the corporate america… and I tell you that the number of blacks and Africans like yourself that benefit from DEI and protection from discrimination is the majority compared to LGBTQ that they are less than 1%…
DEI does not mean reducing the hiring standard for blacks, it only means providing equal opportunities for people less represented…
Now you are here celebrating this, when you or any of your relatives could have been a beneficiary of the protection….
Who do you this kind thing??
look to be honest, i really don't care about all the other economic stuff and not even bothered one bit. Call it illiteracy or whatever, I really don't care. I'm just happy because the Demoncrats demonic freedom, wokeness and soo called liberalism was turning into full blown madness and rubbing off on the rest of the world, Nigeria not an exception. I'm very happy Trump is finally able to curtail this madness and restore sanity once again i have no regrets about that!

Fear of God first before anything else!

Your money isn't going with you to the great beyond !

Vinod007:
You are getting the meaning of equality and diversity wrong. What Trump is promoting is the opposite of equality and diversity. He is saying there should no longer be equality in employment opportunities and that it is no longer compulsory that diverse group from different colour and culture are given opportunities for employment.
Why should there be a diverse group, if you are the best person for the job, you will be given the job. You are just looking for freebie of which a black person is in the bottom of that list.

Moving the USA to more conservative society

There are over 1miliion Africans over there and i wonder what the future holds for those still unemployed

I guess this wouldnt affect international staffs of a U.S company working remotely from their countries
Blacks aren't welcomed again in USA.

You have no place to take and there are no merit-based opportunities anywhere, whatever you're enjoying is the struggle and sacrifice of some courageous people many years ago which is what someone is trying to destroy before our very eyes. Be careful what you wish for cos when the backlash starts, you will be too ashamed to talk or speak out which is the goal of whatever is going on now.

THE BLACKS WERE LIKE, WE HATE TRUMP AND THE MAN NEVER DID ANYTHING TO BLACK PEOPLE IN HIS WHOLE LIFE.

SO, THIS NEXT 4 YEARS WILL BE A LESSON WELL DESERVED.



LEARN FROM IT AND DEVELOP SENSE.


ONE THING APC SAID WAS THAT GEJ OVERFED NIGERIANS, THAT WAS WHY THEY HAD STRENGTH TO START OPPOSING HIM FOR NO REASON.

BUHARI WAS HUNGER, TII=NUBU DOUBLED IT TO HUNGER PROMAX, ARE NIGERIANS NOT SUFFERING AND SMILING?

DO DEY HAVE STRENGTH TO TALK?

BLACK AMERICANS WERE OVERFED AND HENCE MISBEHAVING AS TYPICAL.


WHETHER TRUMP REP OR BIDEN DEMONCRATS ALL IS FOR WHITE PEOPLE, THEY OWN AMERICA.


SIT ON THE FENCE AND BE WISE, ANYBODY MENTION BLACK PROTEST AND WARN THEM TO LEAVE YOU LOT OUT OF IT.

the question I asked is "How is Vince McMahon is a racist?"

you shared a link that said he benefitted from racial stereotypes.

how is benefitting from racial stereotypes the same thing as being racist?

did you actually read your link?

He's basically giving employers the right to discriminate based on race, gender and sexuality.
As is their right. You should be able to employ anyone you want and not forced to employ blacks or women.
