VIDEO: Before Trump’s SCOTUS pick is made, New York University labeled them ‘racist’ ‘extreme’
Hours before President Trump’s announcement of his pick to replace retiring Justice Anthony Kennedy a new video surveyed students at New York University by Campus Reform asking for their thoughts.
Yes, that’s correct: their thoughts before the selection has even been made.
“He’s quite extreme in his views,” said one student of the fictitious Judge.
“I saw it all over the news, that he’s like racist,” another student added, referring to the announcement that hadn’t yet happened.
“I saw the new nominee is like racist, and he’s starting a new wave of something very negative, and I’m really scared about the future and what choices he will make,” another pupil added.
When asked if she’d seen the online coverage of the event, one faculty member described witnessing “outrage… as it should be.”

The reaction to the Supreme Court vacancy has been contentious:
“Trump was clear during the campaign about his list of potential SCOTUS nominees: ALL want to take away a woman’s constitutional right to make her own health care decisions. We cannot go back to the days before Roe v. Wade.” – Kamala Harrris @KamalaHarris
Peter Daou, advisor to Hillary Clinton, Arlen Specter, and John Kerry, tweeted this: “Look, we’re at the point where the GOP is running Nazi candidates, stealing #SupremeCourt seats, shrugging at school massacres, and ripping brown babies away from breastfeeding mothers. If anything, Democrats are underreacting.”
Michelle Wolf offered up a “patriotic tribute” to abortion, ending with “God bless abortions and God bless America!”
