LOL! You have a ‘but Trump’ answer for everything. You sound like the ‘but Obama’ people.
You didn't answer the question?
How many minorities or women did the trump businesses employ beyond the "service level"?
What were the percentages?
What was the national average as compared to the trump businesses?
Do the research and get back to us with the answers.

A sad downside of Biden's promise is that the nominee will forever be regarding as an affirmative action appointee, regardless of her qualifications.
Ironically, in their current session SCOTUS will consider the constitutionality of considering race in the college admissions process.
All the more reason for having another minority on the bench!
But sadly the Biden nominee won't be there in time to argue for or against the case.

You are just trying to deflect from Bidens discrimination. Did Trump say he was only going to nominate a particular race and gender ONLY and not consider any others? So what you are really trying to say is that its NOT discrimination if you are a Democrat.
trump is a racist and didn't nominate minorities or many women to any of his Federal judgships, did he?
Therefor trump is a racist!

Trump never said he was only going to consider a white woman. Big difference.
No, trump only considered a majority of whites as his nominees.
Therefor trump is a racist by not including minorities or more women.

Did Biden include any jews, Hispanics, Irish, gays, Asian, on and on? Biden specifically said only a black woman. Trump never said he would only consider white men. Biden's choice is based skin color and gender only.

By all of your standards, then trump was a racist for nominating only white people to SCOTUS.
That also applies to most of the trump nominees for the lower Federal courts as well.
No, he didn't nominate them BECAUSE of their skin color... he didn't announce "I pledge I will pick a white person"... and then go look for one, that would be racist.
Picking someone who is qualified, with no consideration of their race, is not racist. Picking a football or basketball team and it turning out to be mostly black, even though they constitute 15% of the population is not racist. Thats picking the best of the best - no one questions that... they may scream because the coach is white though.
The majority of people in this country have white skin, tell me what statistically a choice based on qualifications should look like... hint: It would be what Martin Luther King wanted, the most qualified, and of no particular skin color-

It’s called “catch up” just like your 401k for older folks. If you didn’t have the opportunity in the past, you get a “catch up” period. If it were just race and gender, then it’s bogus; the person has to be qualified and be able to get through the vetting process.

You are deflecting from the point of the OPs intention of posting this. Why is Biden not being opposed by you hypocrite Lefties for discrimination??? Why is he intentionally nominating someone just because of their skin color and gender? If any employer in the United States ever gets caught doing that they will be a huge lawsuit.

Nah, ever heard of affirmative action? Applicant still has to have the credentials for the job.

What Biden is doing has nothing to do with affirmative action, it's discrimination.

Biden has said that he will choose a black woman as a supreme court justice. By definition, choosig by skin color and gender is flat out racism. No other word for it. PERIOD
Perhaps he already has someone in mind who just happens to be a black woman. Nothing wrong with that. I'm guessing it is not you.
