During his sit-down with moderators, Trump was asked: “Some of your own supporters, including Republicans on Capitol Hill, have labeled Vice President Kamala Harris — who is the first Black and Asian American woman to serve as Vice President or be on a major party ticket — as a ‘DEI hire.’ Is that acceptable language to you? And will you tell those Republicans and those supporters to stop it?”
To which Trump immediately responded: “How do you define DEI? Go ahead, how do you define it?”
And when the host answers, “Diversity, equity, and inclusion,” Trump pushes back, “Ok yeah, go ahead. Is that what your definition is? Give me a definition… You have to define it.”
