7. First thing that came to mind for me, too.

Obama was once president of the Harvard Law Review (its first Black president). This was 34 years ago, in 1990, but Trump never forgets grudges. But of course in Trump's tiny brain Obama was chosen only because he was Black, not because he was a good writer or smart or anything like that, because of course Black people can't get anywhere without affirmative action or DEI or whatever. The Law Review is a separate, student-run entity that doesn't even get federal funding, but that doesn't matter. Are they going to sue the Law Reviews of every other law school, or only Harvard? Or are they going to go looking for others that also might have had Black editors or members?

Fuck me...
