Instructor at American U. Claims Trump’s Anti-DEI Policies Benefit ‘Straight White Christian Men’
“This administration isn’t just shifting attention and funds towards its own priorities.”
This illustrates the major problem Democrats have right now with male voters. They can’t divorce themselves from people who think like this.

American University instructor claims Trump’s anti-DEI actions benefit ‘straight white Christian men’
A faculty member from American University in Washington, D.C. recently went on a tirade against President Donald Trump’s anti-Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) actions, claiming they benefit “straight white Christian men.”
Melissa Hahn, an adjunct professorial lecturer at American University’s School of International Service, made her comments in a Feb. 9 post on LinkedIn.
“This administration isn’t just shifting attention and funds towards its own priorities. It is presenting straight white Christian men as the norm and making the recognition of any other identity controversial and taboo,” Hahn wrote.
She continued: “We see this in the federal government’s scrubbing of public data, banning of affinity groups, disappearance of websites, dismantling of exhibits, covering of murals, establishing of snitch hotlines, firing of those who attended diversity training in the past, and deleting of pronouns in email signatures – all while elevating those of highly dubious ‘merit’ to key leadership roles.”
She further expressed her worry that “many institutions will comply in advance” with Trump’s DEI bans.
Hahn’s comments come after several of Trump’s executive orders targeting DEI.
On Jan. 20, Trump signed an executive order titled “Ending Radical and Wasteful Government DEI Programs and Preferencing,” eliminating DEI initiatives across federal agencies. A day later on Jan. 21, Trump issued another order, “Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity,” which orders the Department of Labor to stop supporting “Federal contractors and subcontractors” who promote DEI and affirmative action.

This is like complaining that installing anti-shoplifting cams “benefits capitalists.”
Another Crazy White Chick heard from.
And? Is this a problem?
Good morning, Mr. Milhouse. I wrote my reply below before I saw your comment. Should I downtick you for doing this? That is the question. I’m sure somebody will
“Trump’s anti-DEI actions benefit ‘straight white Christian men”
This seems like an admission (as if one was needed) that DEI actions were intended specifically to harm straight white Christian men.
Yes. Who could have thought that when you stop discriminating against straight, white Christian men, it benefits them?
Deez wyte wimmenzes… they cray cray.
This batty woman is someone with an advanced degree? I think the school needs to explain, in detail, why they should pay this woman anything.
“This administration … is presenting straight white Christian men as the norm and making the recognition of any other identity controversial and taboo”.
And? How’s this a problem?
Democrats present the view that anyone “straight,” White, Christian, or male, is controversial and taboo, Heaven help anyone whose identity intersects all 4 of these verboten things!
Yes, Mzz Hahn? And…?
Living proof that you can have a college education and STILL be stupid as a rock.
