That’s exactly what he’s doing. Race: white.

No, it's not. Because he's not hiring competent people that are the right race over equal or better candidates that are some other race - he's hiring based on being in his circle, regardless of competence. We wouldn't be calling out his picks nearly so much if he was picking someone qualified and white over someone potentially more qualified and black rather than picking someone totally unqualified because he knows them.
