A study guide for the Law School Admission Test (LSAT) appears to disparage President Donald Trump.

One question in The LSAT Prep Book, published by the Windham Press imprint Test Prep Books, appears an example for the “foundational” concept of “Reasonableness,” which entails evaluating the author’s evidence to justify a conclusion, Dana Pirrotta of The College Fix reports.

“The book instructs the reader to ‘ignore outside biases, judgments, and knowledge,’ and then gives an example prompt plucked from ‘social media, entertainment, and cable news’: Donald Trump is unfit to be President of the United States of America. He lacks political experience and backs racist policies, such as internment camps and deportation,” she writes.

“The explanation that follows the prompt analyzes how the author concluded that ‘Donald Trump would not be a good president.’ It cites his ‘lack of political experience and supposed racist policies as the evidence, or premises,’ that justifies the conclusion. It doesn’t specify a source for Trump’s alleged support of ‘internment camps.’’’

A spokesperson for the Law School Admission Council told The Fix that Test Prep Books is not an officially recognized provider of prep material under its standards.
