Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Neb., said that Donald Trump’s comments about the federal judge handling the Trump University case were by definition racist in a post on Twitter Monday.

Although Judge Gonzalo Curiel was born in Indiana, Trump has said multiple times that his Mexican heritage has made him too biased to rule on the Trump University case. Sasse pushed back Monday.

“Public Service Announcement: Saying someone can’t do a specific job based on his or her race is the literal definition of ‘racism,'” Sasse tweeted on Monday.
