From Andy Borowitz's satire report from the New Yorker: CBP agents tell Trump that "They see hundreds of these Mexicans, and they’re coming across the border with LSAT-prep books,” and are becoming "biased" lawyers and judges.

It's from the Borowitz Report, so not actually true. But these days, it's hard to tell the difference between truth and comedy with Trump's outlandish claims, particularly his latest about Judge Curio and his - real - support for "ethnic and religious litmus tests for federal judges." See this New York Times editorial board for more on on this topc. (Revised 6/7/16, with the embarrassing admission that I didn't catch on to the satirical nature of the LSAT books column when I posted it yesterday.)
