Revisiting the Allegations of Discrimination Against Black Tenants in the 1970s
Did Donald Trump Discriminate Against Black Tenants in the 1970s?
Nope. Absolutely he did not. There were managers of that particular property that supposedly discriminated against blacks, but that has not been confirmed. Regardless, even if this did happen, the leftist loons will automatically say it was President Trump that did it. They are so desperate to prove President Trump is a racist.
According to the book “The Making of Donald Trump” by David Cay Johnston, which includes detailed footnotes for fact-checking, there is a specific episode involving discrimination against minorities. For example, it is mentioned that Fred, Trump, taught Donald about refusing to let black and other races rent an apartment. I saw footage of another white employee who was present and a witness, who stated that Donald looked nervous and did not know what to say when his father used the 'N' words. On that note, Donald was clearly embarrassed about the situation.
However, it is important to note that there is considerable evidence suggesting that they did indeed engage in this behavior, and they were allowed to settle the case without admitting guilt. Further proof lies in the fact that they attempted to countersue the government, which was dismissed as baseless.
Yes or No, Fred Trump, known for these discriminatory practices, did many charitable actions for minorities. Donald Trump has also done more, including elevating women into traditionally male-dominated positions. Nevertheless, Trump's charitable efforts are insignificant compared to some billionaires when 'cherry-picked'. It is, however, true that Fred restricted access to Trump properties to all minorities and welfare recipients.
These practices were eventually sued by the DOJ and a rights group in the early 1970s. It was a time when civil rights groups were increasingly making every case about race. Donald Trump at the time was a young man in his early to mid-20s and had just taken control following his father's death in 1969. Reports of past history, even those so recent as 60 years ago, can change over time. Allegations of other property speculators attacking a greenhorn DJT to reduce competition are plausible.
Historically, Fred Trump represented a time when people on welfare were treated with disdain, and being colored further exacerbated the situation for not just blacks. If I had extensive properties, I would likely vet all potential renters. The KKK has a dark legacy during that era, and while Fred was accused of being a KKK member, there is no direct evidence to support this.
In conclusion, while Fred Trump may have engaged in discriminatory practices, it is important to separate facts from conjecture. Donald Trump, in contrast, has made significant strides in charitable work and promoting diversity. These actions are a testament to his evolution as a leader and businessman.
