But since he "resides" in the rich part of Manhattan, can he wear white after Labor Day?

.....actual Klan? Or maybe he just overtly supported it.

Never forget that Woodie Guthrie's song about Old Man Trump and his racism as a landlord.

All the Trumps are hideous spawn.

He was arrested in NYC at a Klan rally in 1927. Newspaper reports are vague as to whether he was in support of the Klan. But others say there's other reports of his KKK membership.

The grandfather was born in Germany.

The grandfather ran houses of prostitution, in Seattle....and died at age 49 from the flu pandemic.

He named his son Frederick Christ Trump, the name Christ was his wife's maiden name. Maybe not as weird of a name back then???

His son, dolt 45's father,
was accused in 1954 of profiteering from government contracts was under scruntiny by the U.S. Senate Banking committee for windfall gains. In testimony, investigator William McKenna cited Trump and his partner William Tomasello (who previously had mafia ties).
and investigated again in 1966...

So donnie boy came by his crooked and racist thinking pretty naturally, it seems.

...to me that the system is broken when it comes to certain families. We wouldn't have Trump today if his grandfather and/or father hand been dispatched legally.

Reminds me absolutely of the family of Nero.
