LOL!: Don King denies endorsing Trump

The great boxing promoter, Don King, just endorsed me. Nice!

“I am not a racist, in fact, I am the least racist person that you’ve ever encountered,” Trump said during an interview with The Washington Post published Friday.

“This is Don King. Now, Don King knows racism probably better than anybody. He’s not endorsing a racist, okay?” Trump said.

King denied that he had endorsed Trump in a brief interview with the New York Daily News on Friday.

“No…I’m endorsing the people. I’m not a Republican or a Democrat, I’m a Republicrat, and I go with the will of the people. The only reason Trump exists is because of the will of the people," King said.
