[QUOTE="MAKAVELI, post: 2086787, member: 43825"] [URL]http://latino.foxnews.com/latino/opinion/2016/03/01/opinion-ku-klux-klan-civil-rights-and-donald-trump-inherited-family-values/[/URL] Trump lies. We know Donald’s father, Fred, was arrested at least once for a KKK incident June 1927 (New York Times). We also know that Trump’s father and Donald were charged by the Richard Nixon Department of Justice (DOJ) with massive housing discrimination against blacks and Puerto Ricans. The entire investigation and charges by the Nixon DOJ are outlined in a Washington Post article of January 23, 2016, by Michael Kranish and Robert O’Harrow Jr. In it they outlined how undercover federal government “testers” filled applications to rent apartments in some of the 14,000 Trump managed. Black testers were encouraged to go elsewhere and their applications were coded with a “C” or coded with “No. 9” to indicate they were “colored” or Puerto Ricans. White applicants were shown apartments while black applicants were not. In October 1973, the Nixon DOJ landed on Donald Trump and his father with the entire weight of the federal government for violation of civil rights. Fred Trump called a news conference and charged the federal government with “outrageous lies.” Trump Jr., who clubbed in private New York disco clubs with infamous lawyer Roy Cohn of Senator Joe McCarthy days, hired Cohn to represent the Trumps. Cohn, a champion of sleaze, attacked potential witnesses and even the government lawyers themselves. Nonetheless, the case was so legally strong that after a two-year fight the Trumps surrendered and signed a consent decree that, while secret, cost the Trumps a lot of money. They had to pay for advertising of every apartment vacancy and in those ads had to state that they were an “Equal Opportunity” landlord. The National Urban League handled all apartment applications. Clear discrimination against blacks and Hispanics plus two Ku Klux Klan episodes and the hiring of illegal immigrants from Poland and hiring thousands of foreigners instead of Americans is Donald J. Trump’s life experience before his candidacy of president. Candidate Trump has raised many objections to current immigration and proposed a total cutoff of any Muslim entry into the country. He has accused all Mexicans (except “some”) of being criminals and “rapists.” He cannot decide whether or not to reject White Supremacists and a former KKK leader’s support. One must wonder if we Americans have entered a political “Twilight Zone.” Raoul Lowery Contreras is a political consultant.
