Lawrence O’Donnell Declares Trump the ‘Most Racist’ POTUS Who Didn’t Own Slaves
MSNBC anchor Lawrence O’Donnell on Tuesday declared former President Donald Trump the “most racist” occupant of the White House who didn’t own slaves, part of a strongly worded monologue that touched on the Justice Department’s recent—and decades-old—scrutiny of Trump and his family business.
O’Donnell called attention to how the department sued Trump Management in 1973 for discriminating against Black people while renting apartments in New York.
“For all of Donald Trump’s childhood, his father was a racist landlord that refused to rent apartments to people like Kamala Harris and her parents. Donald Trump, the most racist presidential nominee of a party who did not personally own slaves, grew up to join his father’s racist business,” the anchor of The Last Word said.
