Donald Trump's KKK connection in dad's Klan riot arrest
nydailynews.com ^ | february 28, 2016 | adam edelman

Racism reportedly runs in the family, when it comes to the Trump Klan.

Trump’s late father, Fred Trump, was arrested following a Ku Klux Klan riot in Queens in 1927, according to a bombshell report that further suggests unusual ties between the 2016 front-runner and the notorious white supremacist group.

Fred Trump Sr. was among seven men arrested following a May 30, 1927 brawl between members of the KKK and the New York Police Department, according to The Washington Post, which unearthed news articles from the June 1, 1927 edition of The New York Times.

The elder Trump’s role in the brawl was unclear, The Post reported, and there is no proof in the report that he was a member of the KKK.

This would be funny if it were not so pathetic! So now we go back to 1927 with a piss poor attempt to smear Donald Trumps father!

Racist on account of your father? It’s genetic? Hmmm. Genetic if you disagree?

I never believed that C wrap in the first place.

Man, they are getting desperate aren’t they?

They’re not going to be happy until America is burning I suppose.

SMH.

Drumpf is not KKK, but he is a fraud. A lot of people I once thought were smart are being flimflammed by this guy.

So, you're smarter than Sarah Palin, Phyllis Schafly, Governors LePage, Christie, Brewer, Senator Jeff Sessions?

You must eat at the speshul table.

Ok. My grandmother used to call blacks “darkies.”

My father worked for intelligence operations against MLK and the civil rights movement.

I am an adult now. I respect my family. But I don’t agree with their prejudice.

This is a ridiculous “issue.”

Some of them, probably, but they all have other motives that include personal financial benefit. Those on here supporting him are simply being fooled. Trump is a fraud and all will know it, but probably not soon enough.

No, he’s just another example of the elitists in the GOP.

As long as you put my name on the visitor's list on whatever asylum you end up committed to, because I have no doubt that when you hear the words "I, Donald John Trump, do solemnly swear" next January 17th, you'll end up being picked up by paramedics after you try to slit your wrists, electrocute yourself, or drink mineral oil.

January 17th = January 20th 2017.

Fixed that. Didn't want to confuse you in your already confused state.

I read all about this **arrest** of Fred Trump last year when investigating Donald. It is definitely an attempted smear of the Trump family, and anyone with common sense will see it for exactly what the GOPe is trying to use it for - a smear job.

The Last Refuge offered to pay an independent researcher to produce an analysis and compile their own modeling.

Here is what that analyst found:

I’ll give you a tease - the final result indicated that Trump would be elected President of the United States by over 73 million voters!

The real story was closer to Fred Trump was marching in support of two Americans named Amoroso and Carisi who were Italian immigrants, and had been murdered on the streets by Anarchists, when Irish Catholic cops started beating the hell out of Protestant whites in religious hatred.
