How is Trump connected to racism?

All I am looking for is video evidence of Mr. Trump being 'racist'. I see so many accusing him of being racist but never have seen or heard him say anything racist. But maybe I just missed it. That is why I'm asking for someone to post video evidence of him saying racist things. That is all. I'm not looking for a debate here.

We all know racism is immature, short-sighted and wrong. I just want to know if the rioters are being truthful about their claims.

I don't think he's so much connected to racism as he is to general xenophobia and sexism.

He has a long, rich history of regarding and treating women like ****. Of that there is plenty of evidence.

And he is also scapegoating immigrants of all stripes big time, I guess probably out of political expediency. But it's not going to bring a single job back.

But in general, his policies will be geared toward running roughshod over minorities, not as direct targets but more just as collateral damage. You can be pretty sure that things like gay marriage would never have happened under a Trump presidency, and maybe he'll find ways to roll it back. And he will strongly support things like ability of businesses to systematically discriminate against LGBT people on religious grounds.

It won't be too explicit, but it will permeate in the background.

Gay marriage is really a Supreme Court decision and, yes, another socially conservative justice will most likely vote against marriage equality given the chance. Which would return it to the state level. I do not see any federal action by congress or the executive branches likely.

Also, are you aware that it was Trump who forced the exclusive clubs in Palm Beach to start allowing blacks and Jewish people to join? He started this positive change by announcing when he opened Mar-a-Lago that blacks and Jewish people were welcome to join.

Here's a link---and it comes from a liberal-approved newspaper:

No. Trump was running the companies. Everyone who's commented on this said that Trump handled more of the operations and decisions than his father. Even if the direction came from his father, Trump was the one making sure it was implemented.

The only reason he sued that town was to lift restrictions on his property. This wasn't altruism or fighting on the behalf of Jews & Blacks. He just needed a stick to hit them with, and the anti-discrimination one was what he used.

Who know's the truth but digging a claim up as far back as from the early 1970s doesn't mean anything.

If you owned a property you should be able to rent to whoever you want. You think black or whoever else owned property and business owners don't discriminate? Hillary essentially discriminates by living in a very white and upscale neighborhood. If a group tends toward being bad tenets then that's their problem. If a black property owner had bad experiences with white tenets and their friends and associates they should be able to discriminate too.

What? Still no videos of Trump saying any racist remarks?
We all know articles with words can contain lies. That's why I asked for video proof. The untouched video doesn't lie.

'Mexican' is not a race. 'Mexican' is a nationality.
'Muslim' is not a race. 'Muslim' is a Religion.

All these stupid protests claiming Trump is such a racist but absolutely NO video proof...
