Fred Trump 1927 arrest (a friend sent me this interesting information)


Fred Trump 1927 arrest

On Memorial Day in 1927, the Ku Klux Klan marched in Queens to protest Protestant American citizens being "assaulted by Roman Catholic police of New York City."[6] Fred was arrested "on a charge of refusing to disperse from a parade when ordered to do so," and the only one of seven men dismissed without charges.[7][8] All seven arrested were referred to as "berobed marchers" in the Long Island Daily Press. A Vice article noted that if any of the attendees were not "dressed in a robe at the time, that may have been a reporting error worth correcting."[7] When asked about the issue in September 2015, Donald Trump, then a candidate for President of the United States, denied that his father had ever been arrested.

I suppose that Old Man Trump knows just how much racial hate
he stirred up in that bloodpot of human hearts
When he drawed that color line here at his Beach Haven family project

Beach Haven ain't my home! No, I just can't pay this rent!
My money's down the drain and my soul is badly bent!
Beach Haven is Trump’s Tower where no black folks come to roam
No, no, Old Man Trump! Old Beach Haven ain't my home!

Just like Donny inherited Daddy's money,Freddie inherited mommy's.

Mommy's money probably had something to do with Fred being the only member of the seven whose charges were dismissed.
