O'Malley in Iowa: Donald Trump's a racist

“It’s time to put this racist bully in his place and a tough woman in hers, the White House,” former Maryland governor and 2016 presidential candidate Martin O’Malley said Sunday, referring to Trump and Hillary Clinton.

O’Malley brought up news reports about a 1973 Justice Department lawsuit over racial discrimination against Trump and his father, Fred Trump. O’Malley said Trump “redlined his apartments just like he redlined his campaign.”
