If you think Donald Sr and Donald jr are bad, check out Fred Trump.

Fred Trump
marched with the KKK in 1927-Memorial day.
was investigated by a US Senate committee in 1954 for overstating his building charges by 3.7 million dollars.
was sued by the Civil Rights Division in the US Department of Justice in 1973 for violating the Fair Housing Act of 1968-Tricky Dick Nixon was President during that time.

It's a real eye-opener into the whole disgusting crew. Not an ounce of good in any of them, starting with Fred.

He tried so hard to take over Coney Island. He wanted that land so badly for real estate development. He bought the Steeplechase, one of the original amusement parks. He threw a “demolition party” where people were invited to throw bricks at the facade of Steeplechase. There were models in dresses and bikinis and hard hats. The land wasn't zoned for real estate so he didn't get to build on it.
