"barely EVER said anything about race"

The real estate mogul was also accused of making racist remarks after he testified before the House Native American Affairs Subcommittee in 1993:

A book written by one of Donald Trump's former casino executives accuses Trump of calling his biggest gamblers "slobs," of making racial slurs against black people and of being largely ignorant about the casino business.

Yes Trump is an oppertunist but that does not mean he is not a racist. He is not a blank slate using a master plan to fool everyone.
