Jussie Smollet lied but Donald Trump wanted Innocent black men put to death
Cohen’s descriptions of Trump don’t come as much of a surprise. Four decades ago, Trump and his father were sued by the federal government, which accused the Trumps of giving preferential treatment to white people trying to rent the Trump company’s apartments. Donald Trump allegedly mistreated black workers in his casinos and, according to a former hotel executive, once said “laziness is a trait in blacks.” Years later, Trump would call for five black and Latino teenagers to be put to death after they were accused of raping a jogger in Central Park. The teenagers were later exonerated.
