to include Catholics, Jews, immigrants and anyone who wasn't a white Anglo-Saxon Protestant. Fred Trump was part of the KKK during its second era of resurgence in the 1920s, Donald is just going back to his family's racist roots. Trump has been persecuting immigrants, last night he was talking about "Shylocks," pretty soon he'll start using the old Klan favorite, "Papists."
