And Trump himself has cavorted with rap superstars like Snoop Dogg and Diddy, basking in the glow of mutual celebrity. But the rap game’s love of Trump doesn’t seem to take into account how little Trump cares for the communities that most rappers come from; on the contrary, the 2016 Presidential hopeful seems to flat-out despise black people unless he’s able to promote himself via their fame or exploit their political influence—as evidenced by his history.

In the early 1970s, Trump Management Corporation owned 16,000 rental units throughout New York City in the boroughs of Brooklyn, Staten Island, and Queens, but only 700 were rented to African-American families. TMC was forced to settle with the Department of Justice in 1975 and set aside a certain number of units for black families. Nevertheless, black renters claimed that they’d been falsely told there were no vacancies three years later and another investigation was launched by the DOJ…

Trump has also been the cheerleader for privileged white people’s “fear of a black planet” for decades. In the infamous case of the “Central Park Five” back in 1989, in which five teenagers were falsely accused of raping a white woman in Central Park, Trump took out full-page ads in the major New York newspapers demanding that the state of New York reinstate the death penalty. The case drew national attention and sparked racial animosity throughout New York City. Even in 2003, after the five young men’s convictions were vacated due to DNA evidence proving they hadn’t raped the woman, Trump wrote an op-ed in the New York Daily News dismissing the city’s $40 million settlement as a “disgrace,” quoting an anonymous detective who described it as the “heist of the century.” In 2013, he asked a Twitter follower: “Tell me, what were they doing in the Park, playing checkers?”
