Facing International Outrage, Trump Denies Being a Racist

HeadlineJan 16, 2018

This all comes as President Trump has denied being a racist, during an interview with reporters on Sunday.

President Donald Trump: “No, no, I’m not a racist. I am the least racist person you have ever interviewed. That I can tell you.”

Meanwhile, on Saturday night, activists projected onto the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C., the words: “Need a place to stay? Try this shithole.” But they, too, like the president, used the full four-letter swear before “hole.”
