I don't disagree with them on a lot of their politics, but keep in mind that Huffington is EXTREMELY biased. I fact check what I'd read there as much I would with Fox or Breitbart.

Donald Trump's Housing Discrimination Case Still Chases Him Decades Later : NPR

Quote:
"He said, 'Well, I'm only doing what my boss told me to do — I am not allowed to rent to black tenants,' " Morse says.

The commissioner asked the building superintendent to take him to his boss. That turned out to be Trump Management.

That can't possibly be confusing to or difficult for you. If you own a company, you often have employees other than yourself. Those employees can do things that do not amount to simply following your orders in a robotic manner.

Again, did you read the article? You wouldn't be confused if you did. Here, I'll lay it out again.

Anyway, so you seem to be with the morons insofar as this sort of thing goes, Ki.
He might have just been saying that a Mexican judge will be biased by national loyalty and not racism.

Or he's just being a prick and keeping out minorities to keep his racist white tenants happy.

Assuming that's true (I'd like to see the evidence for it), we're saying that Donald and/or Ivanka are identical to the bosses? No, right?

Also, I'd like to point out that I've not thrown insults at you, so I'd appreciate it if the same courtesy was given back.

Are you saying someone that owns the company that seems racist has no control whether or not the bosses and employees are racist? Of course they do. They would stop the racism if they thought otherwise.
