@georgetakei Lest we forget, fascist tendencies are part of Trump (née Drumpf) family history: old man Fred Trump's slumlord management company used a code "9" (as in "nein," or "no" in German) to mark rent applications to deny. They also used a code "C" to mark rental applications submitted by people of color, for purposes of denying housing, or steering applicants into Trump's preferred slums for minorities.

This evidence came to light in the HUD case against Fred Trump back in the late 1960s. The Trump company paid what was the largest civil penalty in history to date, for rampant, systemic housing discrimination.
