NEW: In upcoming book, Michael Cohen writes Donald Trump's disdain for Obama was so extreme he hired a "Faux-Bama" to participate in a video in which he "ritualistically belittled the first black president and then fired him." He includes this photo: cnn.com/2020/09/05/pol…
In 2015, after Trump called Mexicans criminals & rapists, he dismissed concerns he’d alienated Latinos. "Plus, I will never get the Hispanic vote," Trump allegedly told Cohen. "Like the blacks, they're too stupid to vote for Trump. They're not my people." cnn.com/2020/09/05/pol…
According to Cohen after Obama won office in 2008, Trump said, "Tell me one country run by a black person that isn't a sh*thole...They are all complete f*cking toilets.” cnn.com/2020/09/05/pol…
