I'd say no. If anything I think Trump looks at things from a business man's perspective. He doesn't care about your race or gender he only cares about how much money you can make him.

True, but the fact remains— some are measurably more racist than others.

What's the unit of measurement for racism?

Whether he's racist or he just likes saying racist things isn't really a meaningful distinction.
"Number one, I am the least anti-semitic person you've ever seen in your entire life. Number two, racism, the least racist person"
Trump has been claimed to be very racist from second-hand sources. If that's so, he does a good job of keeping it out of the public eye. All of his policies conveniently keep people of color out of the country without mentioning their ethnicity.

Because apparently people take gawker seriously? Gawker is there for when Buzzfeed feels too much like credible journalism.

Not just Gawker, Gawker with sources. Wow!
Yes. Why else would he not object to having blatantly racist supporters?

Literally three of the entries on that list. Quite good proof that he's racist.
Pretty sure Jamie will just ask us to go back and look at those sources.

Here you go

Now you can pay money to read secondhand Donald Trump's quotes, or you could literally visit any other website that will tell you what is said in the book.
Guess they kinda fucked up with the title.

I agree with this completely.

And then there's this
Trump"Number one, I am the least anti-semitic person you've ever seen in your entire life. Number two, racism, the least racist person"
So basically he's the "least racist person we've ever seen."
He rebounded quickly and became bigger than ever, which makes it awful. That's excluding the presidency.

Plus all of his legal issues with race discrimination

Since you're deflecting as hard as you can, let me point out that this topic has literally nothing to do with the success of Donald Trump.
If Donald Trump was a failure in 1991 then the book isn't automatically wrong. It was 1991.

Except, considering how quickly he bounced back in the 90s, the book was a failure. If a guy gets knocked down then quickly scrambles to his feet, claiming he's knocked out is wrong.
The problem with these claims include the fact that a lot of the things it cites -- and I can guess the nonsense without seeing it -- refer to decisions made by his KKK-supporting father. And, in general, most issues were industry-wide.

This is the dumbest thing I have read.
That is like pulling up a copy of a newspaper from 1945 talking about nazi germany. Then fast forwarding to now, and saying that newspaper is wrong there are no nazis in germany.
Just going by the things Trump has said:
Then this was enacted by Donald Trump himself:
However, if you're going to just quote nonsense you find on Gawker -- a source which got sued into the crowd over its poor journalistic practices -- you might as well toss in the remaining "proof" of racism where they quoted "You're fired" multiple times in a row.
You literally quoted a source chock full of loaded language and bias which openly draws suppositions.

I quoted a source that quoted him--with sources for the quotes. Have a look. it's the Fortune link. I haven't even opened the Gawker one.
