I was just watching a chilling broadcast on CNN, about the US government’s 1973 civil rights case against Donald Trump.
The case alleged civil rights violations against African-Americans in Trump housing in NYC.
You can see a snippet of the video below.
But then something caught my eye. CNN was mentioning how Trump, via his lawyer, hit back hard against the allocations. And I see a name flit across the screen, so I back up the DVR.a
This is what I see:
Roy Cohn, the lawyer handling the case.
Yes, that Roy Cohn.
For anyone unaware, Roy Cohn was a hated man. He was Senator Joe McCarthy’s right-hand man during the McCarthy era anti-communist witch hunts that destroyed so many lives. But to add to the fun, Roy Cohn was a closeted gay man, who eventually died complications related to HIV/AIDS. But none of that stopped Cohn from destroying the lives of countless gay government employees who he, and McCarthy, drove out of of their careers.
THAT Roy Cohn.
You see, Trump met Cohn early in his career, and Cohn reportedly became a sort of mentor to the young Trump. And Cohn became Trump’s lawyer as well.
As if you needed to know anything worse about Donald Trump. Now you do.
Here’s a quick snippet of the CNN video:
