“Black Guys Counting My Money! I hate it.” – Donald Trump
According to the former President of Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino, Donald Trump said he hated “black guys counting” his money, and “laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is. I believe that.”
In the 1990s, John O’Donnell, the former president of Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino, wrote a book about his time working with Donald Trump. O’Donnell reported that Trump frequently denigrated African Americans. He specifically remembers Trump saying of his accountants:
“I’ve got black accountants at Trump Castle and Trump Plaza. Black guys counting my money! I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day.”
Speaking of another African-American employee, Trump told O’Donnell:
“I think the guy is lazy. And it’s probably not his fault because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is. I believe that.”
In a Playboy article published May 1, 1997, Trump was talking about John O’Donnell’s book and said, “Nobody has had worse things written about them than me,” Trump says. “And here I am. The stuff O’Donnell wrote about me is probably true.”
