FBI releases files on Trump's apartment race discrimination probe from the 1970s

The FBI has released nearly 400 pages of records on an investigation the bureau conducted in the 1970s into alleged racial discrimination in the rental of apartments from President Donald Trump's real estate company.
The files detail dozens of interviews the bureau conducted with Trump building tenants, management and employees, seeking indications that minority tenants were steered away from housing complexes.
Most of those interviewed said they were not aware of any discrimination. However, some of the records recount the stories of black rental applicants who said they were told no apartments were available, while whites sent to check on the same apartments were offered leases.
The records, posted on the FBI's Freedom of Information Act website, include a 1974 interview with a former doorman at a Trump building in Brooklyn.
A supervisor "told me that if a black person came to 2650 Ocean Parkway and inquired about an apartment for rent, and he, that is [redacted] was not there at the time, that I should tell him that the rent was twice as much as it really was, in order that he could not afford the apartment," the ex-doorman said.

If it did not result in charges then it is irrelevant

Wow. They have to go back 40 years to attack Trump.....and it's still a nothingburger.

the FBI attacking the President of the US should strike fear into every American. We are witnessing a coup right before our eyes and the time for taking up arms may be closer than anyone wants to admit.

This was under his father and is old news taken out of context.
Why bother with this crap when the media is about saying Trump is a KGB agent that will be impeached?
