90 years ago today Donald Trump?s father was arrested at a KKK rally

?Fred Trump of 175-24 Devonshire Road, Jamaica, was discharged,? the 1927 article said, referring to the known address of Trump?s father in the Jamaica neighborhood of Queens.

According to the Post, a flyer passed around the neighborhood ahead of the Klan rally described the need for the rally.

?The predication for the Klan to march, according to a flier passed around Jamaica beforehand, was that ?Native-born Protestant Americans? were being ?assaulted by Roman Catholic police of New York City,'? Post reporter Philip Bump wrote in February 2016. ??Liberty and Democracy have been trampled upon,? it continued, ?when native-born Protestant Americans dare to organize to protect one flag, the American flag; one school, the public school; and one language, the English language.'?
On Memorial Day in 1927, the Ku Klux Klan marched in Queens to protest that "Native-born Protestant Americans" were being "assaulted by Roman Catholic police of New York City."[15] Fred Trump was one of seven men who were arrested that day "on a charge of refusing to disperse from a parade when ordered to do so."[15] In 2016, Vice magazine reported on their investigation of earlier newspaper clippings and found that Trump was the only person arrested who was not charged with any crime, leading them to conclude that he could have been a bystander
