{{Quote|I asked Fred Trump what his policy was regarding minorities and he said it was absolutely against the law to discriminate. At a later time... Fred Trump told me not to rent to blacks. He also wanted me to get rid of the blacks that were in the building by telling them cheap housing was available for them at only $500 down payment, which Trump would offer to pay himself. Trump didn't tell me where this housing was located.|A former Trump employee's statement to the FBI.}}

According to a 1927 edition of the ''Long Island Daily Press'', Trump was among seven alleged [[Ku Klux Klan]] supporters arrested during a protest march in Queens on Memorial Day. The march was organised in order to protest American citizens being "assaulted by Roman Catholic police of New York City". Trump was initially charged with "refusing to disperse from a parade when ordered to do so" but was later released. Another man, who was simply a bystander and not a marcher, was also discharged.

During the 1970s, the New York City Commission on Human Rights received complaints that black people were being turned away by Trump's renting apartments. The commission sent test applicants to investigate and found that white people were usually offered apartments while black people were falsely told there were no vacancies. The manager of one of the buildings told the commission that Trump has instructed him not to rent to black people or people on welfare. The FBI subsequently interviewed 36 employees and found out that Trump had told them not to rent to Puerto Ricans or black people (who he called "lowlifes") and to get rid of black tenants by offering them cheaper lodgings. The Department of Justice filed a civil rights lawsuit against Trump and he was forced to sign an agreement to allow black people to rent apartments.

Fred Trump was described as an authoritarian parent, maintaining curfews and forbidding cursing, lipstick, and snacking between meals. At the end of his day, Trump would receive a report from Mary on the children's actions and, if necessary, decide upon disciplinary actions. He took his children to building sites to collect empty bottles to return for the deposits. The boys had paper routes, and when weather conditions were poor, their father would let them make their deliveries in a limousine.


According to his daughter Mary, Trump emotionally abused his son Fred Jr. to the point of driving him to alcoholism. While Donald, who would become company president in 1971, was told he was a king and taught to be "invulnerable", Fred Jr. was constantly mocked and derided by Fred Sr.. Mary L. Trump states that Fred Sr. "dismantled [Fred Jr.] by devaluing and degrading every aspect of his personality" and mocked him for his decision to become an airline pilot. At age 42, Fred Jr. died from complications caused by his alcoholism.
