Donald Trump in the article's title seems a bit clickbaity. The story could stand on its own without focusing on Trump. The connection feels contrived. But interesting story nonetheless.
That last paragraph does rather bring it all back to him .....
I agreed until I read the part about Parker's mom being part of the team that investigated Trump for not renting to black people. Provides the motivation for Parker to be involved.
If you read the last paragraph, it seems Trump learned some tricks from mister "C.B.S." and even took them to the next level.
It's the New Yorker. They're not going to pass up an opportunity to bash Trump.
