Trump triggers outrage for attacking anti-segregation housing rule: 'More racist by the second'

On Tuesday, President Donald Trump tweeted that he was "studying" the Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) rule — a regulation that combats neighborhood segregation — calling it "devastating" and "not fair to homeowners."

Trump's new attack on fair housing sparked fury from commenters on social media — some of whom pointed out that Trump and his father were investigated by the Justice Department in the 1970s for denying apartments to Black applicants.
