The Donald was was talking with NBC 4’s reporter Colleen Marshall backstage at a rally at the Delaware County Fairgrounds before giving a speech. Marshall asked about a number of topics, including how some Republican leaders have abandoned his campaign and how his remarks at the third and final presidential debate, in which he said he may not accept the election results, have created a stir.
The self-proclaimed billionaire seemed composed and calmly answered questions.. For example he told her he’d address his remarks about election results in his speech and that she would be “interested” in what he had to say (in that speech, he said he’d accept the results if he wins but may not if he loses).
Marshall then asked the Republican nominee for the presidency how he felt about being “labeled a racist” and “called a sexist” so close to Election Day (November 8). She did not call him either but reiterated what others have called him; regardless, Mr. Trump was having none of it — he said “thank you very much” and bolted.
Looking angry, as if he had taken the question personally and blamed Marshall for his being “labeled a racist” and “called a sexist” he initially walked away; however, he suddenly turned and made a quick response. “I am the least racist person you’ve ever met,” he told the NBC reporter.
Then he was gone.
Trump has been labeled racist by some after remarks about Mexicans and African-Americans made during the primaries, during the campaign against Democrat Hillary Clinton and in years past. Similarly, he’s been called sexist for remarks and actions during the 2016 campaign and before.
He has consistently denied being either.
