Donald Trump Believes In The Power Of Genes

I was watching Donald Trump’s rally in Mobile, Alabama Friday evening.

He said something to the effect: “Do you believe in genes? I believe in the gene thing.”

I assume Donald Trump is a race realist.

From 2011:

London, England (CNN) — Real estate tycoon and multi-billionaire Donald Trump says that he was born with the right set of genes that enabled him to have fame and fortune.
“Well I think I was born with the drive for success because I have a certain gene, Trump told CNN’s Becky Anderson
“I’m a gene believer… hey when you connect two race horses you get usually end up with a fast horse,” he said during the Connect the World interview.
“I had a good gene pool from the stand point of that so I was pretty much driven.”

HBD stands for Human BioDiversity. I think it was a movement named and started by Steve Sailer.

I mean … I do. Right? Y’know? I do. Like they used to say, Secretariat doesn’t produce slow horses … [At 13m00s in this clip of The Donald addressing a campaign rally in Mobile, Alabama, August 21st 2015.]

Good grief! A Presidential candidate who is not a blank-slatist? Strange times, strange times.
