Butz resigned his cabinet post on October 4, 1976.

Butz said: "I'll tell you what the coloreds want. It's three things: first, a tight pussy; second, loose shoes; and third, a warm place to shit.”

Trump says shit like this everyday, and nothing happens.

Got caught doing a joyride around D.C. with stripper, Fanne Foxe, who jumped out of the limo into the D.C. Tidal Basin. And an immigrant from Argentina to boot.
