100% accurate, the first was for giving different rental agreements to minorities than to whites, he lost, apologised and said it would never happen again.
The second was 3 years later for telling minority applicants that empty apartments were full, he lost again.

Also this gold:

Workers at Trump’s casinos in Atlantic City, New Jersey, accused him of racism over the years. The New Jersey Casino Control Commission fined the Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino $200,000 in 1992 because managers would remove African-American card dealers at the request of a certain big-spending gambler. A state appeals court upheld the fine.

The first-person account of at least one black Trump casino employee in Atlantic City suggests the racist practices were consistent with Trump’s personal behavior toward black workers.

“When Donald and Ivana (the first of his three wives) came to the casino, the bosses would order all the black people off the floor,” Kip Brown, a former employee at Trump’s Castle, told The New Yorker for a 2015 article. “It was the ’80s, I was a teenager, but I remember it: they put us all in the back.”

Trump allegedly disparaged his black casino employees as “lazy” in vividly bigoted terms, according to a 1991 book by John O’Donnell, a former president of Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino.

“And isn’t it funny. I’ve got black accountants at Trump Castle and Trump Plaza. Black guys counting my money! I hate it,” O’Donnell recalled Trump saying. “The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day.”

“I think the guy is lazy,” Trump said of a black employee, according to O’Donnell. “And it’s probably not his fault because laziness is a trait in blacks. It really is, I believe that. It’s not anything they can control.”

Trump told an interviewer in 1997 that “the stuff O’Donnell wrote about me is probably true,” but in 1999 accused O’Donnell of having fabricated the quotes.

And this gold:

In 1993, Trump wanted to open a casino in Bridgeport, Connecticut, that would compete with one owned by the Mashantucket Pequot Nation, a local Native American tribe. He told the House subcommittee on Native American Affairs that the Pequots “don’t look like Indians to me... They don’t look like Indians to Indians.”

Trump then elaborated on those remarks, which were unearthed by The Hartford Courant, by claiming ― with no evidence ― that the mafia had infiltrated Native American casinos.

When he was in his twenties, in the early 70s, the department of 'justice' sued Fred Trump, Donald Trump, and Trump Management over alleged discrimination in housing practices.
The case was settled without admitting guilt.

The second case was for allegedly violating the terms of the settlement. It 'expired without resolution'

You are fundamentally misrepresenting what happened.

Defendants vigorously deny said allegations.
Accordingly, without adjudication of the merit and
without any admission as to the existence or absence of
liability
, and in order to resolve this matter without
further protracted litigation, the parties hereto are

It is expressly understood and agreed that the execution
of this Agreement by Trump Management, Inc., is in no way an
admission by it of a violation of the prohibition against discrimination as set forth in the Fair Housing Act of 1968, or
any other applicable statute, rule or regulation.



...

It is hereby ORDERED, ADJUDGED and DECREED that in
consideration of their affirmative assumption of responsibility
contained in part III herein, the complaint against Fred C.

personal capacity, with prejudice, as to all allegations
contained therein, and predating this Order.

For real? trump wouldn't admit guilt or liability? Since when has he ever admitted fault in his entire career?
Whether he admitted it or not, it happened.
The justice department does not just run around targeting powerful millionaires for nothing.
Poor people admit guilt, millionaires settle out of court.

Do you admit you fundamentally misrepresented what happened and were wrong or not?
