Replying to @ddale8
Swan: "Lyndon Johnson! He passed the Civil Rights Act."
Trump: "Ask, ask: how has it worked out? If you take a look at what Lyndon Johnson did. How has it worked out?"
Swan: "You think the Civil Rights Act was a mistake?"

Well it did eventually lead to him and his father being sued by the Justice Dept for discriminating against Blacks wanting to rent their properties. So I'm going to guess he probably isn't too keen on the progression of civil rights legislation that began with the 1964 Act.
