This claim is based on A 1927 New York Times article that named Fred Trump as one of the individuals arrested after a "near-riot" involving the KKK and New York City policemen at a parade. There is no proof that Fred Trump was a KKK member or supporter. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/donald-trump-father-kkk-1927/
