Frederick Trump was not an opium dealing pimp. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/donald-trump-grandfather-prostitution/ USA Today found the KKK claim to be partly false. Reports from the day show a Fred Trump was detained at a KKK rally in 1927. There is no evidence that he was a member or supporter. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/06/18/fact-check-fred-trump-detained-kkk-rally-circumstances-unclear/3209853001/
