Extracts from Cohen's new memoir allege that Trump was consumed by an obsessive hatred for Obama. In one bizarre incident, Trump hired an Obama lookalike & 'ritualistically belittled the first black president & then fired him' in a video | BISouthAfrica

Cohen claims that Trump described Obama as a"Manchurian candidate" who owed his place at Columbia University and Harvard Law School to"f---ing affirmative action."

It shows Trump sitting across his Trump Tower desk from a man resembling Obama. On the desk in front of Trump are two books, one with Obama's name on the front. A parody of Trump's hit reality show The Apprentice, it was supposed to be aired at the 2013 RNC convention, according to reports, but was canned by party bosses. , Trump attacks the Obama lookalike's record as president, his lack of business experience, and his golf game.

According to the extracts, Trump belittled minority voters, saying,"I will never get the Hispanic vote. Like the blacks, they're too stupid to vote for Trump." In the book, Cohen's assessment of his former boss's character is withering, and he describes him as"a cheat, a liar, a fraud, a bully, a racist, a predator, a con man."
