Who does Trump blame for his financial woes in Atlantic City?

It sure sounds like the kind of thing that creepy wingnut blowhard at the end of the bar would say. And Trump is that guy:
“I’ve got black accountants at Trump Castle and at Trump Plaza — black guys counting my money!” O’Donnell’s book quoted Trump as saying. “I hate it. The only kind of people I want counting my money are short guys that wear yarmulkes every day. Those are the kind of people I want counting my money. Nobody else. . . . Besides that, I’ve got to tell you something else. I think that the guy is lazy. 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 says he hasn’t read the book but when asked about it he told Playboy magazine that O’Donnell’s memoir was “probably true.”
Of course it is.
