http://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-black-lives-matter-2015-9Real-estate mogul Donald Trump made it clear in a Tuesday interview that he is no fan of the Black Lives Matter movement.
"I think they're trouble. I think they're looking for trouble," the Republican presidential candidate said during a Fox News interview with Bill O'Reilly.
The Black Lives Matter movement seeks to call attention to what it describes as systemic mistreatment of African-Americans by police officers.
Protests affiliated with Black Lives Matter built momentum after a series of high-profile incidents over the last year in which unarmed African-American men died during their encounters with law enforcement, including in Ferguson, Missouri, and Baltimore, Maryland.
No surprise here.

perhaps it should be Trump.
