Donald Trump has been facing endless accusations — even from within the Republican Party — that his video depicting the Obamas as monkeys was racist. The president chose not to apologize for the video but instead attacked the women and people of color in the GOP who condemned it.

As criticism began pouring in, he claimed he was not even aware of how it depicted the Obamas and then promptly deleted the video. What Trump does not like, however, is being humiliated. His niece recently revealed that this is one of his biggest fears.
