The surprising Woody Guthrie-Trump family connection
More Baggage from Brooklyn
In light of the recent backlash to Donald Trump in Brooklyn — such as the Schnitzel Haus restaurant on Fifth Avenue in Bay Ridge having to remove a photo of Trump from its wall due to angry patrons’ comments on Yelp — people may be surprised to learn of a decades-old feud that involved Trump’s father Fred and America’s great folk troubadour Woody Guthrie.
While the signed photo of Trump was only down off the wall at the Schnitzel Haus for one week, and has since been replaced, the Guthrie-Trump feud has never been resolved.
