WATCH: Donald Trump Walks Out of Interview After Question About Being 'Labeled a Racist' and 'Called a Sexist'

Donald Trump abruptly ended his interview with a local Columbus television station on Thursday after he was asked about being labeled a racist and sexist.

“19 days out from the election, you’ve been labeled a racist, you’ve been called a sexist, how…” NBC4‘s Colleen Marshall asked the GOP nominee before his Ohio rally at the Delaware County Fairgrounds.

“Thank you very much,” Trump, 70, responded, adding, “I am the least racist person you’ve ever met.”

Before he cut the interview short, the Republican presidential candidate had detailed his economic plans and discussed his remarks from Wednesday’s debate.

elected to an office where he'll have to deal with foreign leaders.

Meanwhile, Hillary's had to put up with much worse questioning over the past 25 years.

Can't dismiss the notion out of hand. He's done crazier, and he's proven himself capable of far more calculating calumny.
