Didn't know a lot about David Duke except what I had seen in the media over the years.

Looks like he quit the KKK in his mid 20's (40 years ago) and is not a white supremist but a big time anti-Zionist.

This guy is convinced that Jews are evil. lol

That would be why he both likes Trump and DOESN'T like Trump.

He likes Trump because Trump says he will give the Palestinians a fair shake in negotiations with Israel (as Pres. Obama has said as well).
He doesn't like Trump's position on defending Israel.

It took me about 1 minute to read a bit to find all of this out. I simply looked at his FaceBook page that the New York Daily linked to. That's his official "Fan Page".
Then I looked up his personal FaceBook page and read it.
Then I went to his davidduke.com website and read it.

I had thought the guy was KKK and hated black people, etc.

But if you read it...he says he left the KKK when he was a young man after a couple of years because of "idiots" in it.
I didn't see anything about "white supremacy" anywhere.

But the website and both Facebook pages are full of him accusing Jewish Zionism as being the cause of wars and financial strife.

Anyway, just wanted to say what I saw.
He even complains how the media uses a 40 year old picture of him as a 25 year old dumbass young guy in a KKK robe when he hasn't even been a member of it since then.

I do admit that just his name makes us all think of the KKK and black people being lynched...even though he never did any violence and left the KKK while in his mid 20's.
Sen. Byrd by contrast was in the KKK from the age of 24 until the age of 46 even though he stated that he only quit because of his political aspirations. And he continued to defend the Klan in Congressional hearings and vote against Civil Rights.
He also used the "N" word publicly as late as 1997.

Anway...I think that if Trump is asked to "disavow" someone who was a Klan member for a couple of years in their early life whom Trump has never met...
Then HILLARY should be asked to disavow a life-long racist and several decades long Klan Member whom she says was her "friend and mentor".

Wow!
