Donald Trump won't disavow David Duke and the KKK
 

Donald Trump won't disavow David Duke and the KKK Trump on white supremacist support: - CNNPolitics.com

Classy guy.

disavow?

what is this a Mission: Impossible movie?

of course he won't disavow them, he's neither responsible for them nor supportive of them.

So when random assholes say they support you, you can't just ignore them?

"Donald Trump deflected questions about disavowing David Duke, saying 'I just don't know anything about him"

Oh nos!! Mark has a panties in a bunch...again!:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Hey guys what's all the hubbub?

Look at all the conservabros making excuses for Trump's racist followers. Just think if it was racist black people and Obama the topic would be 5 pages long with all their crying.

How is White House favorite reverend Sharpton doing these days? Still dodging the irs and profiteering off being racist?

So someone who is running for President of the United States doesn't seem to know who David Duke is? How can he not know? I know Donald Frump is new to politics, but even I know who David Duke is with his long history. If you pay ANY attention to current events or politics, you must know who he is.

has Hillary disavowed the black panthers? Hamas? Muslim brotherhood?

See you whine about Al Sharpton but don't blink and eye about the KKK. Thanks for proving my point..

Don't put words in my mouth mr troll. Just pointing out how the president has never commented on questions asked about another racist.

He never said he wouldn't disavow David Duke.

He said he doesn't know the guy, never met him - and would do research on any group if CNN gave him a list - before disavowing anyone.

Nice attempt at a spin job, Mark. You're smarter than that.

hummm.... the KKK isn't dogging federal indictments for tax evasion, having lunch with POTUS, been caught MORE THAN one time trying to manipulate the race for profit... ... yeah I can see where that's exactly the same :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

what current event has david duke been a part of?

In before we get 5 pages of its ok the KKK supports Trump because of black lives matter...

preemptively making shit up, clever!

that's one of the funnier things about liberals, they will actually make shit up about you so they can then point their finger at you about the shit they just made up!

See here I thought you liked Trump because he was different. Yet here you are saying he's just like Obama.

:2 cents::2 cents::thumbsup

Being just like Obama would mean Trump inviting David duke to his home on a regular basis. Trump would never do that.

I watched that a few minutes ago on CNN "State Of The Union".

It was Jake Tapper trying to get Trump to say on live television that he didn't want any votes from anyone who agreed with David Duke.

Trump used the "I don't know David Duke" defense. He didn't say he didn't know who David Duke was.
But it's pretty obvious what Trump is doing.

The KKK hasn't been a powerful organization in a LONG time. Matter of fact, last time it had a big membership and had power was back when Democrat Senator Robert Byrd was a big official in it.

Having said that..."Super Tuesday" is in a couple of days.

Trump asked for a "list" from Jake Tapper and that he would go over that list with his staff and find out everything about them and then make a statement.

And if he does make a statement like that...it will be AFTER Super Tuesday (which are mostly the Southern states).

I think he's making a calculated political strategic move. He didn't "accept" the endorsement and he didn't "reject" it either.

It's the same strategy that Pres. Obama has used in these cases with people like Bill Ayers, the Black Panthers, etc.

The Pres. didn't want to lose any votes even though he might not agree with what those people say.
Trump is pulling the same trick.

Doesn't make Obama or Trump "racists".

Now if Trump comes out tomorrow and hugs David Duke and proclaims his love of the KKK...then he's a fucking racist.

You are just crying because I beat you to the punch. You guys have already had countless whine topics about BLM. I just cut you off before you could cry about it.

Don't worry in 2 or 3 pages you guys will bring it up and it use it as an excuse for the KKK and the neo Nazis who support Trump.

Why is ********** obsessed with US politics and politicians? Do they not have that shit in Canada?

You've lived in a van far to long.

there ya go again, making some more shit up then pointing your finger at me about it.

I don't think the KKK or Nazi's need to make excuses for what they do.

And I don't think that Trump has any power over what anyone does. And neither do you or the media, as evidenced by Trump winning across ALL demographics.

Oh and by the way...here is the actual CNN report from last AUGUST that they are conveniently bringing up now.

CNN went to David Duke to ask him about Trump. Duke didn't call a press conference or anything like that.

Duke said he's "The best of the lot".

But would NOT endorse him because:
"Duke, who previously served in the Louisiana statehouse and ran for U.S. Senate in that state, did not endorse Trump and said Trump remains untrustworthy for his "deep Jewish connections" and support for Israel."

So once again...the media being dishonest and trying to get Trump to say something that would fuck himself up.

Oh, but it's OK for you to make up shit about me? You do it all the time then cry when the shoe is on the other foot. Very typical of right wing conservabros.

Are you really sure Sanders is your guy or is it just some elaborate troll? I mean hell you spend more time defending dumb shit Trump does than anything else..

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

..and you've been divorced too many times.. At least I'm happy with what I do..

i haven't made up jack shit about you so there you go yet again making shit up just to point your finger.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

this is why i like teh GFY, peeps always prove me right.

and i am really sure Sanders is my guy,

and i can see a clearer picture of Trump than you because i'm a true liberal, not a 21st century do as i say not as i do, ban shit i disagree with, everyone must agree with me fake liberal.

Funny to see how desperate the media has become to dis-credit him. If this isnt a clear picture why he is the right choice i dont know what else is. The establishment is going after him more then an admitted socialist. He cant be controlled and they are freaking out.

Lol lol you have no idea how happy I was the day after each divorce.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"I don't know anything about what you're even talking about with white supremacy or white supremacists," he said. "So I don't know. I don't know -- did he endorse me, or what's going on? Because I know nothing about David Duke; I know nothing about white supremacists."

That sounds like a normal response to me.... unless you're desperate and fear your socialist or criminal candidate is going to lose... then I guess you have to grasp at anything you can.

trump is done!

Uh Oh!
Looks like crockett has insulted yet another person who is now frying crocketts ass on an open flame.
I don't think there has ever been another GFY troll who so regularly gets schooled and has his ass handed to him in every discussion like crockett
:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

The media is reporting on a Facebook post David Duke wrote on Tuesday where he basically says him and Trump share the same views. It was all over my Google news stream as David Duke is still faily popular in certain parts of America.

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/poli...icle-1.2544763

Don't worry he probably won't stop the food stamp program.

His exact quote was

"Honestly I don't know David Duke, I don't believe I ever met him and I just don't know anything about him."

But in 2000 Trump said when asked if he would the Reform Party nomination

â??As you know, the Reform Party has got some pretty big problems,â?� Trump said on World News Now in 2000. â??Not the least of which is Pat Buchanan, David Duke, Fulani, and itâ??s a problem.â?�

Trump also wrote in the New York Times, â??Although I am totally comfortable with the people in the New York Independence Party, I leave the Reform Party to David Duke, Pat Buchanan and Lenora Fulani. That is not company I wish to keep.â?�

QUOTATION OF THE DAY - NYTimes.com

Seems Trump knew who David Duke was in 2000, includng his KKK history.

ftr, if you're referring to me as a socialist, which is fine, either way, but the specific reason Sanders is my guy is his promise to reform campaign finance, not because i'm a [democratic] socialist. i don't believe any of his democratic socialist ideas will come to fruition under a Sanders presidency, nor do i believe they are the right answers to any particular issue.

but i do believe most all problems with our government today begin with campaign finance. start there to fix it.

Said every week by every talking head in the world for the last eight months... and here we are.

I hadn't seen that. I was going by this from CNN on August 2105:
White nationalist David Duke praises Trump's candidacy - CNNPolitics.com

I also read this in that link you just showed me:
"While Duke has said he has not "formally endorsed" Trump, the GOP presidential hopeful acknowledged his support Friday night after announcing an endorsement from Chris Christie.

"David Duke endorsed me? OK, alright. I disavow, OK?" Trump said after announcing New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's endorsement."

Good Lord...I just went to the link to Dukes Facebook page that was in that New York Daily News piece.

Duke is doing this to get publicity for HIMSELF. Take a look: Dr. David Duke

Start reading the thing. He has figured out that Trump gets him views.

Well the point I was trying to make was not about the people voting for him. Just the fact is he's an admitted socialist and he was displaying he at least did/does have a chance of defeating the establishments queen Hilary.

Normally by now you would see posters, commercials, CNN front page with a split screen of Sanders and Lenin. EASILY attacking him and destroying his campaign.

But the bulk of the attention is clearly centered around Trump. They are pulling at every single straw. They are giving air time to Mexico's ex-president calling him Hitler. Basically doing any possible to dis credit him no matter how far fetched it is. Now they are trying the KKK route, it is just so far out there it is laughable.

But what is not laughable is how a media that tries (and fails) to present itself as unbiased is going after him like I have never seen before. They are scared, the establishment is scare of Trump.

So again the point was the fact you would think they would be going after a self-proclaimed socialist and not a successful businessman.

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!

Here is your racist. Listen to her change her voice to talk to black people.
Wow...

LoL

Quote from Byrd ..... "I shall never fight in the armed forces with a negro by my side ... Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds"



"Clinton had become friends with Byrd during her time in the Senate, and had even lunched with Byrd and Clintonâ??s mother, who came to admire him while monitoring C-SPAN for her daughterâ??s floor appearances.

"This morning, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton put out her own statement eulogizing Byrd as a â??friend and mentorâ?� as â??a man of unsurpassing eloquence and nobility.â?�

â??It is almost impossible to imagine the United States Senate without Robert Byrd. He was not just its longest serving member, he was its heart and soul. From my first day in the Senate, I sought out his guidance, and he was always generous with his time and his wisdom,â?� Clinton wrote."


But hey, it's just Hillary.
