Former Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard David Duke defended Donald Trump on his radio show earlier this week from criticism of his comments about Judge Gonzalo Curiel, blaming "the Jews" in the media for propagating a long-running negative agenda against the presumptive Republican nominee.
The white supremacist radio host dropped the names of Fox News' Chris Wallace, along with Jake Tapper and Wolf Blitzer on CNN, who Duke said he had "exposed ... as a Jewish agent." Jeff Zucker, the current president of CNN Worldwide, is "another Jewish extremist," he remarked.

“I wonder how much Soros paid Duke for his 2cents now? I just don’t trust anything much anymore. My tinfoil is bought by the case now!”
Maybe I can spare you a little tinfoil on this one. David Duke has an entrenched history of jumping in front of the parade in order to pretend he is leading it. He crashed an event with Pat Buchanan many years ago when I would have had the opportunity to meet Mr. Buchanan but for this boor’s crashing the party, which resulted in all meetings be cancelled in order to avoid Duke. Duke was never much to start with, is a long spent force, and is utterly irrelevant except for lame attempts like this at guilt by association. Soros didn’t have to pay Duke anything. This is classic Duke MO.
Thanks...will put my tinfoil up for now. I remember now.
Is that Androgynous Pat?
Radio show??? Non-entity as far as probably most people are concerned.
Funny how the people that cry about Duke the most (the media, the Left) are the only ones that ever seem to care about or mention what he says.
I think Trump better do what he does best....tell Duke in no uncertain terms what he thinks of him and remove himself as far as he can from him.
“tell Duke in no uncertain terms what he thinks of him and remove himself as far as he can from him.”
Or double down on duke and say that if Hillary coddles LaRaza, he would want Duke. Triple down and increment, if necessary. /s
No, it is classic MSM. Why is Duke's opinion about anything relevant or newsworthy? Do I need to state the obvious?
Pajama Boy puts on weight!!
Suddenly, the media wants to hear from this guy
It is funny you never hear from this guy except every 4 years.
Yeah, like the cicadidae invasion.
Who cares what David Duke has to say about anything?
It is the liberal MSM that uses him against the Reps. They have made him a celebrity. Duke is only a weapon if we allow him to be. Reps should not even respond to MSM questions about what he has to say. They just legitimize him.

The statement is a few days old, and unfortunately has gotten quite a bit of coverage, though mostly on the internet. Doesn't seem to be getting much traction amongst Trump supporters, the comments on most sites, even the couple mainstream sites, are mostly negative. Negative about Duke, not Trump.
The notion that La Raza Lawyers association is not associated with the National Council of La Raza is as far fetched as the notion that La Raza generally is not a pro-Mexican group.
Yesterday was a disaster. Trump was getting trashed by the president, the vice-president, the Senator from Massachusetts and by the Clintons. No one defended Trump and he wasn't defending himself.
I have never seen anything like it. Trump needs to fight back because the GOP will not lift a finger to defend him.
