Donald Trump Jr, the eldest son of the Republican presidential frontrunner and one of his political surrogates, has granted a 20-minute radio interview to a prominent white supremacist who broadcasts what has been dubbed as "the primary radio nexus of hate in America".
The younger Trump will be featured as guest of honor in Saturday's broadcast of the Political Cesspool, a three-hour program that lists among its objectives, "to grow the percentage of Whites in the world relative to other races." The show is presented by James Edwards, an avowed white nationalist who is pro-slavery and whose previous guests include the former grand wizard of the Ku Klux Klan David Duke as well as a raft of Holocaust deniers and neo-Nazis.
Edwards was granted credentials by the Trump campaign to appear as a bona fide media reporter at a recent stump appearance by the real estate billionaire in Memphis. He was given a media badge and a VIP parking slot before enjoying one-to-one time with the candidate's son.
In a blog posted on his white nationalist website, Edwards said that his experience at the rally "lived up to my expectations". In glowing terms, he said that his hopes for Trump's candidacy had been proven right - Donald Trump was the leader "our people" had been waiting for.
"Our people just needed a viable candidate and they've identified Trump as that man. There is no doubt that Trump's populism and nationalism is galvanizing our nation and may change the course of American history for the better right before our very eyes."
Edwards went on to praise Trump's "masculine attitude" as a "prototypical alpha male" and said he was supporting his candidacy because "because immigration is the single biggest problem that our nation needs to solve. Demographics is destiny."

No interview. The little creep was one of 200 reporters in the crowd. All were allowed in. No vetting. Much ado about nothing, but all the lib websites are running with the story, proving proving that the entire Trump family are all racists of the first degree.
The Trump campaign denied any knowledge of the interview.
“The campaign provided media credentials to everyone that requested access to the event on Saturday in Memphis. There were close to 200 reporters in attendance and we do not personally vet each individual. The campaign had no knowledge of his personal views and strongly condemns them,” said spokeswoman Hope Hicks.
“Donald Trump Jr. was not in attendance and although he served as a surrogate for his father on several radio programs over the past week, to his knowledge and that of the campaign, did not participate in an interview with this individual.”
Yep, there was an interview. Trump Jr. claims he wouldn't have done the interview if he had known who the guy was, but there was most certainly an interview:
“Had I known? I would have obviously never done an interview with him"
So he gave someone he didn’t know an interview. So what. Nothing to see here. Move along, or join with every leftist site in the world to condemn him and his father also as racist scum.
“Had I known? I would have obviously never done an interview with him”
FWIW:
Statement of Principles
(Snip)
1.Above all we are Christians and put our faith in Jesus Christ.
2.We are cultural conservatives because we have certain morals to which we adhere. Since family is the foundation of any strong society, we reject abortion, feminism, and homosexuality.
3.We wish to revive the White birthrate above replacement level fertility and beyond to grow the percentage of Whites in the world relative to other races.
4.America would not be a prosperous land of opportunity if the founding stock were not Europeans. Therefore, we advocate for an America First immigration policy. You can’t have a First World nation with a Third World population.
5.Secession is a right of all people and individuals. It was successful in 1776 and this show honors those who tried to make it successful from 1861 – 1865.
6.Private property rights are inviolable. They come from our God-given right to life.
7.Issues such as education, environmental law, and police should be decentralized down to the lowest level to insure natural rights and efficiency.
8.The United States government should be independent of any international organization of governments and American law should not be imposed by organizations such as the United Nations.
9.We wish for American government to stop interfering politically, militarily, and socially outside of the borders of the United States of America. We want non-interventionism.
10.Primary control of America’s institutions (business, educational, government, media, theological, etc.) should remain under the control of paleoconservative traditionalists.

Wishful thinking.
Your link from Media Matters is a nice touch. Most FReepers rely solely on them as a source, truthsayers that they are.
