ABC Debate Moderator Claims Trump Has ‘Connection’ to Michigan KKK
Newsbusters ^ | August 19, 2024 | Nicholas Fondacaro

In a possible preview of how she planned to conduct herself as one of the moderators of the first presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, during her coverage of the Democratic National Convention on Monday, ABC’s Linsey Davis claimed – without evidence – that Trump had a “connection” to a month-old KKK rally in Howell, Michigan because he was going to hold a rally in the same town.

In a conversation with Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D), Davis noted that “Trump is expected to go campaign in Howell, Michigan tomorrow.” And as if there was no other reason for Trump’s campaign to visit, she suggested the march was why Trump chose to go there:

Many people are aware that a month ago, in Howell, KKK protesters marched in the streets with the white robes on and suggested that they support Donald Trump. I’m curious if you make anything about that connection and him going in particularly to Howell tomorrow.

Contrary to Davis’s suggestion, the march was not widely reported on a national level.

And while she saw no reason for Trump to go there besides the KKK march, a quick search for Howell on Google maps showed it sits between Ann Arbor, Detroit, and Lansing; making it a central location for people to travel to. Michigan was also a closely contested battleground state.

As for Whitmer’s reaction, she falsely suggested that Trump would be there around the same time the march happened (despite it happening a month ago), and she basically wrote-off the town:

It’s painfully obvious at this point nothing will convince the lefties that Donald Trump is NO racist.

It’s how Goebbel’s propaganda worked. Just keep accusing the person of wrong and his denials soon become unbelievable.

So, is ABC’s Linsey Davis a dog rapist, because dog rapists have buttholes, too?

I guess we better not call anybody any names—and stick to the “issues”.

Lol.

President Trump needs to sue that old ho. Another old ho who, if she didn’t have a race card, she wouldn’t have anything to say. Stupid bimbo.

I say Linsey Davis has a direct connection to The KKK, because her name is Davis, Just like the President of the Confederacy, Jefferson Davis.

You’re right. And why hasn’t she changed that “confederate” name? If she was a military fort they’d have to change her name to something else. Fort Barbie or something.

She probably connects "Davis" with Angela.

Trump should not agree to a debate on ABC unless Kamala relents and agrees to debate on Fox. We are always playing into their hands. The June debate was unusually early and was just to get Biden off the ticket

It is because they know damn well he is not a racist. They have nothing else.

Killer Kamala as Border Czar is responsible for assaults, rapes, murders, and fentanyl deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans by MILLIONS OF ILLEGALS she allowed through our border but ABC doesn’t care.

I don't know.

I still like the idea of Trump having the Fox debate with an empty podium for Kamala. Ask Trump a question, and after he answers it, ask the same question to the empty podium. When there's no response, then say, "The Democratic candidate has no answer. Then asked Trump another question. Rinse, Lather, Repeat.

No bias with that debate moderator.............or is there.

If the Camel can withdraw from the Fox News debate then so can Trump withdraw from this debate. The problem is that the independent voters need to see that the Camel is an empty suit.

I bet the KKK marchers were Soros paid actors. Were any of the marchers identified? When was the last time the KKK marched anywhere? This smells like the C-ville charade that Whitmer and her commie AG cooked up.
