"Trump is a good businessman. He doesnt want to throw away the KKK vote."
Trump/Duke 2016!
You got one thread pulled today, now you are just looking for JimRob to permanently kick you off of this site.
I second that motion. I smell ozone in your future Tommy boy.

Duke, a white nationalist and former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard, last week told listeners of his radio show that voting against Trump would be "treason to your heritage." He encouraged his audience to vote and volunteer for the front-runner, saying they would meet people with "the same kind of mindset that you have." Sounds like something Robert Byrd would say to Hillary supporters.

do like that Trump assumes any media question is a gotcha question and avoids it. Too many politicians seem to think the media, this time, is asking an honest question and foolishly offers a candid answer. In this situation, though, he turned the question into a gotcha question with his response.

“Trump is an idiot.”
Perhaps, this however was a brilliant response to a leftist attempt at entrapment and assigning responsibility to republicans because some random nobody nutcase happens to support them.
Its also stating very clearly we don’t trust what CNN has to say about anyone. We cannot condemn someone on the alleged reporting of CNN.
To: Jane Long
Trump is 30K feet above you ground grubbers....seeing the BIG picture. Lowlifes like Duke dont even register on his radar. Its actually refreshing that Trump has no idea who this vile person is. Do you genuinely believe that Trump does not know who Duke is?

I hate the media. Trump is the only one who refuses to grant them unquestioned legitimacy. They are evil and do not represent the American Middle Class or Traditional American Values. I don't understand your point. Could you clarify. It sounds really interesting I am just not following it exactly. Thanks.
To: RetSignman
The microphone wasn’t picking up the questions very well so it was hard to tell who asked the question. Trump didn’t play with him though.
To: SeekAndFind
Trump cannot help it who supports him, but he can dismiss the nuts who endorse him. Anyone who knows who David Duke is knows he’s not one we want in our camp. Well, at least that used to be true before Trump.

Trump is a counter puncher. The others lied and threw mud first. He defended himself with equal and greater force. Looks like the GOPe gave up on no attacks on fellow Republicans a long time ago. Just listen to Mitch McConnell.

Sounds like a media inspired ambush of Trump. Just how much power does the KKK have to swing an election? They are a joke. Most are probably FBI informants keeping an eye on the “leadership”.
To: SeekAndFind
Seems reasonable to me...he was too busy building skyscrapers in New York to care about some nutcase in the South.
Is this another attempt to smear Trump for what he DIDNT SAY?

Good for Trump! The typical conservative would be running around in circles.
To: SeekAndFind
Not a Trump fan but he’s not responsible if some scumbag endorses him. The best thing to do about David Duke is not even mention his name.

...but don't try to tar him by his endorsers. That bears repeating. All we are seeing is a typical leftist attack technique. Plenty of people with noxious views or personal character vote for candidates of both parties at every election. Nobody in the media is pointing out that in the last Presidential election the winning candidate had the support of a large percentage of the crack cocaine dealers and users in the country, for example.
Of course if a candidate repudiated a group of voters, then the same media would accuse them of being "divisive" or "not having a big tent".
Yet another BS technique from the leftist media.

I don’t think even Trump could be this ‘Stump Stupid’, could he??
Funding PP is bad enough, but being this stupid?

Hes being asked if he repudiates this particular one. An easy Yes would have sufficed. Apparently he doesnt even know who the KKK is ... Amazing ( to use the word Trump likes to use a lot ).I have to go with you on this one. He needs to issue a statement at this point.
To: SeekAndFind
Someone asked about this in the presser with Christie and Trump said he didn’t know about it and that he denoucned it.
End of story.
Tapper needs to try to keep up.
