He should disavow Christie's. Who wants the endorsement of a RINO.

We didn’t know where he was born and we knew he was a US citizen just like Donald

cruz is not a citizen just like Trump. Trump is a Natural Born Citizen of the Untied States of America. cruz is a Naturalized citizen that had dual Canadian American status. There is a difference. My sister, who was born in Canada, is not a lawyer and constitutional expert, knew she had Canadian citizenship. She renounced it when she turned 18, but she was not looking to keep her options open as long as possible.

Clinton had nothing to do with NYC politics. The attempts to excuse his behavior are laughable.

Clinton was a NY State Senator and does indeed have connections to NYC. The Clinton Foundation from 2001 to 2011 was in Harlem, it is now in Central Manhattan. So even after Hillary was no longer a NY US Senator and became Obama’s Secretary of State, the Clinton Foundation with assets of approximately $200 Million is still located there.

Lots of influence is peddled there. Lots of money given to the Clintons for political influence and favors. You don’t think some of that Clinton money was used to help “key democratic political allies” in NYC and thus Trump giving Money to that foundation could be levied if he had zoning or other regularory issues with NYC.

Trump has 12 spokesmen. 6 of them are his relatives and the other 6 are black women.

The two Cubans have been tearing into Trump all day on his “connections” to Duke and not “immediately” disavowing him at the Jack Tapper gotcha interview. Rubio even called Trump a liar and said “of course he knew who David Duke was”. Rubio is now a mind-reader. If Trump shows up for the March 3 Fox “debate”, both the Cuban illegal immigrants will be allowed to raise hell for 10 minutes at Trump saying he’s not fit to be president because he secretly wants to be the Imperial Wizard of the United Klans of America.

Hitery Clinton and Burney Sanders weighed in today and said it was disgusting that Trump associates with the KKK.

I don’t seen to recall them or any other democrat saying a disparaging word about their very real former Grand Dragon of the KKK by the name of Robert Byrd. He was considered the grand ole man of the party and they bowed down to him.

The liberal press covered for Byrd... hid the truth from black members of Congress too. It was disgusting... Hollings of South Carolina was another one... he brought back the Confederate Battle Flag as a statement against the Civil Rights Movememt. He was never held accountable either...

David Duke almost won the governor of LA not too long ago, running as a republican.

Running against Edwin Edwards, which led to one of the greatest political bumper stickers ever, "Vote For the Crook - It's Important."

"not too long ago"

You must be as old as I am!

That was back in the day of Bush the Elder. LOL 25 years ago or so.

"Vote for the crook. It's important." Best bumper sticker ever. Edwards went to prison shortly after he was elected, didn't he?

I have not had the time to follow it closely, but I’ve gotten the impression that David Duke has undergone several incarnations in his stance on various political and social issues over a period of many years. But there’s a broader question that really should be discussed and resolved: If Duke or anyone else becomes an advocate of White interests, promoting the interests of White people but not disparaging members of other racial/ethnic groups, is that permissible? Or is that considered to be a racist endeavor, even though it is done by all other racial/ethnic groups? Stated differently, how is it okay for Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, Pacific Islanders, etc., but not Whites, to form organizations that promote their interests? I, for one, reject such a double standard and contend that groups of this type are either acceptable or not for everyone, including Whites. If that’s what David Duke is currently doing, then that should be okay in the same way as the activities of Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, La Raza, CAIR, and a host of other special interest advocates. Calling someone a racist for simply promoting the interests of his own group should not be taken seriously, including the case of David Duke, if that is all he’s doing. I have pride in my heritage and don’t feel compelled to apologize or remain silent simply because I’m not Black or Hispanic or Muslim, etc.

Sure don’t seen like that long ago. That crook Edwards was governor when I stationed at Barksdale AFB, LA in 1976.

Trump would be wise to yawn, and not allow the media to put him on the defense and pull his strings about anything, as they do others. Their mission is always to gain power by making politicians jump. He has no control over who supports him.

I admit I have NOT scrolled through the rest of this thread, but David Duke is now on record as saying he did NOT endorse Trump. It was all a TRAP.
