Former Ku Klux Klan Leader David Duke Throws Support Behind Donald Trump
The Wrap ^ | August 25, 2015 | Itay Hod

Trump is “the best of the lot,” Duke says of GOP frontrunner

GOP frontrunner Donald Trump can count on at least one die-hard fan: former Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard David Duke.

Self described “racial realist,” Duke, praised Trump during a recent rant during his online radio show, calling the business mogul a “good salesman.”

Duke, who ran unsuccessfully for president as a Democrat in 1988 and later served in the Louisiana House of Representatives, also said he liked Trump because of “the fact that he’s come out on the immigration issue,” adding, “he’s an entrepreneur and he has a good sense of what people want to hear, what they want to buy.”

While Duke admitted Trump’s proposals could be a political ploy to get the nomination, he agreed with the real estate mogul’s policies aimed at mass deportation of undocumented immigrants, calling him “the best of the lot” among the crowded GOP primary field.

After complaining about the “Jewish domination” of the media, Duke said Trump is telling it like it is.

“Trump, he’s really going all out. He’s saying what no other Republicans have said, few conservatives say.”

Trump’s campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

You can't stop someone from endorsing you. I wouldn't put it past Karl Rove or someone similar paying Duke to do this.

David Duke is a longtime DemonRAT who actually is aligned with the views of anti-Israel commie Bernie Sanders. Duke also is pro-union. He’s truly satanic.

The way duke whines about “juice” all the damned time it is almost like some kid beamed him in the head with a carton on apple juice and he never let it go. Duke is such a whiny pansy arse.

Every other word out of the sick aholes yap is juice this juice that.

He’s simply a liberal. Like half the country, and doing what liberals do. Mothers, fathers, sons and daughters. Husbands and wives.

Liberals ALL belong in cages for the safety of the human race.

Yes this article seems to be an answer to a question that nobody asked...right out of left field. Maybe next they will hold a seance with Hitler to find out if he likes Trump.

Frankly I consider liberals as less than human and, therefore -- like you -- think it is wise and prudent to secure them in cages and/or detention camps.

No one likely to support Trump will be concerned about this nonsense.

Anyway, Obozo was supported by close friends that are known terrorists.

Where’s that ugly photo of the Friend-of-Zero standing on the American flag? This is the perfect retort to some news Marxist when they bring this up...they will shut their mouths quickly.

What you are going to see is the law of unintended consequenses/self fulfilling prophecy, in action.

Trump is no more racist than my dog. Most people on the loosely collective right are no more racist than my dog. But when you start telling them they are, you will give racism credence because people are sheep. If their neighbor likes a thing, they like it to in order to feel accepted.

Liberals are CREATING racism by falsely attributing it where it isn’t. And considering how fed up people are with their world, it will not be a hard bridge to cross for many.

Its existential. We either contain them or find some way to otherwise separate them from humanity or they will destroy it. All one needs to do is look who and what mindset started every war in history, doeesthe crimes etc.

It ain’t us Reaganist types.

Eventually we will fight them just as we will fight Islam.
Same people really.

For once, Team Trump may be stumped.

Should be interesting to see how Team Trump handles this.

They better answer fast, or else the media may smell blood in the water, or wherever.

I think what this definitely makes obvious is that TRUMP is crossing boundries, barriers, and party lines because he is MAKING SENSE to practically everyone.

With friends like these...

What happened Tuesday? Trump’s getting slammed with tons of negative headlines. The gloves are off. Bing is headlining this one in their news feed.

David Duke is free to endorse anyone he likes.

That and $0.10 cents will buy you... well, nothing.
