Trump was lobbed a softball question to distance himself from his racist supporters and keep the KKK stench off hos candidacy, and he whiffed yuge - three times!
It makes it seem as if Trump is sympathetic to racists or at least tribalism based on ancestry. Trump gave the media all they could want to characterize him as the candidate of white racism, Hitler 2.0 and the thin-skin head for president. Get ready for more "make America white again" and "make America hate again" parody. THe press has already tried to disparage the tea-party as racist, Trump is the proof.
Tell that to all Trump's exquisite black spokeswomen. :)
