The classic DJT is too smart for everybody argument. There are a few possibilities he did not know who David Duke was which if truth is a lot about his basic knowledge of the political world. He did know but didn’t want to offend anyone who falls David Duke unlikely I admit but still a possibility. And lastly he just won’t ever say anything that is firm and concrete as he blusters his way through as if no one will ever look up what you said before in at everything he says is always right and always will be. And sadly for many supporters of his that’s just the way they seem to work whenever he says the intrepid mean exactly what they wanted to mean the obvious implications of the statement are no consequences only how they feel about it.
Tapper said groups. It was “groups” that was the problem. The msm likes to throw in any groups that are anti-Obama.
I basically agree with you. It’s fascinating to watch the Trump people contort themselves to laud every single stupid thing he does.
Having said that, in this interview I think he was actually fine when they were asking about unspecified “white supremacist” groups. It was perfectly reasonable to say: “I don’t know who you’re talking about,” because who knows who the media might consider white supremacist.
The stupidity was when the interviewer mentioned the KKK and Trump wouldn’t answer. How hard is it to day “I disavow the KKK?”

You are spot on. Trump could throw heaps of manure all over his supporters and they would defend it.. Frenzied bunch
David Duke almost won the governor of LA not too long ago, running as a republican.
