I'm not bitter.... I'm just trying to avoid selling everything and moving off the grid to "The Apocolypse Ranch".... although Mrskjam22 would be completely happy on the ranch. And it is a nice, beauiful place... but you hate to see America completely collapse. A lot of people don't have a ranch to move to.

And, I would miss all of the trumpsters crying in a couple of years when they figure out they were scammed by a casino owner, fake school, mobster, real estate fraud, con man ..... who doesn't build a wall or deport anybody.

Yes... the ku klux klan was absolutely mentioned. You did not listen to enough of it.

There are probably forty countries in the world that are run by thugs or dictators....

And so far Trump has had good things to say about most of them.

After a while....you will end up repudiating things enough, that you hire one single guy to write daily texts for the daily repudiation ‘talk’.

We're not talking about foreign thugs or dictators. Trump has already made his appreciation known about them. We're talking about the Ku Klux Klan and associated white supremacist organizations. Their endorsement of Trump and Trump's less-than-half-hearted repudiation. If the Black Panthers had endorsed him would Trump have had so much trouble denouncing them? He's all over Black Lives Matter and his criticism of them; he doesn't have the same feelings towards David Duke and the Klan?

Next question would have to Trump: But you both support the same positions, yadda, yadda. This was a hit job. No win situation for Trump.

So the solution is to handle it in a way guaranteed to provide endless campaign commercials for the Democrats in the fall? Good thinking. </sarcasm>

I listened to it and at no point was the question, “Do you endorse the KKK?” or “Do you repudiate the KKK?”, asked by that moderator.

We all know that opposition hires David Duke to endorse people in every election.

Wake up.

Now you know that at times it is.

So...being dumb is better at times. Just what I want in a president. We all have to hope that dumb doesn't kick in at the wrong moment.

Trump could have handed the smear job better.

FRiend, you need to understand where this is headed. The GOPe fully intend to throw the election to Hillary using stuff like this. Aim your fire at the real enemy. It’s not Trump.

Why does trump have to denounce anything? Are we also going to denounce all the non-white race based groups? Or is it only whites who have to play this game?

“So like media matters do you prefer Hillary to Trump? Honest question.”

Seriously? I HATE Hillary. I HATE Bill and the entire KKKlinton crime family! Given that bad choice would pick Trump over Hillary in a minute.

Trump’s stereotype in his mind of the south is a bunch of good ole boys riding around with hoods on and going to klan meetings. He was afraid he would lose votes if he went against David Duke and the Klan. A typical politican, not wanting to lose votes.... in his case, even Klan votes.

To: Whenifhow

exactly.
No mention hardly of Sessions endorsing Trump as the media knows it helps Trump, especially in the south.

The media are doing what a couple of freepers are doing now and keep asking the Duke question when they know the answer .
it’s all about trying to twist the facts to suit their purpose, but I would never have thought a couple of freepers would have done the liberal cry racism trick.
Oh and a mafia partnership LOL

Trump repudiated David Duke’s endorsement in August 2015.

And then claimed not to know who he was in February 2016.

He is not asked if he disavows the KKK. I just listened again. Such a question is not asked at all.

He says he doesn’t know anything about David Duke.

Apparently, he doesn’t trust that talking head on anything and wants to check it out himself.

David Duke is hired to endorse people. I assume Rubio, Cruz, the establishment, the Barbors, or the Clintons made that hire.

So who’s your candidate? I see you prattling on about movies and bashing Trump but not supporting a candidate here. Who do you support now?

I think he was simply not trusting that talking head about anything.

I don’t blame him. I don’t trust them either.

The questioner said “Specifically I’m talking about David Duke and the Ku Klux Klan”..... after asking Trump about white supremacist groups. And trumpy said he didn’t know David Duke... yada yada yada.... which is a lie. He knows who Duke is.. he was afraid of alienating voters. That’s it. It’s that simple.

That isn't Trump's style.

We all know that and yet again and again Trump makes their job easier. So shouldn't he be criticized for doing that?
