It's just keeps getting more bizarre. Ex KKK leader David Duke announced he will run for the Louisiana senate this fall. This article in USA Today includes the details of his decision, but this cut pretty well sums it all up: Duke said in the video, “I’m overjoyed to see Donald Trump and most Americans embrace most of the issues that I’ve championed for years. My slogan remains America first.”

That sentence says it all about the Donald's campaign.So sad.

What inspired this clown is all the media coverage he has been given because the left wanted to attack Trump.

I think there's a better chance it was because the republican's were showing on the screen the tweets by white supremacists as trump was giving his speech last night. Obviously they were encouraged they were both standing in lock step as they marched forward together into the coming election.

I think he's running for the US Senate, not the Louisiana State Senate. Anyway, it's clear he's running on Trump's momentum and policies. He said so himself.

They have a lot in common -- mostly supporters.

Trump has made racism and bigotry acceptable in politics once again. I suspect that that's what he means when he says he wants to "Make America Great Again." He is hearkening back to the good old Archie Bunker days when you could say the most repugnant things and no one would blink an eye.

Obviously, Duke is hoping to ride that great big wave of intolerance that Donald created.
