Barack Obama was endorsed by the Communist Party USA (CPUSA) in 2012. That was reported then by Fox (or at least by WND via Fox), but not by CNN.
Communist Party Endorses Obama For 2012 - Fox Nation

Now Trump is endorsed, or at least praised, by David Duke, and CNN reports it, but not Fox. This would seem to say much more about Fox and CNN than about either Obama, Trump, Democrats, or Republicans.

I love this kind of stuff, please by all means leftists and cuckservatives continue to do this kind of crap. The whole "racist evil white neo-nazi" shtick is losing effectiveness. Trump is the philosopher's stone of taboo subjects and anything detractors throw in his face just immediately makes him more popular.

OK, so I finally had to google 'cuckservative' to find out what it was. It sounds like it is one of those terms like 'neocon' that is ill-defined and means different (and usually nebulous) things to different people. But the gist seems to be that 'cuckservative' is, as Wikipedia puts it:

Quote:
primarily used by those on the American political far-right. The term is used to criticize other conservatives and/or Republicans, whom they believe to hold positions which are at odds with authentic conservatism,
The irony here is that by this definition, Donald Trump would be the epitome of 'cuckservative.' He has supported gun control, soak-the-rich taxation, single payer (fully socialized) health care, confiscation of private property by big gov't/big business etc. He's generally to the left of any of the other GOP candidates with the possible exception of Kasich and maybe one or two others.

Did you not read the article you posted?

Quote:
Duke, who previously served in the Louisiana statehouse and ran for U.S. Senate
in that state, did not endorse Trump and said Trump remains untrustworthy for
his "deep Jewish connections" and support for Israel.

Ahh, so you give power to the KKK to make decisions for you.

Sigh. Another thread, another missed point by you.

Mr. Trump has simply evolved over time. A lot. And he will continue to evolve once in office, probably back in the other direction like a pendulum. Love the guy.

Yes, absolutely, my voting decision will hinge on who the KKK supports, though to be fair, I would have to give due consideration to the Aryan Brotherhood, Hell's Angels, Westboro Church, Freemasons and the fans of the My Little Pony franchise.

This is the bottom line. I have never heard of a candidate being judged by who endorses them. A lot is being taken for granted in that members of the KKK may have other concerns other than race. I am endorsing Trump and my best friend is black and I haven't talked to her but I know she loathes Obama with a passion.

Imagine the horror if you were running for local office and the town drunk or prostitute endorsed you? That would make you just like them and your chance of winning would be zero. Does that make sense?

We all know the issue here is that they cannot find anything on Trump as yet even working 24/7 to dig something up.

You know the desperate always come across poorly.
