Yes, Donald is a robe wearing racist. Keeps Nazi flags in his basement where he masturbates to crush videos.
Glad you cleared that up! Not going to ask how you know.
The question seems reasonable, as some KKK sort of groups have endorsed trump, and maybe some person who is a voter would like to know what he thinks of them. Of course, if he denounced the KKK, he might lose more votes than he would gain, tho.
It seems with trump, any question that he doesn't like is a 'gotcha' question. Maybe someone should post a new thread asking who on CD would denounce the KKK and see how many people respond saying it is a 'gotcha' question.
There are currently about 5,000 KKK members. But there are many more people who agree with their philosophy to varying degrees. His disavowal could alienate many voters.
He said he couldn't denounce groups that he knows nothing about. He said if he researches them, and they are involved in wrongdoing, he would denounce them.
Lol. Is Trump so stupid as to not know who the KKK is? Tapper specifically referenced the KKK.

What I would have said is "Jake, it's a stupid question and if you can't do better than this your network needs to ask for a refund of some of your salary".
The correct answer is - YES, I denounce the KKK and what they stand for. Bottom line, he didn't want to cheese off his base.

See because while we're all talking about Trump and his gall not to know about the KKK all the attention is again on Trump with free press and attention while his opponents are left again in the shadows having to pay for such air time and attention.
gotta give Donald his props for knowing how to really play the media
I have given him props many times for his manipulation of the media. He is a master at this.
