Do David Duke, became a Republican, and he was "Inspired" by Trump...

but the left doesnt think other "democrats" will be inspired by him...

yeah because Trump asked him to, right? This is such a feeble attempt to pin this to trump its beyond laughable.....all you are doing is confirming your fears that may be realized this fall....let's hope so....it might be more entertaining to listen to you than him?

Democrats have wide and deep support from hate groups all over the US but all they seem to give a damn about is the KKK. I haven't seen or heard about the KKK actually doing anything in my lifetime but I've seen almost 10 police officers shot and killed in the last couple months by hate groups that support democrats and nobody on the left seems to give a damn.

Duke is running for political office in support of Trump's agenda. Why is that not a good thing? He's running for congress and would support Trump in the Senate.

yeap!!!! and the hypocrisy is that CNN never made a big deal about Byrd endorsing Democrats.....I never saw CNN ask Obama or Hillary to denounce Byrd's endorsement of them.


the hypocrisy from the liberal media.

Isn't hyperbole a great thing? All i did was post a quote that said David Duke was "inspired" by trump and people get all sideways. I didn't say Trump "asked him to," or the dumpster endorsed him...those were your words.

My guess is Duke was sitting home watching the convention and saw a black preacher kick off the convention and heard him invoking the name of God to get Hillary and the enemies of Trump. Then he watched as Flynn talked of "American Exceptionalism," followed by brain dead Rep Steve King talking about sub-groups not being as good as the white folks and suddenly he felt a kinship.

The kicker was when the Donald got up and started talking about "America First" and the duke wet his pants over finally finding someone who had the same values he had. No big deal, just kind of happenstance .

I'd be very interested in how this has anything to do with Donald's campaign.


I guess your parents and teachers didn't teach you that anybody can grow up to be president (or senator). The Idiot In Chief we have now did just that, and he is the most racist, unqualified person I can think of.


And one would hope everyone in America would be for America first. Guess that's another thing your people didn't teach you.

Trump supporters should be appreciative that Duke is running for congress supporting Trump. At least these supporters show some appreciation:
