She was just trying to bait him. If he doesn't say anything then he supports the KKK. If he goes along with Hillary, then she is running the narrative of the campaign, after she got a lot of criticism for the deplorable comments. I'd just ignore her too.

So let's get this straight.
  • David Duke no longer involved with KKK for many decades. Trump campaign called deplorable or whatever because they won't denounce David Duke.
  • Hillary Clinton calls ex-KKK and Grand Dragon, Robert Byrd, her "mentor & friend". Says it's OK because he is no longer involved with the KKK.
Typical Hillary Clinton double standard held by her supporters.

I find it ironic that all the same people that say the football players have a right to not stand for the pledge of allegiance but condemn someone for not calling out someone they find despicable.

Then there is this. The machinery is doing everything it can to distract from Hillary's medical/drinking issues. Seems that some of you here are either falling for it, or are a part of it.

Byrd left the KKK decades ago and spent the remainder of his life (he's gone, you do realize, died six years ago) apologizing and denouncing the KKK. I was certainly no fan of his even after that, however. Duke is alive and well and STILL involved with white supremacy groups (unapologetic, by the way) particularly targeting Jewish people. Deplorable, you betcha. Frightening and disgusting.

If the KKK isn't deplorable, then what is?

Hillary Clinton: "If you won’t say the KKK is deplorable, you have no business running the country."
First off, David Duke renounced the KKK decades ago. Secondly, BLM are worse than KKK because they are causing the deaths of hundreds of people while KKK is not. In the battle of deplorables, Hillary's voters win in a landslide.

Nope. Hillary campaign said KKK. So Double Standard.

It's raised now simply to distract from Hillary's health/substance abuse issues.

David Duke is still involved with white supremacy, he just makes it sound more pleasant now. In 1980 left the Klan and formed the NAAWP. He has also pushed conspiracy theories about "Jewish banking" and "promotion of homosexuality" by Jews.

What does that even mean?

He's a private citizen allowed to hold whatever opinion he likes. Are you saying that he is committing illegal acts against those demographics?

You can keep your filthy David Duke. Keep him far away from me and from other decent people. The man is alive and well, still a racist and anti-semite. You want to claim him? Go ahead.
