Mr. Duke may have fewer followers, but he probably rejoices in having the President of the United States of America as one.

Why? If you're saying the White supremacists only follow David Duke, you'd be wrong, or intellectually dishonest.

David Duke is a fringe character. The other guy has a constituency.

Also, don't discount that followers can be bought and faked.

I have a very informational twitter acct. in a booming industry. I don't send out a lot of tweets - yet I only have 400 followers.

I wouldn't judge much by twitter numbers.

Can you prove that... or are you just making up what you want to be true?

Meanwhile, many Democrats are knowingly followers of Farrakhan.

The genesis of this story was the revelation that a photograph of then-Illinois Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) and Farrakhan at a 2005 Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) meeting was suppressed for years for political reasons.

...
In an interview with Peter Hasson, Rep. Danny Davis (D-IL) defended Farrakhan as an “outstanding human being.”

Now, you make the definite claim that 'many Democrats are knowingly followers of Farrakhan". Any proof for that?

you used 'probably' as a modifier of 'rejoices'

so you're saying it's uncertain that duke rejoices, but not uncertain that trump follows duke's tweets.

[WaldoKitty]

Fascinating to compare the two.
