    Sure we know. But I would be surprise as hell if he had squat to do with the events in Orange County.

    Who do you think is a more attractive option to them? The other candidates who swiftly, consistently, and forcefully denounce the racist organizations or the one that says "I disavow, okay", then I'm not sure if I disavow or not I will have to look into it, Nevermind I disavow, I'm sorry I couldn't hear the question. It's like some sort of code for "hey racists I'm really with you, but I can't be very public about it okay or I won't win."

    Ha! You protest too much. I don't think you are going to vote for Trump no matter what he said.

    I don't have your mind reading and code breaking skills, apparently.

    If the KKK liked socialism, they'd support Sanders.

    So what?

    This bernie bros thing has lots of code in it.

    http://www.buzzfeed.com/evanmcsan/the-bernie-bros#.moMGWDVY0

    FAIRFIELD, Iowa — The internet is home to the best of the Bernie Sanders campaign — the grassroots, youth-powered, bottom-up energy of social media fueled Sanders’s challenge to Hillary Clinton.

    But the social web has also shown off the worst of Sanders supporters. Writing in her endorsement of Clinton this week, progressive writer Joan Walsh complained of harassment from online supporters of Sanders that the Vermont senator’s campaign aides have been aware of for months. Walsh called them “the Berniebot keyboard warriors,” but they’re more commonly referred to as the Bernie Bros.

    (MONTHS. It took that long for Sanders to disavow. Just wow).

    I don't know anything about what you're even talking about with white supremacy or white supremacists. So I don't know. I don't know—did he endorse me, or what's going on? Because I know nothing about David Duke; I know nothing about white supremacists.

    That would be what's known as a lie.

    ^^^

    Actually, your post is the lie.

    Or you simply cannot possibly know if he knew a thing about Duke.

    Back in 2000, Trump knew who David Duke was:

    The entire article is pretty interesting.

    You like the bit about "This is not the company I wish to keep" ?

    That's still 16 years ago.

    Knowing who David Duke was 16 years ago and remembering anything about him (he is really obscure) now is irrelevant.

    Yes, and if she is quoted as saying today "gay marriage? what's that? i don't know anything about that" you'll have a point, I suppose.

    Your excuse-making for Trump is impressive, perhaps you will join Mags as a full-on Trump fanboy soon.

    So, you think it is plausible that in 2000, Trump listed Duke as a reason he, Trump, wasn't going to run for president, but had forgotten about him so thoroughly by 2016 that 'the Klansman David Duke' did not ring any bells?

    You think it is plausible that Trump knows nothing of white supremacy?

    David Duke is not 'really obscure'. Anyone who follows politics, like you or me or Trump, for instance, immediately recognizes the name.

    Duke is well-known, especially to his fellow minor 1980s media stars like Trump. Anyone of Trump's age who read the news in the 80s knew of Duke's fame and TV appearances on talk shows. I used to watch him, and have kept up on his IRS problems. Of course, dumbbells who didn't read the news wouldn't know about him, but Trump and you don't fall into that category.

    I suppose he meets lots of people and hears about lots of people. Duke was in the news at the time due to the reform party being in the news. It's been 16 years since, and there's no reason to remember Duke if you don't care much about politics.

    I don't think he was saying he knows nothing about white supremacy. He knows nothing about them endorsing or supporting his candidacy. That's lie #2 on your part, barfo.

    I don't think Trump necessarily followed politics all along. That's lie #3. You want me to keep score? That's like 4 now.

    The last time I saw David Duke, he was on Free Speech TV, a very left wing outlet. Not a hit piece on him, they gave him a forum to talk.

    Explain that.

    Look at the post in this thread. This is why the reporter asked the dumb ass question abut Duke. Much fodder for the uber left to fondle.

    And for the record, I cannot stand the KKK or white supremacists. I think they are evil and scum of the earth. Period.

    And I hope they vote for Trump instead of Hillary. Give up the hate Denny, it will sap energy.
