With a former KKK wizard on your side, what could possibly go wrong? I think I remember some conservatives in denial about the white supremacy movement supporting the combover. Here's yet another example the racists and bigots that infect the republican party are sure to ignore and perhaps agree with.

Republicans, you brought this on yourself. You allowed racist, ignorant carnival barkers to assume front runner status in your party. The GOP will consign itself to the dustbin of history if it continues down this course. I say good, perhaps then we can have some real progress.

 

David Duke's reply, direct from his Facebook page(!?), typos and all:

100 major media articles about me today, but not one dared to call to call me and interview on why White Americans are overwhelmingly supporting Donald Trump.
They are obviously afraid to hear the logical reasons I offer.
1) Because we must secure our border
2) Because we break the power of the Jewish Federal Reserve and predator banks Goldman Sachs that are robbing us blind.
3) Because we are tired of massive Jewish money and lobbies controlling American politics
4) Because we sick and tired of Zio Wars
5) Because we don't war Word War III with Russiia
6) Because like every people on Earth, White people have a right to preserve their heritage, their nations, their values, and provide for a decent, not a THIRD WORLD future for our children.
7) Because Trump exposes the lies of a controlled media and a controlled opposition media (Fox News)
Even the New York Times admits that the Republican rank and file have adopted my political programs. Donald Trump has the same positions I had in 1992 in the primaries where even though I was illegally kept out of debates I scored lot more support than Paul, Carson and others in primaries I was not illegally kept out of.
The fact that Trump (and others) say what I say almost 25 years ago does not make him bad, but it makes me pretty damn good.
By the way, you can read my essays and hear my interviews before the Iraq War in 2002 -2003 saying there were no weapons of mass destruction that the war in Iraq would be a disaster of America.
In every election I ever ran in starting in the 1970s I preached the necessity of securing our borders and the catastrophe that would befall our nation if we went to war.
Dr. David Duke

 

Who cares what he says? This is a junk topic thread, nothing else. Plenty of wackos support Clinton too.

 

I have to give credit where credit is due.

David Duke has made a career for himself being an ignorant, racist (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*). While most folks, such as Tom Metzger or that dip(*)(*)(*)(*) that wanted to start a white town, let their ignorance and bigotry consume them, ending up looking like even bigger buffoons than they are.

However, through e power of plastic surgery and a plethora of other stupid people, Duke has maintained his empire for a couple of decades. Perhaps he saw the rise of the internet and realized that most racists, white nationalists, and white supremacists are cowards that like to live in anonymity, and hence exploited them to his gain.

 

And the BLM heads are endorsing Democrats.......so what?

"““I’m not saying I endorse everything about Trump, in fact I haven’t formally endorsed him. ”"

And who cares what David Duke says anyway?

 

Is he any different than Robert Byrd?

 

In all fairness... Trump can't help who endorses him.. Palin endorsed him and I thought he looked embarrassed.

 

So he supports Hillary and Sanders about the big banks.....guess that makes them both racist bigots then.
He agress with them on defending Isreal and our involvement in the ME...................guess that makes them both racist bigots then.
He agrees with them on lobbyist and big money in politics.................guess that makes them both racist bigots.
He wants to appease Russia and be friends wtih them............maybe that is where Hillary got her reset idea since she supports his view.
He thinks races have a right to perserver their heritage, their nations, the values just like Hillary and Sanders think blacks should be able to do supporting not just Duke but Al Sharpton too.

People how live in glass houses....................

 

I have other reasons to dislike Trump. Duke's endorsement seems a tad unfair as I don't think Trump is any more racist than the others in this race. I know he didn't solicit the endorsement.

 

I know you progressives think the KKK is still out lynching and looking for yards to burn crosses in, but the fact of the matter is that nothing the KKK, former or current, says or does is relevant to anyone besides their small count of members and left wing extremists.

 

The kkk always supports the republican candidate. These types of groups are their base.

Nothing surprising here.

 

I disagree. If you are racist, bigoted and ignorant enough that a KKK grand wizard agrees with you, that's a problem with your policies. He should just get the dog whistle nonsense over and have david duke up on stage with him. Maybe he can grow a little mustache (tobacco stained color to match his hair) in hitler fashion, and start wearing an armband.

 

The KKK was born out of the Democratic Party.

Learn some history.

 

Maybe he could just drop out of the race since Duke endorsed him. Heh. You guys get so scared over nothing. I bet you had/will have gray hair by the time you're 30. That stress and worrying will age you quickly. Look at Hillary.

 

I know the history of the parties quite well. The parties went through a shift long ago and the KKK went with the Dixiecrats (thurmond) which was absorbed into the modern republican party. They've been voting republican for a very, very long time.

Nice try though.

 

She's the kind that pushes history aside to push her agenda in front.

Which has nothing to do with anything.

 

I'm glad we corrected your false statement: "the kkk(sic) always supports the republican candidate."

 

Stupid people! Pay attention!

The KKK is the terrorist wing of the DEMOCRATIC PARTY!!!

David Duke who started as a DEMOCRAT politician, became
a shill republican plant of the democrats. Nobody is buying
your stupidity.

The GOP destroyed the KKK, so the KKK doesn't like the GOP.

So is it any surprise that the Democrat's terrorist wing that for
decades lynched blacks and white REPUBLICANS is now
acting the shill for DEMOCRAT PARTY?!

The Democratic Party has a long history of racism.

Democratic Party's record on Race
Democratic Party's record on Race Part II

Black people - stop voting for the racist Democratic Party. They
think you are stupid! You are too stupid to obtain a valid government
ID according to them. You don't know how to vote because you are
so stupid according to them. You are too stupid to compete in school
according to them. All the while they have hijacked the Civil Rights
Movement and are giving all the money that should go to blacks for
all the Civil Rights violations that they did for decades, and giving that
money to women and gays and transgenders and Mexicans and
illegal aliens and tons of other special interest groups! Hillary hates
black people. She called them "superpreditors"!

Just take a look at all the crimes against black people that the democrats
are responsible for by clicking the links above.

We don't care what kind of propaganda the democrats KKK party says
about Donald Trump - DON'T BELIEVE THEIR LIES!!!

The GOP had never been associated with the KKK, just look at the record!

The Democrat Part has!!!

They let the KKK take over their Convention in 1924!

They appointed a KKK lawyer to the Supreme Court!

They had a President of the United States who was a member of the KKK!

 

So wouldn't the best thing for you to do is sit down and shut up??

When did Duke say - Legacy of Racism"? OR, is your Title a LIE?

 

lol, the last RNC convention, the very few black people that were there had peanuts thrown at them.

Black people will in large majority vote Democratic and racists will vote republican.

Just like always.

I love watching republicans try to pretend they aren't bigots...as if anyone's gonna fall for it.

I come from a black family...we'll all be voting for the Democratic candidate...we all vote straight Dem ticket every....single....time.

 

This is proof that Democrats are a bunch of liars.

No, there is nothing surprising here.

- - - Updated - - -

I bet you will, you don't vote for black republicans over old mean white democrats that
once owned you grandparents.

 

Obama is buddies with Bill Ayers, a bona fide nail bomb America attacking terrorist.

 

Don't bet on it. Remember people laughed at Reagan but even a so so actor can make it to be president in the USA USA USA USA

 

I think what everyone here is ignoring, is that bananas are actually quite bad for you.

 

This is another big fat propaganda lie of the racist Democratic Party. Senator Strom Thurmond was never, ever a member of the KKK! That is a lie. Senator Robert Byrd, a DEMOCRAT, was.

We have never been for the KKK, segregation, Jim Crow Laws or
any of the other crap that the Democratic Party fought in favor of
for decades.

The parties never switched, NEVER!

Republicans, conservatives, the Tea Party, they are the racists in America today. That's what liberals and democrats would like you believe. This argument, in spite of it's complete inaccuracy, is becoming more and more popular with liberals as a tool to shut down debate. Playing the race card is becoming more of first line of attack, rather than a trump card to be used strategically.

Blacks started voting democrat in the 1910's and white Southern democrats didn't start voting for republicans until the 80's and 90's. This was not a result in a change of party philosophies but a change of demographics and individual political beliefs over decades.

Blacks were disenfranchised in the South. Democratic White Primaries, poll taxes and literacy testing imposed by democrats prevented blacks from voting from 1890 to 1964. LBJ refused to seat disenfranchised black delegates from Mississippi at his 1964 National Democratic Convention in which he was nominated, just months after signing the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Republicans did try to pass civil rights legislation, voting rights and anti-lynching laws. Democrats stopped those efforts. I have documented these things in my threads*:

I could go into the history of the different issues before 1900 and why I think republicans represented conservatism then and the democrats liberalism then, but unless you are saying the parties switched before 1900, that would undermine the entire "Southern Strategy" thesis.

Republicans are the conservative party, then and now. Democrats are the liberal party, then and now.

Republicans fought for liberty. This is why some refer to early republicans as liberals, because it was considered a concept in line with the Enlightenment. In order for freedom to exist, you need to have a limited form of government, with checks and balances to prevent tyranny. The 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments were designed to give individuals power and limit the power of governments over them, federal and state. Nothing has changed.

Democrats fought for slavery.

I always hear liberals try to claim that the parties switched. It's a rather cynical way for democrats to take credit for republican moves. They did not switch. Whenever this claim is made, I always ask one question, when did they switch? Not one liberal has ever answered when they switched. Why? Because they never did.

The Republican Party of today is the party of Lincoln. It's the same party. If you agree with Lincoln's philosophy that all men are created equal, then you agree with the Republican Party of today, which believes the same.

If you believe the Republican Party was once the liberal party, when did they switch?

If you believe the Democratic Party was once the conservative Party, when did they switch?

If you have trouble answering that question, it's because it never happened.

I've covered much of this history in The Myth of the Southern Strategy.

If Eisenhower was liberal, you wouldn't know it from the 1952 Republican Party Platform:

Fact: The Democrat Party has been the liberal party for over 100 years.
Fact: The KKK was the terrorist wing of the Democratic Party.
Fact: Robert Byrd was a liberal democrat and a member of the KKK.
Fact: The KKK was strongest (2.6 million members) During Woodrow Wilson.
Fact: Woodrow Wilson played "Birth of a Nation" in the White House.
Fact: FDR appointed a KKK lawyer to the United States Supreme Court
Fact: Truman was a member of the KKK.
Fact: The Democrat liars will say the parties switched after the 1964 Civil Rights Act which the GOP voted for in higher percentages than Democrats, but in 1972 they almost nominated an avid racist pro-segregationist, Governor George Wallace for President of the United States! What party would do that? Republicans never did anything that disgusting, but the Democrat Party gets a pass!

This is the truth, not propaganda.

LBJ was a segregationist. He and Kennedy were against the 1957 Civil Rights Act. He signed the Civil Rights Act on July 2, 1964. Then in August of 1964, he kicked the black delegates from Mississippi out of his nominating convention.

In this excerpt from the Kennedy-Nixon debates, Nixon is asked about Kennedy's record on civil rights. He points out that Johnson was against civil rights legislation:

Let's have a look at their party platforms from 1960 and see which party is for de-segregation, and who is just paying lip service for it:

Democratic Party:

Eight years later, the Kennedy-Johnson Era, there was no desegregation. The promises were broken.

Republican Party:

By his first year in office, Nixon had desegregated most of the schools. Republicans were right, the democrats were just using the 3 years target date as a pretense. Nixon and republicans kept the promise in 1969.
