    Duke is an idiot. He has ran as a Dem and as a Rep.

    Are you asking the same thing about Hillary? The KKK Grand Wizard Wigg endorsed Hillary. Are you concerned that KKK members have donated $20,000 to Hillary? They did. You know what they say actions speak louder than words. And Money talks what does it say to you and other Hillary supporters.

  • Actually...the truth is:

    A man claiming to be a Ku Klux Klan Grand Dragon told several media outlets that the KKK had changed their political allegiance from Donald Trump to Hillary Clinton and had donated $20,000 to the latter's campaign.

    The man claiming to be a Ku Klux Klan Grand Dragon made statements of questionable legitimacy and provided no evidence that they were anything but a media hoax.

    Those are the facts. 

    What is also true...

    If I post any article from any media outlet disputing the fact, it will be dismissed as "liberal media bias" and if a link is posted stating it is factual, it is most likely a right-wing publication and it will be dismissed as "right wing bias"

    Another Fact:  David Duke is a Republican and David Duke does support Trump, as does: 

    • The Daily Stormer, a leading neo-Nazi news site
    • Richard Spencer, director of the National Policy Institute, which promotes the “heritage, identity, and future of European people
    • Brad Griffin, a member of Hill’s League of the South and author of the popular white supremacist blog Hunter Wallace
    • Jared Taylor, editor of American Renaissance, a Virginia-based white nationalist magazine
    • Michael Hill, head of the League of the South, an Alabama-based white supremacist secessionist group

    Let's start being honest about Trump and the make-up of a large number of his followers. Hillary is not the ideal candidate, but it is very, very, very dubious that a white supremacist would support her, let alone give her $20K

    As you know Rosie, Trump is not my guy, neither is HRC. Objectively what that does to me is open my eyes to what other disgusting voters are voting and not just for Trump, but the disgusting ones voting for Hillary too.

    You're welcome atj and thank you for your thoughtful reply. :) Mitt Romey was supposedly a shoe-in and he lost in 2012. His wife was so bitter about it. The TV GOP pundits who had insisted he would win looked foolish as he**. Jeb was supposed to be the shoe-in this time and if it weren't for Trump I wonder if Jeb would be the GOP prez candidate? We shall never know.

    The KKK Grand Wizard Wigg? I have never heard of this person m2c. Whereas David Duke has been in the news for many years. Where did you dig Wigg up and what are your sources? Thank you for your reply.

    ((hugs)) As you can see one respondent fell into that trap and said The Grand Wizard Wigg supported Hillary and donated money. So the lies work all the time and those who promulgate them are ignorant they ARE ALL LIES. They lap up the propaganda without thought because it suits them. Shame on them. Thank you for your thoughtful and informaative reply GJ and Happy Friday! :)

  • Well KKK leader Will Quigg has endorsed Hillary Clinton. 

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/12192975...

    Does that make you have doubts? No, I didn't think so, and I don't blame you for ignoring it. The opinions of one nutcase are neither here nor there. They shouldn't be taken seriously.

    What is more significant is when a politician has a relationship with someone of questionable character.

    Hillary's "friend and mentor" Senator Byrd was a former KKK member. Hillary gave this glowing eulogy when he died.

    Scopes does not rule it as false. They say it is "unproven" Fact is the KKK Grand whatever Wigg did say in an interview that the KKK has endorsed Clinton and claims the KKK donated $20,000. Now you can believe that or not. That is what the unproven part is.

    Now we do know another former KKK Grand Wizard who was friends with Clinton. Who Clinton has sung the praises. He is not alive today to endorse Hillary but he would.

    Dem Sen ByrdByrd once announced:

    “I shall never fight in the armed forces with a negro by my side … Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds.”

    As Hillary opined, “Senator Byrd was a man of surpassing eloquence and nobility.” And, “It is almost impossible to imagine the United States Senate without Robert Byrd. He was not only its longest serving member. He was its heart, its soul, and it’s historian.”

    Why does Hillary Clinton get a pass for her friendship with a former, high-ranking KKK member?

    She nor anyone in the Dem party has disavowed Byrd.Rep call Duke out all the time. Trump has spoke out against Duke many times over the years.

    Just because you have not heard of him doesn't mean he doesn't have that position. Sad that these type of groups exist. It was not hard to find... google Hillary KKK it will come up. That and the other KKK Grand Dragon Dem Sen Robert Byrd.

  • Really? You actually believe the KKK would donate to Clinton?  Is that because you want to believe it or because you are intentionally providing propaganda knowingly manufactured to create discord and defame?

    Before I go on...I Am not a fan of Clinton and feel the best way to show that a person's lack-of OR poor character & qualifications make them unfit for POTUS is to present real facts with evidence to backup the claim.

    As I pointed out...it's a bogus story. and HIGHLY improable (AND THAT IS INDEED WHAT sNOPES SAID) ...especially (after I pointed out) there is absolutely no record of the individual as a KKK member (let alone existing) nor any trace of the supposed "$20,000". 

    Prove me wrong...provide official proof of the transaction

    The Imperial Grand Dragon of the KKK officially endorsed Trump and so do the rest of the orgaization. That in itself makes the story even more unbelievable.

    AARRGGHH! And the beat goes on. And the blind continue to remain blind. Because seeing what is really there is not acceptable. Thank you for trying but as you can see those who need the truth absolutely will never accept it. It is wasted breath. They cannot be reached. They are beyond that GJ! :)

  • Which highlights why Hillary should not have won the primary and Bernie Sanders whould be the candidate.

    Trump would be in single digits in the polls.

    Guilt by association is completely fallacious, why would I lend any merit to it?

    I suspect David Duke also uses a cell-phone, perhaps even an I-Phone. Is that too magically imbued with negative, insidious attributes? Is the maker inherently discriminatory by virtue of the fact that he their product?

    Sounds pretty kooky to me.

    Ain't that the truth. This whole election has been mega revealing of just how malleable politicians are. The GOP worked over time to shut down Ron Paul delegates in the 2012 and keep them bound when the rules allowed them vote their conscience. This election, they did everything they could to unbind the delegates so they could oust Trump. And now we see happening to Sanders the very same thing that happened to Ron Paul.

    At least they said Sanders name at the convention, they wouldn't even say Ron Paul's name aloud at the 2012 GOP convention :(
