Da Donald is pretending not to know who David Duke is, (Grand Wizard Leader of KKK)
Without looking him up on Wikipedia all I know about the guy is at some point he had something to do with the KKK.
Is that enough to condemn him and tell him his vote isn't wanted, completely unprovoked? Just go on air and say "hey! You! David Duke guy! Yeah, we've never spoken but I don't want your vote! The anti defamation league is telling me you're racist and to condemn you...so I'm doing it on t.v."
When asked to renounce David Duke, Trump stated that he did not know who he was. What do you think?
I think based on the interview where this came from that Donald Trump did the best he could have.
It was basically:
"Gotcha!"
"I'm not going to play that game."
The "interview" was:
"the anti defamation league has asked you to publicly condemn unequivocally the racism of former kkk grand wizard david duke who recently said 'voting against you is treason to your heritage'...will you unequivocally condemn david duke and say you don't want his vote or other white supremacists in this election?"
"Just so you know I don't know anything about david duke or what you're talking about with white supremacy or supremacists did he endorse me or what's going on because I know nothing about david duke I know nothing about white supremacists and so you're asking me a question about people I know nothing about...."
"The question from the anti defamation league is even if you don't know about their endorsements there are these groups and individuals endorsing you would you just say unequivocally you condemn them and you don't want their support?"
"Well I'd have to look at the group. I don't know what group you're talking about. Who would want me to condemn a group I know nothing about? If you would send me a list of the groups I would do some research on them and certainly I would disavow if I thought there was something wrong but you may have groups in there that may be fine and it would be very unfair, so send me a list of the groups and I'll let you know."
"I'm just talking about david duke and the kkk."
"Honestly I don't know david duke, I don't believe I've ever met him, I'm pretty sure I've never met him, I just don't know anything about him."
Remember how much crap Obama got for beergate and treyvon martin for offering his opinion and sticking his nose where it really shouldn't have been, based on a lack of, or biased, information?
How about bush invading iraq?
You would be okay if Trump knee jerk reacted to "they're racists! You condemn them, right? You gotta do something about this right now! Don't think, you don't need information, just condemn, condemn, invade, err, condemn, I used the magic 'they're racists' words."
