...suppose there was a serial killer on death row someplace and he announced his support for Hillary. Would she be responsible for that? Not hardly. Neither is Trump responsible for everyone who gives him an endorsement.

...as far as Trump lying, your probably right. Lying among the politicos seems to be a way of life. As far as I know Trumps lies didn't get anyone killed. When it comes to lying, the clintons have a patent on that.

ribit,

here's the problem, Trump did/does know about the KKK!
He wanted 'any' votes, any....
He should scare the crap out of you & the rest!

....
But if he really needs to do research on Duke and his ilk – and I envision Trump hunched over a laptop, hunt-and-pecking for "Duke" and K-K-K in Google – he can start with the oped that he penned for the Times on February 19, 2000 (h/t Justin Green) explaining why he was not going to seek the Reform Party nomination. He wrote about how America might be "ready for a businessman president" and how exploring such a run was the "greatest civics lesson that a private citizen can have" before growing concerned about the Reform Party's "fringe element" including "Elvis look-alikes, resplendent in various campaign buttons and anxious to give me a pamphlet explaining the Swiss-Zionist conspiracy to control America."

He concluded:

I leave the Reform Party to David Duke, Pat Buchanan and Lenora Fulani. That is not company I wish to keep.
Duke was so well-known that Trump didn't feel the need to identify him in the oped, though he had several days earlier when issuing a statement withdrawing from the race: "The Reform Party now includes a Klansman, Mr. Duke, a neo-Nazi, Mr. Buchanan, and a communist, Ms. Fulani," he said then. "This is not company I wish to keep." Well 16 years is a long time (even if Trump does have "the world's greatest memory"). Maybe Trump, unique among Americans who aren't brain-dead, has forgotten who Duke is, what the Klan is.
