Seriously, though: the Bannon choice is incredibly concerning.

[arch stanton]

Groups like the KKK promote a racial and ethnic purity that's getting rarer to find so naturally they become a smaller percentage of the population. And since most of the people who are KKK eligible based on race and ethnicity are Republicans it's not surprising that people who want to badmouth the Republicans would point out the correlation. I'm more interested in how he plans to implement the policies that he promoted in a vacuum when they all start clashing with each other in reality.

[InsideThePark]

It's not just the KKK, other White supremacists groups loved the Bannon appointment. They feel like they're being represented.

I mean let's not be naive - Trump pandered to them, which is why they put out robo calls for him throughout the campaign.

Lol.

[InsideThePark]

Why do you think he didn't disavow David Duke, MAGA? Are you dumb enough to believe that he didn't know who he was during that interview? He was given three chances and he passed.

[Jay]

Trump disavowed Duke and KKK, so WTF are you talking about.

Keep hanging onto that racist thing though, it's good for your health.

This was right before the South Carolina primary. Nationally televised interview - he obviously didn't want to lose the racist vote.

[Stradling]

Yea, I am sure a lot of candidates try to lose votes during their campaign.

You're freaking clueless. He's either being overly careful about who he disavows or he did it to get more free media attention for when he unequivocally disavows them (which he did several times).

 

If you think he's pandering to the KKK you're a complete idiot.

Lol, he knew full well who he was. But I know it makes you a bit uneasy to come to grips with the fact that you voted for the guy who ran a racist campaign. If it makes you more comfortable to keep denying it, by all means continue.

[Make Angels Great Again]

You can keep repeating that until you're blue in the face, won't make it any more true.

It's how Trump should have handled it. He never aggressively disavowed them.

[Make Angels Great Again]

 

[Blarg]

Now it is he needed to aggressively disavow them instead of simply giving them the amount of attention 5,000 disenfranchised voters deserved. The Klan is simply irrelevant to politics these days.

Of course that video was good enough for a Trump apologist lol. You believe anything he says...  just like another candidate who came up short.

If he had done it the first time, it wouldn't have gotten so much attention. Instead he played dumb.

That's not aggressive enough. He should have had one of Hillary's henchmen arrange a single car accident for Duke.

Keep beating that racist drum... it will just get worse for the libs/Dems.

Are you the kind of gal that needs a "I'm really sorry", when "sorry" will do?

So you complain that he doesn't disavow, but when he does you don't believe him. hahaha.

You must be talking about your girl Hillary coming up short, nah she's the biggest liar in Washington, I never believed her.

 

[arch stanton]

The campaign is over and with it went the time for pinning labels. It's now time to start picking apart his policies and actions.

[Jay]

It was kind of funny in that video when Don Lemon stumbled on the word 'shibboleth' and said, "I'm just now reading this..." he had no clue what the word means.

I admit I didn't know what 'shibboleth' means either... but if I was going get into an argument with somebody I might look it up first.

Fail.

You implied that it was okay for him to not let the racist vote slip away. Reagan took the high road while he played footsies with them.
