Do they have TV sets at CNN? An Internet connection? I don't work at a television network, but I saw Trump "disavow" David Duke a half-dozen times before Jake Tapper asked him to disavow Duke again last Sunday.Ann Coulter . . . "The question served absolutely no journalistic purpose. No new information was sought. It was just a smear, for the sole purpose of getting the words "KKK" into the same sentence as "Donald Trump."
"Unsuspecting viewers who missed Trump's earlier disavowals are supposed to think, Is Trump connected with the Klan? Why else would they be asking him about David Duke?
"Given that Trump did disavow Duke the day before the Tapper interview, the only explanation for his refusal to do it again is that he was ticked off by the question and decided not to play ball. (Tip for journalists: When WASPs don't want to answer impertinent questions from reporters, they often say, "I don't know," rather than the more urban "go f---yourself.")
"How many times must Trump waste precious airtime "disavowing" some random person he doesn't know, has never met and never mentioned?
"David Duke IS a random person: The KKK has not been an organization of any significance since the mid-'60s (outside of Southern Poverty Law Center fundraisers), and David Duke hasn't been a member of this meaningless group since 1980.
"Also, David Duke has never been accused of rape. Hillary's most prominent supporter has. Will she be asked to disavow Bill Clinton? " . . .
Here is a regrettable election poster for the Democrat Party from the mid-19th century. From Scotty Starnes's Blog:
"As we know, liberal/progressives have a terrible memory when it comes to actual history. The Republican Party was founded to abolish slavery and oppose the pro-slavery Democratic Party. The same party who enacted Jim Crow laws, the KKK, lynching, poll taxes, and used segregation to hold down freed slaves. White liberal guilt is a cruel attribute."
