David Duke: Ex-KKK leader says he would like to serve as Donald Trump's secretary of state

David Duke, the former Ku Klux Klan leader and white supremacist who sparked controversy by backing Donald Trump, has made the startling admission that he would like to serve as the tycoon’s secretary of state if he becomes president.

Mr Duke, a white nationalist and former grand wizard, last week urged listeners to his radio show to vote for Mr Trump and said to do otherwise would be “treason”

“Voting for these people, voting against Donald Trump at this point is really treason to your heritage,” Mr Duke said, referring to Mr Trump’s rivals.



“I’m not saying I endorse everything about Trump, in fact I haven’t formally endorsed him. But I do support his candidacy, and I support voting for him as a strategic action. I hope he does everything we hope he will do.”

Mr Trump then found himself at a storm of criticism when he seemingly failed to disavow Mr Duke’s endorsement when he was questioned by CNN. Eventually, he told one US broadcaster that he had “spent the weekend disavowing David Duke”.

On Wednesday, Mr Duke, 65, who once served a member of the Louisiana state legislature and for several years led the Louisiana-based Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, said that while he did not agree with everything Mr Trump said, he believed he was the only candidate who would keep America out of foreign wars. He said he believed his support may have been a factor in Mr Trump seeing his numbers soar ahead of Super Tuesday, and of his successful night in which he won seven states.

It wouldn't surprise me in the least if his wish was granted if Trump got elected.

Haha, while I don't think even Trump would be that stupid, it is a dirty game Trump played by not disavowing him immediately. Now white supermacists believe Trump is one of them (which he wanted and which in fairness is probably true) and only later disavowed him 'to appease the media'.

As you say, a really sick, dirty game, which is a game to elect the leader of a huge, influential country with more armaments than it knows what to do with.   Looking at it from that point of view, why do we wonder that the world is fucked up.

Racism  and homophobia by American people????

Stop the press


hate daily by the majority of the Arab world against Jews, Christians and homosexuals and that is pushed to the sidelines

What do the left really champion

Trying to look clever at going on about what everyone knows already is an idiot who will never obtain power or actually start caring about people who do suffer racism and hate and persecution

Got to the love the left, useful idiots at best

What?!

This is a discussion about the Presidential election, that is the most powerful man in the world (who, since you brought it up, has a major role in the continuing debacle that is Israel/Palestine).

It isn't about pushing anything to the sidelines. The outcome of a Presidential election is pretty major. Donald Trump is sweeping up the Republican nomination- like it or not, he IS a real contender for the White House.

Really?

How many consecutive threads are going on about this same topic then?

Its about you lefties getting your kickers in a twist over nothing

The democrats will win, you just want to sound off how superior you think you all your in your beliefs and views by speaking about a known idiot who will never win

Are you not discussing the exact same thing on the President thread?

Oh dear, fancy prioritising something that is happening at the moment that could and will affect the whole world.  You bad, me bad, lol  Didge mad.

Hypocrisy alert. The amount of threads you have on Palestine and Israel- and you tried to spin this into one.

The other is about the election generally, this is about a white supremacist, so no.

Are you that stupid?

I mean are you really that stupid to think Trump will win

Seriously?

I don't think he will, but it is a possibility.

Only if he was mad enough to assassinate his opponent

That would be his only chance

Jesus. That would be a nasty little twosome right there!
Trump and the KKK in charge of the USA?

Recipe for World War III and beyond.....

Yep!

Quick question: is that a photo-op cut-out of Chris Christie behind the Trumpster?  He looks catatonic.  Somebody get him some warm milk...lol, preferably non-fat.
