    The KKK is the military arm of the democrats. When they lost out they decided to entire politics as the dixiecrats enacting sharecropping and jim crow. They pushed against the civil rights bill of 1964 and in their hayday attempted to silence and censor folks like Frederick Douglass and William Wilberforce.

          The KKK today doesn't much care for Republicans or Democrats.

          OTOH, the Communist Party USA has quit nominating their own candidates and has been throwing all of their support behind Democrats since 2008.

                Where did he do so?

                The first time there seemed to be an endorsement of Trump by the KKK he gave a sort of non-answer to it, saying he didn't know enough about the group to make much of a statement regarding it. Now perhaps he's been more forceful since then and I'm unaware but I'd be interested in seeing where and what he said.

                  Doesn't matter, you're still grouped in with those who support Trump whether you're an American citizen or not.
                  Your high-school girly point-and-shriek tactics are amusing, though. Meh Gerbil has you pinned - if any party has connections to the KKK, and policies that hurt the black community, it's the Democrats.
                  Amazing how the brains of conservatives work. The racist KKK endorses Trump, the republican, and have always supported republicans in general. Republicans try to inhibit the ability of blacks to participate in the electoral process, it was conservatives, the dixiecrats, aka republicans, who fought to uphold segragation, and Jim Crow laws, and to you're mind that means that blacks should support republicans. I guess you people just think that black people in general are just stupid.

                    Why do you think that the alt right, the KKK, the white nationalist movement is supporting Trump?

                      As for David Duke, Trump explicitly denounced him months ago:

                      Source: CNN

                      (March 2016) Donald Trump issued a crystal clear disavowal Thursday of former Ku Klux Klan Grand Wizard David Duke after stumbling last weekend over a question about the hate group leader on CNN.

                      "David Duke is a bad person, who I disavowed on numerous occasions over the years," Trump said on MSNBC's "Morning Joe."

                      "I disavowed him. I disavowed the KKK," Trump added. "Do you want me to do it again for the 12th time? I disavowed him in the past, I disavow him now."

                      http://www.cnn.com/2016/03/03/politi...kkk/index.html

                      He had to be forced into his denunciation of the racists. His first answer was "I don't know anything about these people, never heard of David Duke." Do you really believe Trump is that stupid? He knows exactly who his base is, and he made sure that they knew that he was forced into denoucing them.

                        The point is that they can and do speak for themselves and they don't need the likes of you, or Meh Gerbil, telling them that they are to dumb to know which party has their best interests at heart.

                          Wow. Guilt by association much?

                          If the KKK had a lick of sense, they'd vote straight Democrat.

                              And? You don't think that ex convicts should have the right to vote?

                                Voting is a privilege. Commit a felony, lose the privilege.

                                Universal sufferage is a terrible idea anyway. You get idiots voting for the white guy 'cause he's white, or the woman 'cause she's a woman, etc. Such people have no business determining who runs the country.
