Prominent white nationalist David Duke defended Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump during a radio appearance on Monday, arguing the media was “smearing” the real estate mogul “unfairly.”
The former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard said on Fox News Radio’s “The Alan Colmes Show” that while he was urging his “people” to vote Trump, that didn’t amount to giving Trump his personal endorsement. Duke said last week that said it was “treason” not to vote for Trump.
Colmes asked if there was a difference between those words of support and an endorsement. Duke insisted there was a difference because he has problems with some of Trump’s policy positions, most notably the candidate’s approach to Israel.
“I didn’t go to the media about this. I didn’t make a media issue out about this,” Duke said. “A very biased media tried to make an issue, and we’re talking about how they’re really smearing Donald Trump unfairly and with a lot of deception by the major media.”
Duke was referring to reporters who repeatedly asked Trump questions about whether or not he would disavow Duke and his supporters.
Duke also said he considers himself “a human rights activist,” not a white nationalist.

I think David Duke is a false flag operative, sent into the fray by a cabal of terrified G.O.P. Senators.
Leave Donald alllooooooone!
Lie down with dogs, get up with fleas…or, in this case, slobber some dog’s knob, get a mouthful of dog semen.
How’s it taste, Donald?
His members might be illiterate but they do enjoy hair-splitting as long as it’s not black and kinky…
