After Mitt Romney on Monday published a tweet condemning Donald Trump for avoiding a disavowal of former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke during a Sunday interview, a couple of conservative pundits suggested that the denouncement of the KKK could have come from a liberal.

Tucker Carlson, Fox News host and editor of the Daily Caller, linked’s Romney’s statement to President Obama.

And conservative radio host Laura Ingraham suggested Romney’s tweet could have been written by Mother Jones.
