    I think we can both agree that Duke is more drawn to Trump and his policies than he was to Obama and his policies. :)

    @bobrek

    If you answered a question that I'm asking someone else, can you not consider I consider I was a looking for something from the person it was intended for.

    I don't need a long ass explanation on how you understood the question cause it wasn't meant for you, and it was specific to something written by the person it was intended for.

    I don't really care if you think things like gun control appeal to Duke about Trump.

    Not being rude the misunderstanding leads to ten more posts

    Wow...I may be old, but I do know that 15 minutes is included in “within the last hour”. I clearly stated a response in my two posts and the odd thing is that I am pretty sure we agree on this subject so I am not sure why you are responding in this way. It is also odd because you clicked he like button in both of my posts regarding Trump and Duke.

    Memory jokes are the result of you acting like you don't remember something.

    It's my fault in the grand scheme because I don't have to engaging

    I liked because you were honest instead of being obtuse. I still needed to say these arguments start when I was asking the question to someone else specifically to begin with

    You're being inconsiderate and when I say i was looking for something from someone else I still get long ass explanation about your response

    Do not care wasn't asking you

    The idea that there were some fine people amongst the neo-Nazi marchers would be one. The idea that both the protesters and neo-Nazis were equivalent. His anti-immigrant rhetoric would be an issue. His anti-regulation stances and moves would be another.

    If look at Trump's past issues that David Duke would agree with we see the whole birther issue, we Trump barring people residences based on the color of their skin.

    Let's get that particular issue straight. Charges would not have been leveled at Trump if people were denied residences because they didn't have good credit, or an insufficient salary etc. Charges are only brought when minorities with a certain credit, salary, and credentials are shown different properties than whites with the same salary, credit scores, and credentials. Often realtors who discriminate will still rent to minorities but they try and rent properties in different areas than they will to whites. It is 100% not the case that Trump would have rented to blacks if they had sufficient credit scores and income. Charges would have never been brought.

    Trump's rhetoric and general treatment of minorities are probably another of the areas where Duke and Trump share some agreement. Trump's rhetoric about calling other nations shithole countries would be an area that Duke might support.

    I'm sure Duke appreciated Trump coming out and forcefully stating that he didn't welcome Duke's support, and wouldn't accept support from any white supremacist. Trump was given a perfect situation to do that, but he opted not to.

    What does any of that have to do with Joy Reid?

    first you say that trump didnt know duke then you say everyone knows who duke is then you finally acknowledge that trump lied about not knowing duke, but say it doesnt matter.

    first...
    then you say...
    then you say...
    you did not answer so i will ask a second time...can you provide any info or links showing that msnbc said trump and duke were "associated"? you seem hung up on the word "associated" for some reason. you are the only one i see claiming that people said they were "associated". again, i think you are trying to argue semantics...before we go any further can you give me your definition of "associated"?

    and i know i keep bringing this up, but i find it so bizarre that someone could go from a hardcore obama supporter/defender to a hardcore trump supporter/defender. i would think a hardcore obama supporter/defender such as yourself would really resent trump, whose main goal as president seems to be undoing and erasing all of obamas legislative achievements and legacy. unless you really dont care about policy issues...perhaps its just affection for "the leader", no matter who they are or what they are doing.

    I don't care that Trump tells those stupid lies.

    I would care if he was associated with Duke.

    I don't know why y'all get worked up over stupid meaningless lies. Who cares if he is aware of Duke or not?

    I defended Trump on collusion. I was right.

    He is not a double agent rapist

    You haven't been shown to be right on collusion at all. That has not been determined and we don't know even know all of the evidence. You made claims about what Joy Reid was doing in regards to Donald Trump and David Duke. Nobody has seen what you seemed to be talking about.

    Why? Why is this not a problem? Do you think he only lies about the small things?

    Define "associated". Are the 2 of the in the same room together at any point? No. Have they shown to be on the same side on many items...many of which align with the alt-right/KKK? Yeah, they are.

    It's not the point. It's that he is just incapable of telling the truth. As I asked above, do you really think it's just the small things he's lying about?

    Absolutely none of that has been proven to be true or false. Since he's been proven to be completely incapable of telling the truth for even the smallest, stupid things, what makes you think he's telling the truth now?

    I don't like excusing the stupid lies. I guess it would be more accurate to say I haven't cared about anything he has lied about.

    I understand if the lies about Stormy Daniels for instance both you. Pretty much everything a President does is open as far as governing. I don't worry there is something I need to know that I don't.

    Take for instance the comments on the tax bill. That stuff is public information, you can make your own evaluation.

    I have accepted he is President and just not to let it bother me.

    it says a lot that you get way more upset with people who criticize the president for lying than you do with the president for lying.

    and you didnt answer my question so ill ask a 3rd time. can you provide any articles or links showing that msbnc claimed an "association" b/t trump and duke? and also, for the 2nd time, what is your definition of "associated"?

    MSNBC doesn't write articles. It's cable news

    I'm not upset you called him a liar, I don't care.

    Associating the two is forcing Trump to come out with some stupid denouncing of a guy he has nothing to do with then wondering why he doesn't do it

    You are making very little sense.

    He didn't ask for an article from MSNBC, he asked for an article showing that MSNBC was claiming that Duke and Trump were associates as you claimed.

    I'm not sure why you think it's a stupid idea that a person who supposed to be the leader of the United States would denounce and make clear that he didn't welcome the support of nationally known white supremacist who announced that he supported and agreed with Trump. That seems like it would make complete sense and be a non-issue if the leader only took a leadership stance and announced that he didn't welcome and would not accept the support of David Duke. But a sizeable portion of his base also agrees with Duke on those issues so Trump chose to lie about it.

    By the way, a number of us have asked for and are still waiting for you to show us what false association between Trump and Duke was being broadcast by Joy Reid and MSNBC.

    Because if it was so bad plenty of agencies would report on it like they do with some of the horrible reporting on FOX. Or if they were going into some other controversies surrounding Joy Reid.

    The point is that you still have yet to point out what Joy Reid reported about there being an association between Trump and Duke. Nor, have you clarified by what you mean by association. Until you can do these things you are just going to confuse people, which might be your purpose.

    It's what I remember from watching two years ago.

    And I gave you a specific example. Asking Donald Trump to disavowed some irrelevant figure from the past he never met in the past or now.

    Why are we even talking about Duke
