Donald Trump and the KKK

Recently, David Duke, a white supremacist and KKK leader, publicly endorsed Donald Trump. Trump was asked whether or not he would distance himself from such endorsement, and he seemingly sidestepped the question. According to NPR, Trump said he would not condemn a group he knew nothing about. This is understandable and seems innocent; however, when asked about the KKK, Trump said it would be unfair to condemn a group that is “fine.” The reporter then asked about David Duke and the Ku Klux Klan once again, and Donald Trump responded with, “Honestly, I don’t know David Duke.” His excuse for this was that his earpiece was malfunctioning, but it is strange how there were some things that were heard.
