I got another David Duke Robocall right before the Final Debate last night.

This one was pretty long. I don't think it was an accident that it was right before the debate. It went on about how the only person America hates more than Trump is David Duke, that it loves minorities, blah blah blah....illegals...blah blah blah, and who knows what else. Want to take our guns, blah blah blah.

What hudspa. He must have a following out there, to be spending the big bucks it takes to run for Senate.

How do you get so many calls from David Duke? I've never experienced that.

For your future reference, it's spelled "chutzpah."
 
His Wikipedia entry is fun:
David Ernest Duke is an American white nationalist, politician, antisemitic conspiracy theorist, Holocaust denier, and former Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan.

How the **** does a guy like him get elected? How have the Republicans not purged him?

Judging from the # of telemarketing calls I get, my provider sold the number. But a lot of robocalls just dial random numbers in area codes. I'm not far from KKK territory.

Did Democrat officials try to block his participation in 1988 Nope

But Republican officials tried to block his participation in 1992

Did he win the Democratic nomination in '88? Nope.

Did he then decide the Republicans were better for him? Yes.

In the Christian Science Monitor:

Trump denounces robocalls from David Duke's campaign.

Spokespeople from Donald Trump's campaign quickly and explicitly disavowed a robocall from David Duke linking the former Ku Klux Klan leader to the Republican presidential nominee.

The CS Monitor went on to try to smear Trump with the association anyway.
