    Duke endorsed Stein because she does not support Israel.

    The Stein campaign called David Duke trash and disavowed him.

    The dishonesty here staggering.

      Oh okay, so they’re just ideological comrades…

      The politician you like best and the former head of the KKK are ideological comrades

      Say that out loud a few times.

        Duke is endorsing for Stein, because Stein does not support Israel and Duke is antisemitic.

        Koch’s is voting for Harris, because she works for the billionaire class and he is a billionaire.

        One of these two is not like the other.

          Because as everyone should know by now. The only acceptable hypocrisy is leninist hypocrisy.

            Stein earned the endorsement from a bad person by doing something good.

            Harris earned the endorsement from a bad person by doing something bad.

            If you’re saying that earning an endorsement from antisemites for going against Israel makes Stein an antisemite, by extension, for going against Israel, because that is why Duke endorsed her, then yeah that kinda is what you’re saying…

        The association alone is damning

        He just said he supports her. That’s not an association. He agrees with her on her policy towards Israel. Unless you think her policy towards Israel is unreasonable and only would be held by a white supremacist, then its a ridiculous position to try and maintain, because it basically says that anyone who opposes us support of Israel agrees with David Duke and thus is “associated” with him.

            I made my point and can defend it. You just hand waved it away with some empty accusation.

            It’s clear who has more faith in their position. Both you and I know it too.

          Huh, the Nazi agrees with her stance on Israel? I mean, fuck Israel, but I wouldn’t want that endorsement on me.

            And she denounced him. So clearly she doesn’t want it either.
