Ex-KKK Leader David Duke Loved Trump's Star Of David Tweet
Avid Donald Trump supporter and former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke was a big fan of the presumptive GOP nominee's controversial tweet over the weekend, which was widely read as anti-Semitic.
After the Trump camp pulled an anti-Hillary Clinton tweet that included a six-point star and posted an edited version, Duke tweeted Saturday that he welcomes the exposure of "the hidden hand."
Trump's original tweet featured a meme, apparently plumbed from a corner of the white supremacist internet, labeling Clinton the "most corrupt candidate ever," inside a six-point star and overlaid on a bed of money.
Trump later claimed the image was a "sheriff's star" and blamed the "dishonest media" for labeling the image a Star of David.
