THIS is where they draw the line?

I remember when Duke ran against Edwin Edwards for Governor of LA. Edwards (known even then for crookedness) put out bumper stickers:

Republicans: We Won’t Back ‘Hate-Filled Fraud’ David Duke’s Campaign.

“We’re far too busy backing hate-filled fraud Donald Trump’s campaign.”

[informed]

“Hate-Filled Fraud”??

I’m sorry, exactly which republican candidate are they talking about?

[antisachetdethe]

They won’t back a “Hate-Filled Fraud,” but they had no problem supporting a “Shit-Filled Diaper”

[bdtex]

When the Republican Party says they won’t support a candidate,that’s an endorsement.

[yvonneofnc]

“David Duke is a convicted felon and a hate-filled fraud who does not embody the values of the Republican Party.”

Au contraire.

[dv01]

It is less of a line. More like a little puddle of pee they don’t want to step in… yet.

The party of Lincoln and the Southern Strategy is tearing itself apart.

…unless it looks like he is winning, in which case we will be all in. #partyoftrump

[centralasiaexpat]

This is too tempting for Trump. You KNOW he’s going to blow this up for the LA. GOP, somehow.

To Louisiana’s and all Repuglicans, like the sign in the curio shop says:

You break it, you’ve bought it!

And with the nomination Drumpf, you have let the genie out of a shattered bottle.

So many “hate-filled frauds,” so little time…

[georgekaplan]

David Duke once said that if you scratch a republican underneath you will find a David Duke.

[hankg]

Did they check with the Führer before issuing that statement?

[ajaykalra]

Shorter GOP: Duke is a has been, we like new racists, such as Trump; gives us the national audience.

[ncsteve]

More of a resource allocation thing, really. There are only so many hate-filled frauds they can give their support to at a time, and it would be deeply unfair to the hate-filled fraud they’re already committed to now to divert money, time and energy to supporting a new one. And, besides, the one they’re already supporting hates it when people aren’t fair to him. Hates it, hates it, hates it.

“People know David Duke is reprehensible, we just can’t have that.”

[DuckmanGR]

I knew Irony when he was young and strong. I’m saddened by his passing.
