Asked if he'd broadly distance himself from those groups, Trump demurred, saying he knew nothing about their support for his bid for the Republican presidential nomination.
"I have to look at the group. I mean, I don't know what group you're talking about," Trump said. "You wouldn't want me to condemn a group that I know nothing about. I'd have to look. If you would send me a list of the groups, I will do research on them and certainly I would disavow if I thought there was something wrong. You may have groups in there that are totally fine -- it would be very unfair. So give me a list of the groups and I'll let you know."
In fairness, nobody has ever heard of the kkk. They are an unknown group. So Trump is correct not to rush to judgment.
It wasn't a trick question about some obscure group. It was specifically David Duke and the KKK
Duke endorsed him a few days ago......Trump should be aware
To play dumb is just ridiculous. Trump is afraid to stick his neck out to condemn the KKK? Is he that afraid to alienate his racist supportersCome on Donald....no brainer

He didn't ask him to condemn the KKK, he asked him to condemn David Duke. Did you listen to the clip, comrade big guy?
Trump punted
He said Duke was a former member of the KKK. So was Robert Byrd. He never asked Trump if he condemns the KKK.
But your thread title's a lie, comrade big guy. Trump wasn't ever asked to condemn the KKK, so he couldn't have refused.
You could have said he refused to condemn someone he identified as a former KKK member. What about you, comrade big guy? Do you condemn former KKK member Robert Byrd, or are you refusing to condemn the KKK?
