New York – The Anti-Defamation League is calling on Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump to repudiate support from former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard David Duke.

In a statement Thursday, the group calls on Trump to distance himself from Duke and other white supremacists and “publicly condemn their racism.”
Duke on Wednesday urged listeners of his radio program to volunteer and vote for Trump, according to audio posted by the website Buzzfeed. He told them that voting against Trump at this point “is really treason to your heritage.”
Duke said he hadn’t formally endorsed Trump, but supports his candidacy and voting for him as “a strategic action.”
Trump has previously said he wouldn’t want Duke’s endorsement and would repudiate it “if it made you feel better.”
Why doesn’t that waste of time and money ADL stick to defending Jews ??? Why don’t they say anything about Muslim inspired hatred on campus in the US? Why do they leave it up to the ZOA? They always take on the politically safe position of condemning racists against other minorities.Or issuing a PR statement and moving on.
If you give 10 cents to the ADL, you should have your head examined.
The ADL is headed up by a left wing democrat. No wonder they jump on Duke’s “endorsement.” Did they do the same when Farrakhan supported Obama?
Hey anonymous..I am not supporting Trump. I am saying I wish the ADL would put their energies to Jewish causes. Leave the bigotry against blacks to the NAACP or Reverend Al to fight.
ADL must repudiate money contributions from rich real estate developers that evict jews from their residences on the eve of Rosh Hashana and Yom Kipur
