MSNBC host Joe Scarborough ripped into Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump Monday, saying that his refusal to condemn the Ku Klux Klan during a Sunday CNN interview was completely disqualifying. “That’s disqualifying right there. It’s breathtaking, that’s disqualifying right there. To say you don’t know about the Ku Klux Klan? You don’t know about David Duke ?” Scarborough said. “The most stunning thing, Willie Geist , is this isn’t buying him a single vote,” he argued. “I mean, is he really so stupid that he thinks southerners aren’t offended by the Ku Klux Klan and David Duke? Is he really so ignorant of southern voters that he thinks this is the way to their heart?” OO.ready(function() { OO.Player.create('ooyalaplayer-9neW1mMTE6UxAUezFUyBQhh8422vcuAO', '9neW1mMTE6UxAUezFUyBQhh8422vcuAO'); }); Please enable Javascript to watch. “It’s hard to imagine an easier political question than ‘Will you disavow David Duke and the Ku Klux Klan?'” Geist agreed. “Unless you don’t really want to disavow David Duke and the Ku Klux Klan…” “I’m sorry, I don’t understand,” Scarborough continued “What’s the purpose? You don’t know the Klan? Who does this help?” “The Klan,” Republican strategist Nicolle Wallace responded simply. Watch above, via MSNBC.
