It dont mean crap who endorsed u

Putin says things like that because he knows it influences people in ways he desires. There is an absolute massive industry the Russian government created to push their stuff. It is meaningless when it comes from him, because he doesn't actually endorse anyone, he is stirring shit.

The KKK are, A. in the US and voters, and B. endorse candidates they feel most suit their ideology. So a US presidential candidate getting an endorsement from the KKK, vs Putin saying he likes one, are two different things.

Noone in their mind wants kkk endorsement. It's 100% setup . And Trump s campaign rejected the endorsement

It doesn't matter that he didn't accept it. The KKK's endorsement is the KKK saying that you are the candidate that is in their favor. Simply being in the favor of the KKK is a black mark.

What is 100% a set-up? The KKK endorsement? No, they really did endorse Trump, as an organization. Are you talking about PD standing there, with that sign? Sure, he went there to do that. Was he an agent of the government, or some influential organization? No, he is just an internet troll, that doesn't meet the requirements to be an agent provocateur. Further, what he did, did not make it seem as though the group, he had infiltrated, did something they had not, in order to malign them with the general public/government of review. He stood there, with a sign, that said something that is true.
