True, but he could issue a repudiation of Duke's comments.

Here's how easy it is.....

"I do not want or need the support of David Duke or his like-minded automatons."

That is his biggest problem.  He can't leave well enough alone.

Go back to the Gold Star family.....if Trump has just said "I disagree with Mr. and Mrs. Khan, but their son is a hero, and I respect and appreciate his sacrifice", it would have been over with then and there.  And no.....that's not being PC....it's being smart and civil.  But no, he had to be thin-skinned, and ramble on about his "sacrifices" (like sacrificing a few dollars is the same as sacrificing your life) and how the Khan's "have no right to criticize me" (actually, they do).

Just admit it....he isn't coming for your guns, so you don't care what he does.  Be a man and admit it.
