He lives in Beau Rivage, which is slumming by OT Baller standards, but it's not exactly a trailer park, either.

Suckers who send him money.

I'm glad he's living large. Much better than having him use the donations for their intended purpose.

How is he still relevant???? His staying power is INCREDIBLE. Hate mongrels usually burn themselves pretty quickly or they finally step over the line and the authorities get them in their grasp. Duke has been spreading his hate for a LOOOONNNNGGGGG time.....it would be a long time for a televangelist or a saint to be spreading hope and inspiration....but to spread the kind of hate that Dukes represents for the period of time he has managed to do is impressive. If you are a conspiracy type it would make you think that maybe his spiel is a front and that he is actually some sort of plant......

This is my question. In a normal educated society, someone like him should have been never heard from 20 years ago.
I got a freaking alert from my NOLA app yesterday popping up to tell me that Duke didn't know Scalise and wouldn't vote for him.
Who gives a shite?

In this most recent case he became relevant because political operatives on the extreme left needed to make him relevant for their own purposes. A week ago he was "irrelevant".

The cenlamar character was a nobody until he got his "scoop".

If the OP would have written this post a week ago, nobody would have cared.

Sharpton does it better, Duke never got a show on Fox news or invitations to consult with the President of the United States, or Attorney General.

Good question I guess. But thinking about it, I can't say I've really heard anything at all from or about him in the past 20 years. Have you? Where, if so?

Also, when I first saw this thread, I think so little about David Duke, that I truly honestly thought it was a misplaced thread about OT/Rant poster PJ. I swear to God.

In BR or on the north shore? He use to live in Mandeville, would see him at the gym, nice enough fella. He sure did pack on some muscle since his skinny days at LSU. Thus was before he moved to Russia I think though.

Still does, as far as I can tell. $195K one-story on Garden Ave. I'd guess Sharpton does much better.

Speaking of such, what is the latest with Farrakhan or Obama's preacher, Jeremiah Wright?

Depends, owing 4.5 million in taxes isn't much to brag about either.

He spent several yrs touring Europe, spewing his venom, so presumably he was getting some funds over there. He spent a good while in Turkey, as there is a lot of hate there for minorities. As he was convicted & sent to prison for taking his contribution monies to the casinos, I'd guess he's not getting much from US sources any more.

There is a Never-ending parade of idiotic douche bags who share his animus for "the other", who buy his racial paranoia and hatred, and give him bags of money.

We are talking about Sharpton, right?

Sounds like a HIPPA violation.
