Democrats and the media couldn’t wait to jump on reports that the Ku Klux Klan was in Nevada supporting Trump.

They ran the story despite the fact that several people on social media reported that at least one of the men decked out in “klan” gear at Cimarron Memorial High School appeared to be black.
And of the “clan” members is black so I don’t buy it for a second lol

@KristinnFR it’s hard to tell in the photo (I didn’t notice till I got closer) but the one on the right had a black hand

1) The poster says ‘New England.’ 2) Look at their hands. These ‘kkk members’ are black. #NVcaucus https://t.co/27Yv5cyiU5

The New York Daily News, who makes no secret of its dislike for Trump, was one of the first to seize on the opportunity to tie Trump supporters to the KKK.

And they weren’t alone: people used the pictures as “proof” that the Klan supports Trump.
Long lines, not enough ballots, double voting and #KKK. It’s a bit nuts at the #nvcaucus. https://t.co/FpBJbK7DbC pic.twitter.com/dVyLnNIytq
