David Duke Jr. doesn’t think his name is unfortunate. He likes the way it flows. Three syllables, alliterative. Easy to remember.
“I feel like it’s a nice name, it kind of flows smoothly,” he told Brian Lewis. “But one day I’m just hoping that when you look it up, it won’t be so much negative around it. We’re progressing as a society and as a country and for me, I just want it to mean something in a positive light.”
Negative indeed. The (currently) more famous David Duke is also infamous: a white supremacist, convicted felon, neo-Nazi and former grand wizard of the Ku Klux Klan.
