WASHINGTON – With Donald Trump’s inauguration just days away, excitement is building among white supremacists all over the country. Perhaps none are more excited for the event, though, than ex-Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan and former Senate hopeful David Duke, who is racing around these final days to find the absolute perfect robe for the inauguration ball.
“Steve Bannon got me tickets and I am just freaking out,” Duke said. “I want to really ‘wow’ at the ball, but I of course don’t want to overshadow The Donald or his wife. Do I go with the all-white robe or do I wear the one with understated, yet elegant gold trim for special events like this and cross burnings? I know I’m getting down to the wire, but I’m just so indecisive!”
In 2009, Michelle Obama helped launch Jason Wu’s career when she wore a custom silk chiffon dress by the young designer to her husband’s first inaugural ball. Duke says that he’s “open to the idea” of supporting an up-and-comer, as long as the designer doesn’t use muslin. “No muslin!” Duke shouted. “No muslin! Round up the muslin!” It is unclear what Duke has against muslin, but any hopeful designers should take note.
In a recent press release, Ivanka Trump announced that she will be releasing a line of white silk cloaks as part of her clothing line’s winter collection as “an homage to Duke and her daddy’s other new friends.”
