Biden described this man as a mentor, a guide & a friend. No, Byrd wasn't a grand wizard just an exalted cyclops. Which from what I can read is still a leader in the damn KKK.
So again why isn't he under the same scrutiny? Repeatedly makes racial gaffes with little to no blowback from the same people that condemn Trump.
Byrd denounced his being a part of the KKK and voted for the Civil Rights Act. He didn't hide that he was an exalted cyclops but says he regretted it. That's all in that article of yours.
There's a difference between knowing and respecting someone who made mistakes and worked to fix them and actively endorsing a hate group.
