David Duke, a white nationalist and former Ku Klux Klan grand wizard, sees voting for anybody but Donald Trump as the equivalent of committing "treason to your heritage."

"I'm not saying I endorse everything about Trump, in fact I haven't formally endorsed him," the former Louisiana state representative said Wednesday on his radio show, the David Duke Radio Program. "But I do support his candidacy, and I support voting for him as a strategic action. I hope he does everything we hope he will do."

With that in mind, Duke encouraged listeners to "get off your duff" and "get active" volunteering for Trump. "Get off your rear end that's getting fatter and fatter for many of you everyday on your chairs," Duke said. "When this show's over, go out, call the Republican Party, but call Donald Trump's headquarters, volunteer. They're screaming for volunteers. Go in there, you're gonna meet people who are going to have the same kind of mindset that you have. Educate them."
