Can explain what you mean by the use of the word "courted"?
I'm not overly familiar with the ordeal, but according to this from the Washington Post:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fact-checker/wp/2016/03/01/donald-trump-and-david-duke-for-the-record/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fact-checker/wp/2016/03/...
It doesn't sound like he is attaching himself to David Duke in any way. Politicians (everyone, really) have to communicate with people whose politics they may or may not agree with.
