Rep. Steve King (R-IA) is attempting to fundraise off of the controversy that’s swelled in recent days over his remarks about white supremacy to the New York Times earlier this month, the Des Moines Register reported.
In a campaign email to supporters, King criticized the “unhinged left” and Republican “NeverTrumpers” for the backlash to his remarks, despite condemnation and calls for his resignation from people in his party who are friendly with Trump.
“The unhinged left has teamed up with Republican ‘NeverTrumpers’ and is pulling out all the stops to destroy me,” King reportedly wrote, blaming the “rabid leftist media” for attacking him over his support of Trump and his stance on immigration.
After King questioned why the terms white supremacist and white nationalist were considered offensive, Republicans and Democrats denounced his remarks. Republican leadership moved to strip King of all his committee assignments and the House voted in favor of a disapproval resolution over the matter.
Hey Steve, You should have used a Confederate Flag banner and a few Swastikas for a better response from, you know , your core constituency
And he will get a ton of money too. He was not shy about his views, his constituents have known him for a long time and felt comfortable voting for him because it’s one of them, and believes in the same things as they do…
Steve, you’re still in office - therefore the left has not destroyed you.
But once that video of you dancing in college comes out - you’re done.
The Unhinged Left. Which apparently includes Kevin McCarthy and a majority of the GOP House Caucus. I been telling you all the GOP is a Stalinist Party, in method and ideology.
Mister Western Civilization should have a statue of Aaron Burr in his office. Burr could become Stevie’s patron saint as he, like Stevie, believed that Mexicans were inferior and unfit for self-governance. Just think, Sioux City, Iowa, as the next capital of Mexico. Keep those dollars rollin’ in, folks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burr_conspiracy
