Damn shame. Steve is a solid conservative. Beaten by money.

I’ve no idea, but per wikipedia, he was backed by Ben Shapiro. My guess is he’s at least less conservative than King, possibly a closet Never Trumper.

2020 U.S. House campaign

In 2019, Feenstra announced he would challenge incumbent Republican U.S. Representative Steve King in the 2020 Republican primary in Iowa’s 4th congressional district. King, a nine-term incumbent, has a record of making inflammatory remarks, including support of the term “white nationalist.” Republican Party leadership is supporting Feenstra in the primary.During the course of the primary, Feenstra raised more money in contributions than King, and was supported by the United States Chamber of Commerce and National Right to Life Committee.Feenstra’s candidacy
has also been supported by conservative political commentator and radio host, Ben Shapiro, who urged his Twitter followers to donate to Feenstra’s campaign.

I do not know if it is a shame. I do not know much about Representative King at all really but I do know I that not fond of the older GOPe designated losers.

However he did get money from the Republican Main Street Partnership which is a moderate Republican organization and the Chamber of Commerce.
