The Uniparty claims another victim. He should have never apologized.

Republicans are ball-less, spineless, beta cuck a-holes, in plain English.

It’s time for the GOP to go the way of the Wiggs.

I hope that President Trump forms his own party in 2020, and tells the Republican Party to go FK itself, sideways, with a splintered fence post. The GOP is no longer worth the effort of saving. It needs to be destroyed. I’m done with them.

Pure idiocy on his part. Really, I don’t think a Congressman who says that necessarily should be on the Judiciary Committee.

Steve King is being singled out for his “free speech,” while Democrats like that newbie Muslim witch from Deerborn, Michigan calls President Trump a MotherFolker and that’s A-OK with Pelosi and all Democrats, except Senator Manchin?

The Squishy House Republicans can GO TO HELL

Steve King is one of the last real Republicans. He’s a strong representative of the Trump Movement. We all should stand with him. By standing with King, we stand with Western Civilization and the Christian faith that makes it possible.

Keeping the false narrative alive = deep state game.

The false narrative that conservatives are racist.

In his actions Steve King is serving the deepest interests of the deep state.

Thank you for posting that link. Too few FReepers will pause long enough from their stone throwing to read it.

Steve King is an anti-Trumper based on his comments during the election.

Once the deep state plays out their Steve King card, their game is over.

It’s been a very weak card for several years now, anyway.

They have no ace against our Trump.
