"""Rep. Steve King Releases Statement – Debunks New York Times Report and Outrageous Accusations of Racism""" On Thursday The New York Times published a hit piece on Rep. Steve King (R-IA) and Trump voters. Reporter Trip Gabriel published the piece This quote by Rep. King is what got the most attention. According to reporter Gabriel, Steve reportedly said, “White nationalist, white supremacist, Western civilization — how did that language become offensive?” Mr. King said. “Why did I sit in classes teaching me about the merits of our history and our civilization?”

Of course, this caused an uproar in Washington and on all of the liberal networks — as you would expect if it were true.

Incorrect and unsurprising.

My post was #8.

King will be reelected in 2020 by his district
...............................................
He’s not. Already the IA GOP has people lined up to primary him. Which is a shame because he’s one of the most honest politicians who will call a spade a spade.
*************************************************************
You smoking that funny weed again? King was primaried in 2018, UNSUCCESSFULLY. Let the open-borders globalists primary him again in 2020, they’ll FAIL AGAIN to defeat this American patriot.

I can’t say I am disappointed with him because he is carrying on as expected. Just another tin-pot rino.

>>> GOP has no spine

Not just the GOP in Congress, but plenty holier-than-thou “conservative” pundits and blog opinion writers too.

Instead of asking themselves how reliable the source and waiting for 24 hr rule, all jumped right in and pile on Rep. Steve King because of the NYT trash piece.

Next time you read/hear from these people, keep that in mind.

The people want two things above all else: A secure Southern border, and nationalized hospital, physician, and nursing services.

The Democrats will give them one.

The Republicans will give them neither.

Guess which party is going to disappear.

Very true, and the GOP never misses an opportunity to repulse its base with its putrid cowardice and treacherous backstabbing.

I really cannot think of a negative enough word to describe the GOP.

I called Rep. King’s WDC office earlier today - he is not accepting calls, and the mailbox is full.

The goal of the LIEberal establishment is to rid the Congress of ALL Real Americans by any means necessary.

Rep. King shines the spotlight of truth on the LIEberal scumbags, so he must go. I hope and pray that he does not quit the Congress - that he stays there and continues to call them out for their anti-American skulduggery!

Rep. King is another “Republican scalp.”

Who is next?

Exactly. This is pure Alinsky by the Uniparty. Isolate King and destroy him. Then when the opportunity arises move on to the next person who opposes the progressive corportist agenda. Pretty soon nobody will be left to oppose them.

Steve King should dump the R label and become an independent. So should anyone else who is tired of the gutless wonders in the GOPe.

Illegitimi Non Carborundum!

We “normals” have to at all times be aware that the LIEberal establishment is trying to divide and conquer us, one by one!

We cannot! We must not!

Let the bastards grind us down!
