Racist lawmaker struggling in polls. He losing his allies. His opponent could defeat him. |
A handful of major backers to Rep. Steve King (R-IA) have left him out to dry.
Purina, Intel, Land 'O Lakes, Tyson Foods and AT&T and the Republican Congressional Campaign Committee have dropped King quickly.
Corporate donors had to leave King after the eight term lawmaker made remarks in the wake of the Pittsburgh Tree of Life Synagogue massacre. It killed 11 innocent human beings. The far-right and the conservative agitators already blame Barack Obama, George Soros and the Clintons for the massacre.
They also believe that if the synagogue had an armed guard nearby. Instead of worrying about the potential threat of white extremism, they'll have you worried about migrants leaving Central American countries for the United States.
It's appalling. They might as well keep King on the bankroll. The Republicans were trying to keep their racism in the form of "dog whistles" and "soundbites."
For years, King retweeted white nationalism and Nazi propaganda. He has been on television and radio promoting the kookspiracy about white genocide. He isn't keen on race-mixing with White people.
Some of his goodies were explained here on World News Today.
His most recent remarks are "we can't restore our civilization with somebody else's babies."
Rep. Steve Stivers (R-OH) is facing a fight back in his own state cut the money train off.
I was appalled to hear about the abhorrent mass shooting at the Tree of Life Synagogue yesterday. As a veteran, I have fought overseas to defend our First Amendments rights, which includes the freedom of religion. Anti-Semitism is inexcusable in this country, and everywhere.— Steve Stivers (@RepSteveStivers) October 28, 2018
Congressman Steve King’s recent comments, actions, and retweets are completely inappropriate. We must stand up against white supremacy and hate in all forms, and I strongly condemn this behavior.— Steve Stivers (@RepSteveStivers) October 30, 2018
King stands firm that he will win reelection. He represents parts of western Iowa and the city of Sioux City.
The constituents are starting to see that King cares about his far-right allies overseas than them.
In a poll, it shows King up a point. That means he's in serious trouble.
King scoffed and said that Iowans will reelect him to Congress. He's not worried about the "savages" meddling in the election. He's doing just fine.

Have a look at all the diversity at my annual “General Bud Day Pheasant Hunt”! We had English Setters, Brittanys, German Shorthairs, and black, yellow, chocolate & white Labradors all assimilated into a fine working team. A great day in the field. pic.twitter.com/KwuBmTHO6L— Steve King (@SteveKingIA) October 30, 2018
The Republicans are using the same old tired playbook given to them by Rush Limbaugh, Sean "Softball" Hannity, The Drudge Report, Fox News and Breitbart. They are fully engaged in the culture war.
The Republican Party is accepting white extremism within its ranks.
J.D. Scholten is the Democrats only hope to oust Steve King. |
C'mon folks, the Republican Party isn't doing anything to help Americans. They've been in favor of the "status quo" and "white male privilege."
They control almost everything.
They won't if we don't get our asses out to vote this Midterm. The price is too great to allow Trump continue the course he's going.
The Republicans are going to win on the culture war. We can stop them if we get off our asses and vote this Midterm election.
