As 2019 got underway, Rep. Steve King’s approach to race finally started catching up with him. The far-right Iowan made some highly unfortunate comments about white nationalism and white supremacy, and soon, Republican leaders agreed to strip King of his committee assignments.
Rep. Steve King posted a meme Saturday about a hypothetical civil war between “blue states” fighting over which bathroom to use and “red states” with trillions of bullets. On the surface, it’s a problem, to put it mildly, when a sitting federal lawmaker publicly speculates about a violent confrontation pitting half the United States against the other. Adding insult to injury was the transphobic message in King’s ridiculous argument.King’s home state of Iowa was featured in the image as a “blue” state – which means in the congressman’s vision of a second American civil war, his own constituents would be among the targets for the “red” states’ 8 trillion bullets.
MaddowBlog He doesn’t even know what the hell the Civil War was. Moron.
MaddowBlog This, guy King dreams of an all white America in power.
MaddowBlog It's just what these embiciles want a civil war to give the remains of a torn and ripped up USA to Putins Russia .
MaddowBlog The problem is either w/the people of Iowa or the House of Representatives 4not impeaching this guy from office. It's a travesty that he continues to make sensational, inflammatory statements which endeavor 2pit Americans against eachother. Rep. Steve King is a national disgrace.
