Racist Iowa Republican Steve King asks why racism has such a negative stigma
Iowa Republican Congressperson Steve King is an ignorant insult to all humanity.
The Hill reports:
Read the restRep. Steve King (R-Iowa) is questioning how terms such as "white nationalist" and "white supremacist" became offensive in the U.S.
White nationalist, white supremacist, Western civilization how did that language become offensive? King asked in an interview with The New York Times published on Thursday. Why did I sit in classes teaching me about the merits of our history and our civilization?
The comments came as part of an expansive report from the newspaper on Kings hard-line views on immigration and how they mirror much of what President Trump has pushed for during his presidency.
