White Supremacist Congressman Steve King Defeated In Shock GOP Primary

Oborosen said:
Too bad that whole racist angle against Trump, has been a failing tactic for some time now. Then again, if you're betting your farm on Biden and especially after the whole "then you aren't black" comment that he made.

You're pretty much digging a hole all for yourself.

He's only been in one election? The idea that it's a failing angle just isn't true. He's at record disapproval and is currently trying to start up a race war.

He barely beat the single worst campaigning presidential candidate since I've been born. Barely. He had every advantage on his side. And he barely won. With a cratering economy, riots, americans dying while he plays golf and rants on twitter like a deluded twat, he's currently on track to get his ass handed to him. That's why he's screaming about how the election is biased.

I'm a minority in the state where I live. White children are 22% of the under 18 demo in my state. No one speaks for me, not my congressman, my senators, and especially not the governor. Steve King has every right to work on the behalf of his identity group, just as Charles Schumer does without interference, Ilhan Omar does, and Ayanna Presley does.

LOL, you are so disenfranchised because one of your racist heroes got the boot.

Exaggeration of white supremacy is the exact same ploy used in CCP propaganda videos aimed at young Americans. But you don't know anything about that. Your a low watt info kinda guy.

Feenstra isn't that much of a change from King. I can see Feenstra joining the Freedom Caucus day one.

An anti-racist Republican kicked out a racist Republican from his comfortable primary seat. That is a good thing. If we get all the dyed-in-the-wool racists off of the Republican Party Primary tickets, then I think we are heading in a perfectly good direction.

Agreed, but there's a long way to go. 2020 isn't looking good for Republicans. But you may be right. We might see some distancing from vulnerable Republicans. That is a good thing and long overdue, if it happens.

We have to figure out a way to get more moderates into congress.

What would you expect from 'moderates' and who would you use as an example?

It's been my experience that most compromise comes from moderates. As for examples......slim pickens for sure. Maybe Susie Lee of Nevada and Josh Gottheimer of New Jersey for the democrats in the house and maybe Lisa Murkowski of Alaska for the republicans in the senate. Man.....I can't think of any more. :lol:

Of course you're right in theory but the country is divided and in no mood for any type of 'compromise'. Can you see any compromise from those rioters and looters on the streets these past nights? Compromise from the government agencies who corrupted the IRS, CIA, FBI or the political party who wouldn't accept the decision of the American people and the results of the election? What is left to compromise?

There is no 'compromise' now. This is going to have to play itself out and that could take about a year after the November election, I see no reason why it would end any sooner.

Good riddance, indeed. And I hope the anti-racist Republicans keep crushing and excising the racist ones, and then turn around and wipe the floor with the Democrats.

Find better heroes. Ones that aren't racist trash.

Democratic leaders are encouraging their followers to attack other Americans while out with their families, shopping, or just minding their own business while allowing businesses to be destroyed, neighborhoods to be ruined, and people murdered. And you're worried about a nobody like Steve King? Almost funny.

Trying to start a race war: That's lie 1
He had every advantage on his side: That's lie 2

Cratering economy, riots, dying Americans..etc..
I'm not sure how I should work all that in, though "ranting like a deluded twat" could just as easily be used in this instance to describe yourself.

Where has he tried to start a "race" war?
How did he have every advantage on his side, if he had nearly the hole media telling us that he was a racist, fascist, rapist. At nearly every hour of the day and on nearly every social media site?

The economy taking such a nasty hit was not his fault, nor are the riots and I don't care if he want's to play golf. But that apparently isn't happening right now, seeing as he was just recently moved to a bunker due to the riots.

Are there any other lies that you'd like to try and tell me now?

Yeah, and Sabato just moved the seat from 'leans Red' to 'likely Red". We got rid of the racist King, but sealed the seat's fate as Republican.
